13MP: Reliance on foreign workers to be reduced by 2030
KUALA LUMPUR: Reliance on foreign workers will be reduced from the current 15 per cent to 10 per cent by 2030.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said that to support this effort, the implementation of the Multi-Tiered Levy Mechanism will be enforced more comprehensively to encourage employers to shift towards automation, mechanisation, and the hiring of local workers.
The prime minister was speaking at the tabling of the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) in the Dewan Rakyat today.
