BUSINESS groups are protesting Fomema Sdn Bhd’s increased fee and frequency of medical examinations for foreign workers as the decisions were made without any discussion with stakeholders.

Malaysian Muslim Restaurant Owners’ Association, Malaysian Indian Restaurant Owners’ Association, Federation of Malaysian Business Associations, and Malaysian Indian Muslim Chamber Of Commerce And Industry in a joint statement said the groups only found out about the increase in foreign workers’ annual health fees upon visiting the Fomema website.
