Opposition Leader Voices Concern Over Mandatory Use of Migrant Worker Dormitories
Opposition leader and MDP chairperson Fayyaz Ismail raised concerns over reports that the Muizzu administration would require employers to use migrant worker dormitories to be developed by Malaysian company Atilze Digital under a 30-year concession. Homeland Security Minister Ali Ihusaan confirmed the arrangement, saying separate accommodation for unskilled migrant workers is government policy, while Malaysian media reported employer fees of US$100 rising to US$120 per worker monthly, with US$5 shared with the Maldives government.

the reports' own quoted words, each once
…it is of significant concern in terms of the mandatory requirement for Employers to use these facilities. There is no issue in a foreign party providing such services without the mandatory requirement.
They proposed to develop dormitories. It is also a policy of this government. We want migrant workers, especially those in the unskilled category, to be provided separate accommodations
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
