- They cannot legally work, nor send their children to school. They are at risk of exploitation, abuse - even caning. They are the 150,000 asylum seekers and refugees who have fled their homelands for Malaysia. 101 East investigates whether authorities and the UN are doing enough to protect the world's most vulnerable.
Her newborn baby was in intensive care, the pain of her delivery still achingly raw. But things were about to get a lot worse for Khei Chi Soh, a refugee from Myanmar.
One day after her daughter was born, immigration officers arrived at her bedside at a Kuala Lumpur hospital. They told her she could see her baby one last time. Then they took the distraught young woman to a detention centre for illegal migrants. For a month, she did not know whether her daughter had lived or died.
Khei is one of at least 150,000 asylum seekers and refugees who have fled their homelands for Malaysia. But instead of finding sanctuary, all too often what awaits them is abuse and exploitation - even at the hands of authorities.
Pursued by a government intent on stemming the influx of migrants, refugees say the UN's refugee agency is also failing them.
Malaysia has refused to sign the UN Convention on Refugees, meaning that those who come here must register with the UNHCR and have their claims of asylum certified before they can join long waiting lists to move to another country.
Often it can take a decade. They live in fear of the police, who they say regularly demand money in exchange for not hauling them off to detention centres notorious for abuse.
Forbidden from working or sending their children to school, it is a fragile existence for many as they struggle to survive in society's shadows.
In this extensive investigation, complete with undercover filming, 101 East exposes the hidden, fear-filled world refugees inhabit in Malaysia and asks, who is going to help them?

Whatever the reasons for the anti-refugee attitudes of Malaysians, there is no excuse for mistreatment of detainees. The treatment of the woman who gave birth while in custody is despicable.
get this right, there are people coming into malaysia with no full legal documents, how are we supposed to check their background. criminal background, disease background, etc.. and there are people that came here to be in the prostitution sector which is illegal here.. if it is horrible here, why come here? we have a corrupted government to deal with.. if they come from a warring state, then it is more important to check the background. so they came here saying it is easy to get in... why? corrupted people are mistreating these poor people because they are easy target of scam because of their illegal state..
before anyone condemns Malaysia, take a look at your home country first.
or even the state of the refugees.
just think, if Malaysia is so bad, why do the refugees continue to flock there.
I am from Singapore, very sad that my country can't do more than it is doing now, which is nothing.
Beng Chiat Seah
Oh well done u
Very fair comment👍
If Malaysia is a bad country and treating foreigner badly. Why they keep coming. Shooh shooh . Go back to their homeland. Idiots
Shut up fool
Beng Chiat Seah shut up
Armpit Chuck idiot
Unless they are migrating because of a war in their own country, why should other countries take them in? They come illegally to another country expecting other government to feed them and house them when that other goverment can't feed and house it own citizens. How is that reasonable? They are allowed to go back to their own countries to their families, so if that asilium is so bad, just go back home.
Am here because Al Jazeera reported inaccurately on Malaysia in Year 2020.
Since Al Jazeera is champion of human rights, how come Al Jazeera do not do a documentary on human rights of migrant workers in Middle East countries, especially on housemaids (from Philippines) whom are mistreated and often sent in body bags / coffins back to Philippines. Blessing in disguise that they moved their office out of Malaysia (in early 2000, if I recalled correctly). Maybe just to discredit Malaysia's achievement on the fight against Covid while seeing their home country, Qatar Covid-19 counts reaches 100,000 mark.
Producers of the documentary by Al Jazeera is just "intellectually challenged" to do proper research and not doing a balance report, ie from all angles / perspective. How did the producers can approve the programme to be aired. Al Jazeera reporters, editors, materials researchers and producers had ethically failed and with zero integrity and responsibility on their reports. Wannabe to be international news outlet but failed flat and turn out to be another FOX News that spit false news and might be turning into an possible PR company or tool to discredit individual(s), companies and now a country.
they did one on dubai and their human rights violations ....
Ahmad Bannaga Idris maybe they did the documentary on Dubai and lead to boycott on Qatar in the Middle East.
alek bau vill just go google Philippines maid in Middle East, read up those articles
Thats what you get when Najib is sitting as Prime Sinister.
If life in malaysia for refugees are so horrible, how is it that the refugees are still continuing to come here? Granted that some refugees are being oppressed and we should help those in need. Often the ones who are criticizing are the ones who did little to help. Just saying.
Rc. Dingstyle yes. I have helped saved about 13 lives (vietnamese refuge) in a Refugee center in Triang, Pahang in 1994.
Have you?
The aggressor towards refugees are often the local population unfortunately. They feel threatened when faced with the incoming new culture/language/lifestyle that they fail to see that every person is a the same human being, just diff nationality etc. This is compounded further with evil whispers of imagined threat and danger to the local populace that they lash out against the immigrants. This is happening not only in asia but in europe and africa as well.
syed azhar syed ibrahim because they are fleeing death 💀
because being arrested is better than running from death
oh simple... malaysia is transit points not their real destination...
Wow, how did you get a drone to fly inside an immigration detention center? Didn't the authorities know about this?
How many Malaysian are watching this?
Don't ask!
+1
Question: China, India,Myanmar,Indonesia,Philippines,Sri Lanka,Thailand,Cambodia,Vietnam,Laos,Bangladesh, Pakistan do what?..sit around and spread legs?? some of these people overstayed and some came in by illegal ways including sea borders..
I was refugee in Indonesia I’m in USA now I’m proud of you
But, there is no war in indonesia
just to clarify to all the viewer ... starting this year 2019 .. everybody can go to school (included asylum seekers and and refugees) ...so it solved one of the issue that been raised in the video .. but of couurse there are still many issue that still not been solved ... .. let pray for a better malaysia
Not true.
Where do you get this information from?
Which schools do they go to?
Do they study in the same schools as Malaysian children or do they at the least obtain standard certificates which they can later use in life, either in or outside of Malaysia to further their study or work?
They go to places only called "school" built by donations from normal people and NGO's to at least make sure they can read and write and that's about it, at the end of their study they don't get anything that will help them in any way, and what they learn is not up to standard at all.
Malaysian government and UNHCR has done nothing for these children so far.
yes n no bro, if we let their kids go to school than they will said how to cos they have no money to send their kids so they will ask y don we let them open a small business there, small at first than .... or ask something else, one solution if we send teacher to the refugees camp if the goverment agree cos the debt left before by bossku is still on n will never end, i guess la, as p,ramlee said 'hidup susah mati pon susah' lol,
the situation in the KLIA detention center is (for those who want to know) 1) if you have slippers, yes, you can wear in the cell. if not, then your expensive shoes will be lost. 2) cannot bring anything except a broken (or cut, i don't know how to put it correctly) toothbrush, toothpaste. 3) have to automatically shave all your hair the next day. everyone who are arrested have to shave. no matter whether you commit crime or not, as long as you are in the center (another word: camp) you cannot have any hair. 4) any muslim must worship at least three times a day (other wise the security will come and beat that person) i am not saying bad thing about islam. i am saying about those security guards who are doing this. i have alot of friends who are muslims and they are also my very good friends..i am saying nothing bad about any religion. but what happened there is real. I saw with my own eyes. but the security guards do not come always so some people who are lazy to pray play while the cat is away, some people who are sick are allowed to rest..they don't need to kneel to pray which is good.. what else...5) no one can come and meet you, you cannot call or try to contact any person within 14 days, which means anything can happen without any of your friends or relatives knowing where you are and how you are..
its the same in thailand,i pray for the best of that school and other schools in the rest in the world
Apabila rakyat Malaysia khususnya Muslim tidak bersatu,bermacam masalah boleh berlaku...memanglah masalah bila2 dan kt mn2 pon boleh berlaku,tapi jika kita bersatu semua masalah boleh selesai...ini xhabis najib la ,1mdb,banglo LGE la mcm2...pastu ade plak orang yg condemn...nak tgok negara maju,senang je BERSATU...macam Rasulullah SAW buat...jadikan la contoh ikutan
Ameer Nazmy Noordin bersatu yg macamana tu? awak ni pelajar yg baru habis kolej ke cara awak komen. banyak sikit membaca. islam lemah sebab tinggalkan solat jemaah. malaysia lemah sebab pemimpinnya korup dan lebih menyedihkan mereka muslim. pemimpin mcm ni menyebabkan nama islam tercemar. tak de kena mengena dgn bersatu.
Shuhairi Huaweiti Alhamdulillah,ade gak org komen...btol la ape yg awak ckp tu...saya sokong...
Ameer Nazmy Noordin kima lah tuh malaysia macam binantang orang dibuatnya apalagi polisnya g punya hati...
One thing i know about malaysia ( as foreign worker ) some of malaysian and indian boss never pay salary take passport and than kicked out to workers :( how they can buy visa and get passport ?? malaysian Gov have to make rule for workers also when boss never pay salary what they have to do ? ( i am sorry for my broken english )
Stop RacisM and Subscribe Me it's ez man. Stop coming here. We don't need you!
Really ? you dont need foreigners ?? ask to your gov why they have other immigration office ? why they allowing Visa's ? ask to your woman why they are seeking money and cheating with foreigners ? ask to your gov why visa fees is so high now ? ask to your gov why so many thief's in malaysia ? if you have enough workers why malaysian jail full of criminals ? if you are enough why you malaysian cant broke stone cant you work on construction sites ? there is so many things my kid you dont know yet if you have time meet with me in real life :) what you did with foreigners and what we doing for your country :) there is so many hidin things my Son :) your gov didnt share with you if you are malaysian ask to your gov why they didn't ban foreigners ?
Well, it's not that simple. I hired foreign workers before. Some of them just run away after their first pay and leave me with all the expensive fees I still have to pay the agency. Sorry la. Better it sucks for you guys than sucks for me. No hard feelings.
dont work for shady boss, work for big companies with good Human Resource
Stop RacisM and Subscribe Me yes a lot of bos be like at Malaysia
Salute u man you provide education really very good job.
Let Malaysia wash her hands now. This documentary itself revealed that Malaysia does this on voluntary basis, out of her own pocket, out of her kindness to the humanity. When our funds are drying up, can u blame us for not being so generous to the foreigners anymore? We shouldve turn blind eyes like Australia did. Now, not only we are condemned and shamed for something we did as a favour, but those people that we helped also shows no gratitude or humility that they are being helped even though we have no obligation to do so. Malaysia is like that kind nerd kid who got taken advantage of and bossed around by those popular and muscular students (UNHCR and western countries).
Why cant the rich European countries who give themselves the top jobs in the UN and the highest paying ones finance all this? Why should Malaysia foot the bill?
These 'refugees' pay people smugglers tens of thousands of dollars, so why did they not take more cash with them?
Those "tens of thousand dollars" might be their only "tens of thousand dollars" they have.
oh god, it's sad, i dont have any words to describe what happened in malaysia now over the refugee treats...
Are they being treated better in their countries?
I'm so grateful at my land of hornbill now..I can't imagine what they have going thru and migrated to flooded KL
yeah....they tru a lot....but still illegal is illegal. maybe hornbill land can help them better than KL.
There have over 180 countries in this world but why you all choose Malaysia?!! What the joke.
the earth have their law why God that created it put his own law but Earth changed it because the devil is using them why must you have a paper before you enter another part of Earth that god created and beside Malaysia has no pity they should help them instead of putting them in jail please have mercy people and let face the truth
+Thisbis Very Nice I Live It Princess “why must you have a paper to enter another part of Earth”
If you enter my house without my permission, I kick you out of it.
+Rc. Dingstyle Dont you read my comments? Clearly I said im from Malaysia.
Why not? It'll show the world how corrupt Malaysia is. Illegal migrants enter our country easily, police abuse their powers and beat them (migrants) up etc.
Adham Jong JI WON
Because Malaysia is free visas for more than 150 country that regulation also giving problem to Indonesia because they using Malaysia to enter SEA before entering Australia via Indonesia,,,
Indonesia also lot of refugees all of them using Malaysia Gate before reaching Indonesia to crossing the Indian Ocean "south of Java" to Australia
seriously..u expect detainee center a resort or something? these were paid by malaysian tax money. it is the same in every country.
its not same not even close in most countries accept in those like malaysia
the amount of hate comments here just shows how uncivilised our society and country is.
@John McGuinness stfu

YOU ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE REFUGEES WHY NOT BRING THEM TO YOUR HOME!0😡😬😬😬🙄🙄🙄🙄
Why not give aplace in your home
Been to malaysia 3 years ago. Its nice place to stay.hope to visit soon.
thank you so much ,AI Jazeera for your hard work and time for this media ,,,it is been many years ago that nobody can make visible all this thing, how all the refugee people are going through this hardship ,
It's their choices.. Malaysia govt never ask them to came here first place .. why should complain
I feel bad for these people on a human level, but the out-of-control population growth is spilling over into countries that have been responsible about their own population growth and it's not fair. Stop having so many kids!!!! If you can't feed yourself, why are you breeding? Birth control IS a thing. It makes me so mad.
Malaysia should be strict and tighten the law on illegal immigrants coming in or just send illegal immigrants back to their country.Since Malaysia has no ability to keep the refuges or make them residents , why should the government waste their time by trying to do so .I know I am not the government or so what but this type of stuff needs to be taken seriously. And I know there is a better way to solving all this problem.
Government is being too kind, feeding others yet own people suffered. With our hospital and universities fund being slashed now, wont UNHCR take note that we simply dont have the means to house anymore refugees? We do this as a favour, but when we are running out of budgets to do it, they (western countries) condemn and shame us instead of supplying us with what is needed. So much fun being the kind nerd in the class full of big jock bullies huh..
Julanie Koh ...I agree, these are immigrants not refugees, They should be send back home to where they came from.
Malaysian goverment is doing the right thing. Its should be a worldwide example
+furbygr right thing which is??
TheArchAngel123
kick out illegal immigrants
correct! Kick out those illegal or no documents.
Do you want a wall with that cuz i know a guy...
enkryptron electrical fence would be better
Hey Stevo, come to Malaysia now, you go Jalan Alor and see who working there and who own the business there, you go berjaya times square and ask who own the business there, go to bukit bintang, go masjid jamek, go chow kit. you will hardly see malaysian hang out in these area now a days because we malaysian are scared and whenever we go these places, we feel like we in a foreign country. Come la
Help Malaysian, we are being overwhelmed and inundated by these economic refugees. We used to have no beggars cornering us at traffic lights. Now we have 'em preying on hapless us. Now all these folks are turning KL into another Dhaka or Mogadishu. No wonder Italians and the rest of Europes are against them!
Lair.
Macam mana orang Al-jazeera boleh di beri masuk ke Pusat Tahanan Imigeresen.
the only thing i can honestly suggest just help the poor , who comes to your custody .
Even in their media insult n make fun of immigrants n as a Malaysian myself i want this culture of discrimination to end so that regardless of anybody's nationality, all humans are to be treated as equal but with the current political landscape in Malaysia it is almost impossible for anything to happen to help these people.
but malaysia goverment run by religion law
sawadikin im sorry but please do not confuse Islam with malay culture. Islam is not a religion of one a singular race but all human being n this missconception is a dangerous one in my opinion. This is not a legitimate arguement. its not about religion, its more towards race using religion to justify descrimination.
do you realize every human being do their act based what their believe? like religion or superstition,
malaysian goverment is not secular state, but religion based, deity .
even secular state like turkey have huge influence by religion dominate there, or america never secular because people who run goverment have believe in religion.
i think secular state never exist, so your opinion is not right.
sawadikin yes i do admit religion plays apart in this but ur missing my whole point. The driving force behind is racial agenda not religious. Its says nowhere in the quran about other races above others so to say its purely religious is absurd. Its politically motivated n to put blame on just religion is in my opinion is just plain stupid. As a Malaysian myself its because the long history of invaders into our country which makes it difficult to accept others. Others being viewed as invaders is a driving force in the political landscape in Malaysia n its a very old one n needs to change. My point is that, Islam or any other religion is not to blame but rather the people who interpret it for their own politcal agenda which is equally wrong in conservative or secular ideology of islam or any other religion
sawadikin btw i myself dont believe there will ever be a truly secular state in which any nation can govern, especially when the majority of humans on earth r themselves religious in some way or another. Frankly the ideal state is almost impossible to exist which all people can truly live in harmony. That is the cold hard truth sawadikin, its just is that way since nations were built from the beginning of civilisation until now. There will always be conflict of interest among people maybe political, religious, racial n many more.
i hope we can be friends even with our difference of opinion because i do love having these kind of debate to further my understanding n other's.
Allegations of detained people being abused are not unheard of even in Singapore. Inhumane conduct must not be tolerated and must be publicly addressed. The allegations against the Malaysian authorities are serious and must me publicly investigated without any cover ups.
they're not humans...so inhumane conducts are expected
They never told why they ran from their home...
The way i see it, only the UNHCR is wrong
Huh? Why? Because they send them here? No man. Malaysia has to accept a certain number of refugees per year as a condition to join the UN. It was a choice Malaysia made. If tak mau, just quit UN lor.
Malaysia the only country joining UN ah.. Did we happened to be among the richest, too? Is that why UNHCR keeps on shoving them here like a bunch of sardines in can rather than placing them where it is more economically and geographically logical?
it's just the way i see it. the unhcr maybe can find a way to solves this problem. but who am I to talk about this. im no politician anyway. nak buat bijak pun kita tak pandai kan? tapi saya suarakan pendapat untuk video yg diupload ni je. kalau satu organisasi yang bermasalah, takkan nak salahkan satu malaysia ni kan? malaysia ni negara yang prihatin dengan nasib pelarian yela macam negara lain juga, cuma masih mentah dalam urusan macam ni. rakyatnya pun kurang cerdik berbanding rakyat negara maju. tapi berakit ke hulu berenang ketepian. lama2 pandai diorang uruskan hal ni.
How can Malaysia do that! so cruel!
Exaggerated reports.. just as yourself y they still keep coming to Malaysia from many countries available around
They are recognizing Filipinos are refugees in Sabah, a land belong to the Sultunate of Sulu, a Filipino as well. Very inhuman to them,
Wah very emotional. Why not go to Palestine, Middle East or country that have Muslim minority that been abused by Majority from other faith such as Pattani,Mindanao,Vietnam n Cambodia.
Western media are very good in condemning Muslim country but the actual facts that thousands of Muslim been kill n bomb by Western or Christian country.
WHY NOT ALJAZEERA GO TO ISREAL AND SEE HOW THE REFUGERS FROF AFRICA TREATED THERE.
Thank god you did not use the Imperial system when describing distances.
Nice video... Good info
Where the HOME MINISTER!!! Huge disgrace.... Face the public, face the world media
Please kkpo0 uxnsnwjsnsjkdsidhe4ŕvŕi3837i
i understand the action of malaysian Gov,,event inside UNHCR there are alot of discrimination.they are that one who sell UNHCR cards to someone who can paid but think about the refugees they have to face serious problems about this case.
These are human beings, If you must detain them, do so with more humility! Such despicable system.
There are many other countries, why do all refugees like Malaysia???
as a malaysian, i just want to say that without foreign workers, there will be many job left undone. all we need to do is that we have to limit the number of ILLEGAL foreign workers.
so sad pls provide atlest good water and food.
Are they being treated better in their homeland?
I am LiLi I am a Malaysian People and also my dad.🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
Reading all the comments below, I realise that many people in Malaysia are racists.
Many claim that they deserve this deserve that because their ancestors migrated here first, and they don't work to get what they want. Why not work harder instead of blaming others?
TudouQYoutub Agree with you, they keep blaming others if they fail to get a job or whatsoever, but the problem is, they themselves do not have good attitude to do their jobs, much of them are lazybones..
TudouQYoutub i know your comment is old but I can't help myself for expressing my own opinion..These immigrants come here and ransacked some parts of rural areas in Malaysia villages,small towns etc..making crimes and act like Malaysia is their country and don't want to leave.Yes i know i sounded racist and yes some of them come here for good intentions like supporting their family but majority of them is robbers and beggars.I have friend who is immigrant by law(Indonesian) he said that his family works really hard in order to have better life here so why not all of them work hard so they can go back to their country and have a good life.
Yes its true..
Yeah actually Malaysian sakary higher then foreign
TudouQYoutub agree worst than any other country
Running to Malaysia is a big mistake. Don't do it. Grass is not greener there you know! There are better countries. God bless these poor souls.
So much hate from these comments on the negative case and effects. So little on humanity and inadequacy on authorities.
too many loopholes of information given . Heavily one sided arguments
This may look inhumane,but ppl must view this as part of our survival action as a country. Malaysia is located near to problematic nations. Once we provide asylum to some of them,the others will come flocking in and create problems for our own citizens.
+Nazirule Ideham Inilah mentaliti yang menghalang negara kita daripada menjadi negara maju. If you actually integrate them well enough, what problems will there be? Moreover, if we are complaining about "jiran yang bermasalah", then play a proactive role in pressuring for resolve. Nonetheless, your mind must be pretty sick to think that being inhumane is part of our survival action. Just what are we being threatened by?
+Suah Jing Lian I can't see how by allowing them to come in, we will become 'negara maju'. You got a problem! I think by allowing them, it'd cost us to be a 'negara maju'
+Nazirule Ideham that's a very uncivilized mentality
***** I'm a Malaysian and I am disgraced. I don't blame u.
miohazi .miohazi no people are not just like that as u put it, u're just an idiot. Non-bumis and bumis are all the same, some are idiots i.e. you, whilst many others are contributing to the country.
Why u all come here...If u cannot except our law pls go somewhere ealse
Samsul Bahari every country should have the which respects each and every person no matter from where that person belongs
Samsul Bahari they should have a proper law
They are human beings. Why are Malaysians so racist
my concern is this- M'sia PM recently said that ' The world cannot just sit by and watch genocide taking place' . Fact of the matter is also this . There are already more than 56K Rohingyas registered with the UN refugee agency in M'sia. But why are they treated like this rubbish when there get there? A better hellhole is not a solution. More can be done.
ilhan simply because no matter how the bad the refugees are treated here, it's still better than in their own country. The PM just emphasized to make all this genocide stop, so less refugees will come to our country. That's what I think when he said that.
STEVE CHAO ,, YOU ARE GOOD MAN, GOD BLESS YOU , I SEE ALMOST ALL YOUR PROGRAMME, ,every country must help all these
Refugee,, all this rich country must understand the problem of this illegal immigrants ,, nobody leave his/her home by his choice,,
Biased reporting by Steven one sided .LOL.Ask the local how ththey feel😬😬😠😠😡
This is just pure horror...
This is shameful to treat humans this way, the authorities in Malaysia can help but are not compelled to and that is the problem, it will be a never ending problem as far as the Malaysian Authorities are concerned, as there are regional issues within surrounding countries. To politicise this issue will condem these people, perhaps working with both UNHCR and the Malaysian Authorities and not politicising this can be of benefit. Is there going to be a follow on program? I can see a dilemma separating mother and child, there are no clear solutions, and the lawyers are politicising the issue, this will exacerbate tensions between the UNHCR and the Malaysian Authorities. Good documentary but a sad one. There are no winners only loosers in many of these instances.
Im malaysian and listening to such problem 4 te first time....is tis really happening...?
heartbreaking
This is sick
It seems that Malaysia is pulling an old stunt! They need to be held accountable! If they were not allowed elsewhere, Malaysians, would be more considerate of refugees!
Suppressing their right and dignities are violating their human right already.
People keep blaming refugees or foreign workers. Yet, they don't blame *LOCAL MALAYSIAN* employers for hiring them. Foreign workers are *cheaper* and *easier* to get than locals. People come to Malaysia because there's a *HUGE DEMAND* for labours or cleaners or even maids.
If Malaysian employers don't hire foreign workers, then most people will not come to Malaysia. Simple as that. Considering how corrupted Malaysia is now, I don't think this problem will be solved anytime soon.
I feel very disappointed and angry at how *SOME* RELA or police treat those humans. This is what happen when people abuse their authority and power.
i have lived in Malaysia for 4 years as a student,it is the most corrupted
place i have ever seen in my life!!!
Wow they said that their are mostly Nigerians and etc but I didn't see any Nigerians in this video, thanks for including us, but it's ok cuz you probably didn't find any of us there!!!😒😊
@Kes Mangkuk Thx, man Nigeria isn't a perfect nation but also isn't the worst, lots of us immigrant to America or Europe. But, we rarely more to Asia to immigrant, if we do we make little business to make a living. Which comes with lots of paperwork. Asia wouldn't be the first in mind if we want to immigrant. We would risk our life to more to the west and not the east. 😉
@Kes Mangkuk Ah, thx your a kind, open minded person, all countries have their ups and downs, but we still live and countiue living, stay safe as well, THANK U SO MUCH 🤗👍
Heart broken , I know some of these people are not refugee just economic seekers but no need to treat people this kind of condition. Don't have to shackle and handcuff them together like dogs and cat or hardcore criminals like murderers or rapists.
+camae62 if they follow their contract they will not be exploit....the problem is they do not follow the system...and cause a serious social issue....and also what Malaysia authorities do by handcuff is the normal standard procedure.....if you go to the Australia they have drown because Australia gonna put a holes in their boats
I saw a man netting fishes at a sanitary pond near my house.
Malsyaian also inligel at Australia i see the report
I see my eye because Australia Australia 1days salary is dollar but states inligel
thank you for shining a light on this hidden human sufferings of the refugees in a so called civilized malaysia.
its true story 80%. But it's old...not new one....
I am born malaysian....Can i hire 1 or 2 of them ? Reliving them of their refugee status to become a willing Legal Immigrant worker ? Its expensve to pay their taxes its around 17k to make their documents but i would feed them 3 times a day and monthly allowance of RM1300, RM200 above the local lowest pay ? as long as they work for me ?
if USA is tough on immigration like this we wouldn't have problem
BRUTALITY and injustice exist in Malaysia... very SAD and very TRUE!!
I know what happens in langkap detention centre. My gf was there. It's inhuman
wow... OKT punya cerita.. wow... wow.... wow....!!!! rasa nak letak jawatan je
i am malaysian n love my country very very much n also don like this but if u live here u know the real situation wat is really going on, a lot of them r really cunning/ minepulative/ persuasive n the one that really suffer is the one that really need help, this is really hard to say, they r not at fault n so r the goverment , 20 years ago this is not a problem but as we start helping them they becoming more demanding, for not letting the kids to see their mum or dad is really....., we really need to know who r them before, we simply cannot freely issue them un card, it is taking long cos their own country won give any corporation, this is only one problem, i don wan to see my beloved country ruin as they never respect us nor our culture, wat about the one that still out there n making a lot of trouble, influence some shallow minded persuaded local to make havoc, a lot is at stake here, they all have their own gang spreading their idealogi such as komunis virus n always challenge us as u know we malaysian r peacefull people, always lying, taking advantage even u all outsider don like them especially those from china n myanmar, a lot of mis info here, let see wether they like it here or thailand n see first hand how they treat refugees there, if u don like this, how do u think we as local, should be glad at least we accept them or do u like us to just shooh them away as a lot of other country r such as urs doing it , as i said before a lot is at stake, a lot, y don u go to other place before reporting news or u r also another virus trying to plant seed of hatred causing havoc among ourself, no country in the world is perfect n also i like to know wether ur country is perfect or not, than it is just easier said n done, correct.
Why don't this immigrants go to Austrailia or Singapore???
Even Raj those countries have really tight security borders the way of living is just unbelievably high.Malaysia is a country that have first world countries infrastructures but 2nd world countries economy(but our economy is increasing rapidly so that is good) these concepts is perfect for the illegal immigrants to enjoy
luxurious stuffs without paying too much
u r right
I think the Malaysian government should learn what is all about human right. They are lacking how to implement the word human right.
The population of Malaysia is about 31 million. Legal migrant workers number about 2 million, and illegal workers are about 4 million. Then, there are the refugees. This video highlights only the problems. If word gets out that Malaysia is a horrible place for foreigners, then perhaps fewer would come to the country, which could be positive. Sure, refugees should be better treated, but what would happen to Malaysia when even more illegals, even from as far away as Africa and Latin America come to find opportunities there? However, think about it: With foreigners making up about 20 percent of the people, how bad do you think have Malaysians been treating outsiders?
They treat foreign worker as a slave,they don't pay them( worker) properly.but they do the same thing without any obstacles.the international community should be protested against their brutality.
Then your country just take them all
Minister definitely is corrupt...
Kalau benar PATI2 ini benar2 di aniaya olh Kerajaan Malaysia bagaimana mereka semua boleh hidup di Malaysia dn berbondong bondong masuk ke Malaysia. Al Jazeera patut melobi negara2 dunia supaya mengambil Pati2 itu. Malaysia sudah cukup terbeban dgn Pati2 ini. Apakah Al Jazeera mahu mrk dilayan spt raja..? Kenapa Al Jazeera tdk pergi ke mynmar dn menyalahkan kerajaan mynmar itu sendiri.
WHY IS IT EASY TO GET INTO MALAYSIA?
+wang tie because the guards are lazy and sleeping on the job?
+wang tie geographically, malaysia has many places to get in to and too few people (police) guarding it. Unless you want Malaysia to put large walls around its borders. The same story why many mexicans can go to the US illegally.
They claim to be refugee, but they enter a country illegally to seek job. Kuala Lumpur and other cities are wonderful places to live. However, the so called refugee, illegal immigrant, homeless destitute and high crime have damaged the vibrant cities.
well done Mr. Steve Chow, thank you for showing this, its really heartache and painfull and i am so sorry for them , what more to those detainees , but,its not over yet,you should also give a solution for this, or maybe try to find some other refugees that had been staying here many years now, having a good life, what do they say about malaysia. every country have their own laws, tell me if the detainee camp or lockups in africa, middle east, south america, europe, america or even from where you come from is doing perfect and having good time with the detainees...# i think they are happy inside there.#
Rela is not a para military in Malaysia , that is absolutely a wrong fact
tk kna sebat pn dh ckop baik
I think Aljazeera has to let this person risk to give such report. Using drones to shoot videos from above, which i think is illegal to have in Malaysia, pretending as a priest to go visit to detention centres ( i don't think they will allow you to have such a spy cam. if you are caught with the spy cam, the RELA or any one in authority can beat you, I think. and if you die, may be there is almost no possibility these authorities themselves will admit it is their fault, because I once was in so-called the best detention center: KLIA deportation center because I just woke up and did not wash my face but went down stairs to buy a bottle of water. But then there were people without uniforms or badges or any other sign. They said nothing but suddenly asked me for IC ( the ID card). Then I said, i just woke up and so I would go upstairs and bring my document back. But they would not allow to go back and they asked me another question. Then I said, I do not know who they are, I asked them to identify themselves. But none of them replied me with respect. They just said they have authority to arrest anyone without proper documents. I said I respect Malaysian laws, I followed Malaysia laws, I do not do anything against the Malaysian laws so I also repect them. But you need to show me your police badges if you are police, I said. But they did not respond, instead, they said, since you cannot provide us with proper document you are arrested bc of immigration law. and I had no chance to inform any of my friends anything by phone, I was handcuffed and taken to their police office. Then only I know they are police. Before i was taken to the police station, I tried to run away, because they may also be robbers or any one committing crimes, trying to ask for money. but they just grap me and beat me from behind. It was not very hard and painful, but what i do not understand is they should have shown me their police badges, right?
I spent 8 days in KLIA detention center. I lost my belongings which I gave to the officers there. my belongings were supposed to be given back to me.
hahahaa. ok since 5 years ago mereka ckp pasal illegal immigration.. then please Al Jazeera, also do documentary in other country about illegal immigration too. and Malaysia tolong la sedar diri kalau x mampu nak tanggung semua refugee ni, jangan baik hati.. nanti yg terpaksa tanggung semua pelaksanaan polisi polis dan imigresen.. dan nama Malaysia jiga tercalar xde sistem.imigresen yang berperikemanusian.. ukur baju badan sendiri klau nk tolong org pun..
that's disgustingly sad. I think a one world order needs to rule with authority. to make accountable the countries that neglect their people, to weed out the greedy corrupt people, and them that oppress others with violence and wickedness, so all peoples can live in one accord. Easier said than done!
guys..why we just don't think the way to make them having a better life...u don't believe with Allah promises..we help people..Allah will help us...if we give them the opportunity here...Insyaallah..Allah will grant and bless more our country..why should be worried about the lost job and stuff
It's their own fault...Should've stayed on the Farm...
No control and very corrupted.
Thumbs up to steve chau for posing as a pastor to get access
father steve chao... the priest outfit looks good on you. very nice.

Show they get there in the first place by plane yeah criminal
What refugess? Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Phillipines. None of this country is in war. If they come from Palestine or Syria we understand.
