Hong Kong’s labour chief on Tuesday met the Cambodian and Bangladeshi consuls general to discuss bringing in domestic helpers from their countries after he pledged to seek alternatives in response to increased recruitment fees for Indonesian workers.
Secretary for Labour and Welfare Chris Sun Yuk-han said he explained the government’s position on expanding the import of workers to Cambodian Consul General Puthisathbopeaneaky Pech and her Bangladeshi counterpart Israt Ara.
“I told the two consuls general that the Hong Kong government welcomes more of their nationals to take up foreign domestic helper jobs in the city,” said Sun in a post on his official Facebook page.
