Foreign-employment frauds not acceptable: PM Dahal

Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ today said foreign-employment frauds and a delay under any pretexts would not be acceptable whatsoever.

Inaugurating the social security scheme coverage of Nepalis at foreign jobs and self-employment in foreign lands amid a function here, the Prime Minister said now, “Troubling migrant workers is now gone. Now, all will get an honour. Their self-esteem will be increased. Your (Nepali migrant workers) contribution will be taken into account.”

Urging the line ministry to seek new opportunities and destinations for job opportunities for Nepali people, he said the remaining labour agreement between Nepal and labour receiving countries would be made by implementing the past agreements effectively.

Issues like the welfare of Nepali people in foreign countries, taking initiatives to increase their facilities, and the quality benefits from this are the government’s priority, he said.
