PUTRAJAYA, Feb 26 — The Immigration Department (JIM) has ramped up enforcement at Ramadan bazaars nationwide to tackle illegal trading and unauthorised work by foreign nationals.
Immigration director-general Datuk Zakaria Shaaban said 61 foreigners were inspected at several bazaars in the Klang Valley, with 23 detained for suspected immigration offences. He noted that some stalls operated by locals were found employing foreign workers without valid permits.
JIM is also monitoring other areas frequented by foreign communities and will collaborate with the Road Transport Department (JPJ) to act against foreigners found driving without valid licences.
Zakaria spoke at the Semarak Ramadan programme in Putrajaya, where bubur lambuk was distributed to visitors and officers on duty. — Bernama
