The German parliament has passed a law to open up new opportunities for foreign job seekers - as well as for many refugees already in the country.

Under the law, foreigners who don't have a job lined up can come to Germany for a year to find employment.

Refugee rights are human rights.

What Malaysia needs is a robust plan that addresses the impacts on ALL vulnerable communities.

We cannot thrive as a country by closing a blind eye to those most in need and expect economic upturn.

WFR disagrees that public funds directed only towards Malaysians, and ignoring the plights of other vulnerabilities groups including refugees and asylum seekers is the best way to improve the economic effects of COVID-19.

Funds spent on refugees better used on rakyat, says MP #FMTNews https://t.co/yrnLcm8PZx

[Women For Refugees @WFRmalaysia]

In order to improve the effects of COVID-19, the Malaysian government should look at impacts on all communities and how it correlates to eachother.

✨@WFRmalaysia Stepback 2023✨

We’re going into our third year of operations and conducted our first ever ‘stepback’ session.

We took a moment to stop, reflect and chart down some new, exciting and ambitious goals together as a team today 👏🏼

[Davy Jones 🇲🇾🌱 @davtonnnnn]

Spent the day judging tech solutions by young student developers hosted by the Google Developers SC Malaysia and @WFRmalaysia was an official NGO partner - loved spending today talking to the participants about their creative tech solutions to SDG issues ✨

Here's to reimagining protection of vulnerable communities. Here's to the Malaysia spirit #HappyMalaysiaDay

This results in refugees being prone to exploitation and abuse. ⛓

Read on to see the legal status of refugees in Malaysia and how it impacts their livelihoods. 👉

[Women For Refugees @WFRmalaysia]

Social media often paints horrible pictures of refugees.

However, refugees do not live the same lives as many Malaysians because they are legally deprived of the same rights we have - the right to elementary education, a liveable wage and many more.

[Women For Refugees @WFRmalaysia]

Had a fruitful discussion at the @EUinMalaysia panel today on the role NGOs take in empowering and upskilling refugees and the importance of having a framework for refugee integration in Malaysia 🇲🇾

Here’s @anusharym engaging with other prominent activists from this space 💪🏼

[Nat-scape Nat-vigator 🇲🇾 🏳️‍⚧️ @Natcromancer]

Like fucking clockwork, the peddlers of hate have come out to justify hatred against refugees and xenomisia/phobia

Make no mistake, this is a gross policy failure by our government to provide dignity to those fleeing persecution and oppression

DBKL library wouldn’t allow 2 of my refugee kids in to read. They didn’t even want to borrow books just read on premise. Told they cannot enter. Fine! We’ll build our own library for all kids. So angry
