KUALA LUMPUR: In 2016, almost 40,000 Malaysian employees were retrenched from their jobs, according to data reported to the Labour Department. It all went downhill after the workers began getting their salaries late from Sep­tember last year. “We would receive our salaries about one or two months late, and this went on until February this year. In May, the company informed the staff that they would be retrenched as new management would be taking over. There are many others out there like Goh, who are stuck in similar or worse situations after being retrenched from their jobs.
