Bangladesh: Airfare trouble for migrant workers

查看所有标签

Middle East-bound Bangladeshi workers are finding themselves in a tight spot as they have to pay more than double the airfare which is adding to the already high cost of migration. The rise in airfare stemmed from suspension of flights from Bangladesh by four airlines... This is creating uncertainty for many overseas jobseekers, [Shameem Ahmed Chowdhury Noman, secretary general of Bangladesh Association of International Recruiting Agencies] said... he has to send 15 workers to Saudi Arabia as soon as possible. Their employer yesterday asked him to send them by tomorrow. The employer has threatened to cancel their visas if they don't arrive there by that time... Several Middle East-bound workers spoke of their troubles to this correspondent. [Bangladeshi migrant] Abdulla bin Saleh... said he has Saudi visa, but the recruiting agent is saying that there is a shortage of air tickets.
