Kota Kinabalu: Digital registration of foreign workers and undocumented stateless persons is now at the trial stage, said Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan.
He said the State Government is taking a comprehensive and holistic approach to enhancing Sabah's labour market and human capital.
This includes the digital registration exercise now at the trial stage conducted by SmartSabah and the Chief Minister's Department.
"While the main purpose of the initiative is to resolve the illegal immigrants, undocumented and stateless people issues, the digital registration opens an avenue for them with a digital identification to be employed in Sabah if the Government decides on such a policy," he said.
