Johari Ghani notes that some Malaysian firms still pay TVET graduates the same as foreign workers despite a recent minimum wage increase, per Yahoo News Malaysia.

The wage disparity highlights ongoing challenges in labor market reforms, with officials urging enterprises to align compensation with local qualifications and experience.

Flight MAS716 is climbing out of Kuala Lumpur at 5,100 ft, heading southeast toward Singapore, as aviation traffic continues to operate normally.
