Invisible Pillars of Malaysia
1st EditionInvisible Pillars of Malaysia
Migration has become one of the defining realities of the contemporary world. Across continents, people move in search of work, safety, dignity, and opportunity. While migration is often discussed in terms of policy, labor markets, and economic statistics, the lived experiences of migrants reveal a far more complex story—one that involves identity, belonging, faith, resilience, and negotiation with new social environments. Malaysia offers a significant location for understanding these realities. Over the past several decades, the country has become a major destination for migrant workers from South and Southeast Asia. Workers from Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Nepal, and other countries contribute significantly to Malaysia’s construction sector, manufacturing industries, plantations, and service economy.
