Adviser Nazrul made the remarks after inaugurating the Overseas Employment Platform at a city hotel on Wednesday.

Nazrul said Bangladesh has already conveyed its objections to several of the proposed conditions and will continue discussions with Malaysian authorities to secure a more favourable position for Bangladeshi workers.
