"Malaysia Announces Plans to Expel More Than a Million Illegal Workers"

From the VOA:

The Malaysian government says it is planning a massive expulsion of the estimated 1.2 million illegal foreign workers in the country.

The country's home minister say about 400,000 volunteer corps members will detain and deport the illegal workers. Officials say they are still working on the logistics of transporting and housing so many deportees...

And, from "Government to weed out illegals first":

[Home Affairs Minister Datuk Azmi Khalid] said new laws on the recruitment of foreign workers were also being drafted and there would be amendments to certain legislations to curb the inflow of foreign workers and illegal immigrants.

He warned employers to expel their illegal workers or face hefty penalties.

It's unfortunate that they're going to have a national ID card, but that doesn't mean the U.S. couldn't expel our illegal aliens if we wanted to. If we started cracking down on the employers, untold thousands of illegal aliens would self-deport.

Comments

It is also a crime to harbor illegal aliens in residences. If a fine of sufficient size were payable per illegal, and a percentage of this were payable to the official who found the illegals, and another percentage to his informant, how many illegal aliens would be left in the country after a year or so?
