A woman from Bintulu had been searching for a job to help her family. She had been overjoyed when she supposedly managed to land a high-paying job in Kuala Lumpur. However, it wasn’t what was promised.

The woman’s “high-paying job” turned out to be an indentured servitude in Myanmar. Thankfully, she managed to think her way out and with the help of authorities, made it back to Malaysia safely.

Bintulu MP Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing (张庆信) shared her story yesterday (20th April) on his Facebook. The woman had apparently found a “high-paying job” in Kuala Lumpur on the internet. However, it was a fraud. The group she had contacted had actually arranged for her to work in Myanmar.

Thanks to a mistake, the plane she boarded was set for Laos. They stayed in Laos for several months, but planned to move her to Myanmar by illegally entering Thailand. However, once she landed in Thailand, the lady managed to save herself by going to the police. Datuk Seri Tiong had then been contacted by her family for help, and he flew to Thailand to coordinate matters with the authorities.

The lady successfully came home to Malaysia yesterday evening and will be returning to Bintulu soon. Datuk Seri Tiong was especially grateful for the Malaysian and Thai authorities for their cooperation. “Regarding the woman’s personal safety, the whole incident was satisfactorily resolved,” he reported.

Datuk Seri Tiong advised the public to be careful when job hunting. “Even if you are looking for a (lucrative) job overseas, go through the usual channels. Do a thorough survey of the hiring company’s background,” he stated.

Malaysian Man Shares How He Lost Nearly RM6K To Property Scam

This lady is one of the few lucky ones who has been rescued. However, there are many more trapped elsewhere with no hope in sight. Some suspect this is what may have happened to still missing Hyeon Chia.
