NewsTranscript
00:00 Human Rights Watch said Anwar Ibrahim's government had failed to reform immigration policies
00:09 related to the treatment of migrants and refugee communities.
00:13 The International Human Rights Watchdog said PKR, which Anwar leads, had promised to ratify
00:19 the United Nations' Refugee Convention, which would allow the country to recognize
00:24 refugees and their right to work.
00:27 However, the group said Anwar had fallen short of his commitments, maintaining a similar
00:32 stance on immigration enforcement as that of his predecessors.
00:37 This was despite Anwar criticizing the hardline approach taken by two previous nationalist
00:42 coalition governments on refugees during his time as opposition leader, the group said.
00:49 HRW added that anti-migrant rhetoric and widespread raids on immigrants had persisted under Anwar's
00:56 government.
00:57 The group also revealed a slew of abuses in immigration detention centers across the country,
01:03 with refugees and asylum seekers detailing instances of torture and abuse.
