During the months of December and January, four migrant workers at the plywood manufacturer Besgrade Products in Kedah state, Malaysia have died in what is probably a case of workplace poisoning. The reason that their deaths are unclear is that there has been no investigation of why they died. Not only that, but when workers tried to get the company to call for help to aid the fourth worker who was very sick, the company called the police and three workers were arrested. Activists are calling for a judicial investigation into the deaths and cover ups.
