Kuwait Pro Co(Cymn) (77ZB) - KIPCO signs MoU with ORIX Corporation RNS Number : 1964P Kuwait Projects Co. (Cayman) 22 October 2012 Immediate Release KIPCO signs MoU with ORIX Corporation Kuwait City, 21^st October, 2012: KIPCO - the Kuwait Projects Company - has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the ORIX Corporation - an integrated financial services group in Japan. The two companies intend to establish a strategic alliance for the development of leasing and financial services in the MENA region. The MoU between KIPCO and ORIX also includes an intention to carry out a feasibility study to explore the formation of a leasing company in Algeria. This feasibility study will commence in the next three months. Representatives from both companies signed the MoU at an official ceremony in Kuwait last night. They said the synergies between KIPCO and ORIX will allow them to combine their expertise and experience in an expansion of their operations within the MENA region. Speaking at the event, KIPCO's Vice Chairman, Mr Faisal Al Ayyar, said: "ORIX is one of the world's biggest financial services companies and we are very pleased they have agreed to explore business opportunities with KIPCO. Their expertise, combined with our knowledge of the MENA region, will allow us to assess the potential of the leasing model in some of our key markets. Our intention to study the viability of a leasing company in Algeria is based upon our positive experiences there. Algeria has a business-friendly environment and huge potential for this type of business. I am delighted to welcome Mr Miyauchi and his team to Kuwait and sign this MoU between our two companies." ORIX Corporation's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr Yoshihiko Miyauchi said: "I am very happy to visit Kuwait and to have entered into a partnership with KIPCO. KIPCO and ORIX share the same business philosophy and objectives and we have today laid the foundation for a long and mutually beneficial relationship. For ORIX, the MENA region is an important market and we hope to expand strongly here in collaboration with KIPCO. Throughout the world, leasing has played an important role in establishing industrial infrastructure and job creationthrough the development of small and medium-sized businesses. However, in the MENA region the penetration of the leasing concept is still low. We believe through our venture with KIPCO, we will not only establish successfulbusinesses, but will also contribute to the economies of the countries we will operate in."

A centrifuge is a laboratory device that is used for the separation of fluids, gas or liquid, based on density. Separation is achieved by spinning a vessel containing material at high speed; the centrifugal force pushes heavier materials to the outside of the vessel. This apparatus is found in most laboratories from academic to clinical to research and used to purify cells, subcellular organelles, viruses, proteins, and nucleic
acids There are multiple types of centrifuge, which can be classified by intended use or by rotor design. From the large floor variety to the micro-centrifuge, there are many varieties available for the researcher.

2012 Luxilon Playtest
View Single Post
Join Date: Nov 2011
Posts: 306
Full set or hybrid
: Hybrid w/ Solinco Vanquish crosses
Tension used for playtest
: 50/52
Regular string set up
: Solinco Revolution/Vanquish
Racquet brand and model used for test
: Dunlop Biomimetic Max200G
Power of test string
: This string felt considerably lower powered than the Revolution I use. The pro of this was that you could take big cuts at the ball and keep it in. However, I found it took more to get the ball deeper in the court than usual. Serving also had much less pop on it but was easy to place and move around consistently. I really missed the free points that come with the extra power of the Revolution in my typical setup. Overall 6/10 on power.
: This was a nice solid feeling string during play. Felt especially good when you are in the sweet spot and I didn't find it to be very jarring on off center shots. When volleying, I had good directional control and feel, some of which is probably due to the fact that I played it in a hybrid with a multi in the crosses. Groundstrokes also felt easy to move the ball around the court when needed. I liked the feel on backhand slices and it kept the ball consistently low. Overall 8/10
: Nothing out of the ordinary here. Played like most other smooth polys. I typically play with geometric polys like Revolution or Tour Bite which definitely generate more spin. the string was effective on my backhand slice at keeping it low. There was a big dropoff in spin production on my groundstrokes, drop shots and kick serves. Serving was tough as I felt I could no longer get my second serve to kick up and come out of my opponent's strike zones a bit more. Overall 6/10
: During play, I found this to be a pretty comfortable string. However this week I have noticed more soreness in my shoulder and elbow than usual. I think some of this is a by-product of compensating for the lack of power by swinging harder. After I finished each hitting session, I definitely felt more fatigue in my shoulder and arm. Overall 6/10
: Durability seems pretty solid. I have about 7 hours on the strings and they show little wear. Since they are somewhat smooth, they definitely aren't chewing through my multifilament crosses like a shaped poly does. Comparatively, they seem to be in line with the other polys I have played recently. Overall 7/10
Tension maintenance
: 7 hours in, the strings are just now starting to move around in the string bed. Nothing major and they are easily snapped back into place. These were strung at 50 to start with and I haven't noticed a loss of tension large enough to impact performance yet. Overall 7/10
: String produced easily controllable shots. The lack of power created a bit of an issue for me with consistently keeping the ball deep into the court. Many groundstrokes were landing around mid-court where as typically I am able to keep the ball closer to the baseline. Volleying offered good control as did slices when I wanted to keep the ball low. Overall 7/10
Compare to the string you use most often
: The lack of power and spin was immediately noticeable compared to the Solinco Revolution I typically have in the mains. I missed the pop on my serve and groundstrokes as well as the ability to play the ball into the back of the court. The Luxilon perhaps had a bit more of a "solid" feel to it but I would sacrifice that to gain the spin and power back. Comfort was also an issue as I found myself more sore and fatigued than usual after hitting with the 4G. Overall, this was an average playing poly that didn't do anything well enough to justify a switch, especially considering it will most assuredly carry a Luxilon price when it comes to market.
Tension recommendations
: I thought my test tension of 50lbs was fine. I personally would not string it any higher than 50-52 as it was already making me sore. If anything, I would consider dropping it down to 49 or 48 since it seems to have decent enough tension maintenance not to immediately become a rocket launcher at lower tensions.
Likes: Color looks good in Max200G, very solid feel on contact, easy directional control and touch.
Dislikes: Very low power, lacks spin production of shaped poly, created more fatigue.
Overall this was a 6.5 or 7 out of 10 for me. It fit in with lots of other smooth polys that I have played with but was one of the most low powered I can remember playing recently. Luxilon 4G played as an average, all around poly. It does many things decently but nothing superbly. For me, this lack of standout performance characteristics (especially power and spin), coupled with the premium price point I'm sure it has would keep me from considering switching to it. Still, thanks to TW and Luxilon for the opportunity and for the t-shirt!

What could be an installer problem
I'm not sure if the blame should go on the installer or with Debian. I love the NVIDIA drivers, and the fact that they are generally very easy to install. Unfortunately, it took me a good hour to get them to work with Debian Sarge. I installed sarge, XFree86, etc. Then, I downloaded the kernel headers, source, etc. Then, I ran the installer, it gave me the standered RivaFB warning, and installed the module reporting a success. I then modified XF86Config-4, launched the server, and the NVidia logo appears for a second or two, and then I get dumped back to the console with a segfault (Signal 11). Most people say that it is broken hardware, but I kept searching. Finally I came across the following:
I did what the post said, and it worked. This seems a very strange and little documented problem. yet it occurs with every single Sarge install I perform. I'm wondering, why does this problem occur (is it NVidia, or Debian), and in either case, will it be fixed in the next version of the installer (it shouldn't be that hard for it to compare file sizes and automate those commands)so I don't need to repeat that proceadure the next time I install sarge? Thanks in advance

Miner killed in ComVal landslide
More News from Frinston Lim
More News from Inquirer Mindanao
TAGUM CITY, Davao del Norte – A miner was killed and three others were hurt in a landslide at a mining area in Compostela Valley on Thursday, police reported Friday.
Senior Superintendent Camilo Cascolan, Compostela Valley police chief, said the landslide took place in Barangay (village) Ngan in the municipality of Compostela.
He identified the dead miner as Jerry Manzanares, 42, of Poblacion, Compostela.
Cascolan said Manzanares' body was pulled out of the debris by rescuers. Three other miners, whose identities were not immediately available, were also rescued and taken to a hospital for treatment, he added.
Julius Conejos, an employee of the local government, said days of incessant rains may have caused portion of a hill there to collapse, burying the victims.
Sitio (sub-village) Bango is a known gold-rich community in Compostela Valley where thousands of people have flocked since gold was first discovered there in the 1980s.
In 2011, over 40 people died after a section of a gold-rich mountain in nearby Pantukan town collapsed, burying a community of small-scale miners.
The Mines and Geosciences Bureau has included Barangay Ngan among areas with "very high susceptibility to landslides."

Dungeon of the Endless Latest News
Amplitude's Endless universe is free to play on Steam this weekend
Endless Legend was one of the most beautiful games released last year, and a damned fine 4X game in its own right. I didn't quite get on with it as well as other reviewers seemed to (I found the interface a bit clunky and the combat occasionally frustrating), but I still had a lot of fun getting to know its various unique races – it has some of the best faction design I've ever seen.
If you've yet to dive into developer Amplitude's beautifully designed fantasy world, this weekend's as good a time as any to do so – Endless Legend and its rogue-like dungeon–crawler spin-off Dungeon of the Endless are both free to play on Steam this weekend.
Steam Autumn Sale surges Amplitude's Endless series over 1.2 million
Indie developer Amplitude Studios has seen their Endless series of games rocket past 1.2 million sales, as it enjoyed the top spot during Steam's Autumn Sale. Endless Legend led Black Friday sales.
The French studio was founded over two-and-a-half years ago. The co-operative Dungeon of the Endless performed as well, which is the only non-4X title in the Endless series.
Final version of Dungeon of the Endless coming to Steam October 27
Amplitude Studios will release the latest entry in its Endless universe this month, with rogue-like dungeon defense game Dungeon of the Endless coming to Steam on October 27.
The game's been on Early Access since December 2013, but the complete version adds several new features including more difficulty levels, score tracking and co-op multiplayer.
Dungeon of the Endless to receive four player co-op in the future
Rogue-like tower defence game Dungeon of the Endless will eventually receive four-player co-op, according to developers Amplitude Studios.
In an interview with Joystiq the team confirmed their multiplayer plans, originally revealed in a developer blog post.
4X fantasy Endless Legend coming to Steam Early Access in Q2 2014
Amplitude Studios, creator of Endless Space, is bringing their new 4X strategy to the Early Access program through Steam in Q2 2014. It's a fantasy-based 4X set on a single world recovering from a cataclysm.
It features the The Vaulters, the "most sci-fi like faction" of Legend, and also part of the wider Endless universe. Amplitude will be introducing factions in a series of reveals.

What is the Mbps speed on the new 2TB Time Capsule? Is it 150 Mbps, 300Mbps, or 450Mbps?
- Asked by Jonathan W from Las Vegas
QA Apple Time Capsule
Product No Longer Available
2 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
This generation Time Capsule supports 450Mbps for supported devices, such as the current generation Macbook Pro (with Thunderbolt) and iMac (with Thunderbolt).
- Answered by Tyson E from Pleasant View
It does 450, but only if your card does that as well. So the link is limited by the wifi card in your device. Plus too, real world results will never give you those numbers. With that being said though its always better to start out with more than less.

From the Publisher:
Follows Cathy through twenty years of blind dates, friends' children, career frustration, diets, chocolate, a marriage proposal, bathing suits, and fashion trends."For years, Guisewite has presented a sampling of the absurd and achingly familiar rituals women face in presenting themselves to the world. In the process, she has become a dead-on chronicler of fashion in all its folly." --The Dallas Morning News
Lovable Cathy has been sister, confidante, and best friend to countless fans around the world. She's an Everywoman who experiences frustrations on the job, in her love life, and with her aging parents in much the same way as her real-life counterparts. Yet Cathy always handles everything with aplomb, consistently seeing the funny side of every situation. She's been an inspiration--giving readers infinite reasons to laugh at life's strange realities.
In this celebration of Cathy's 20 years, creator Guisewite shares some of her earliest strips and recollections of Cathy's growth. An advertising copywriter when she first drew the frazzled Cathy in 1976, Guisewite also reflects on how her own life shaped her character and the strip's other personalities--from boyfriends to pets to parents. From fashion challenges to business travel, Guisewite has covered the gamut of life through her indomitable alter-ego, Cathy, and the trip's been pleasurable for everyone.
In Cathy's 20th Anniversary Collection, readers also accompany Cathy on more adventures: Cathy as she listens patiently to her boss rant about how to buy a new car, replying, "Where"s this energy when we want a man to go in a mall?" Cathy as she turns her mother to mush by asking for quality time. Cathy, frustrated from years of trying to find the right man, as she buys a computer just for the on-line romance chat rooms.
Faithful fans who've grown up with Cathy will treasure this 20th anniversary book from Cathy Guisewite.

Do, Dump or Marry? Bradley Cooper
Like us on Facebook
I saw The Hangover this weekend, and yes, although half of it is in really bad taste — I laughed so hard I almost spit my nacho cheese-covered chips out across the theater. It's such a good ensemble cast that everyone contributes to the insane humor.
Besides Heather Graham, Bradley Cooper was definitely the film's eye candy. (Sorry, Zack Galifianakis!) So which is it — do, dump or marry?

Well he did divorce the actress Jennifer Esposito from Samantha Who...I didn't know who he was then. The split was either amicable or he was a jerk. I don't know...but I do think that this "do, dump, or marry" feature has never been cute or funny, at least not to me.

Do. Or marry. He's so hot. I realized when I lost interest in Alias in season 3 after he left that I was only watching it for him. Why do so many people think he's a jerk in real life, though? I've only ever heard that he's a nice guy.

HOUSTON It may sound like science fiction, but identity theft experts warn thieves could be using your cell phone to steal your credit and debit card numbers. Worse, they warn, you may never know it happened.
Walt Augustinowicz, president of Identity Stronghold, warns that cards equipped with contactless pay technology could be at risk. Augustinowicz demonstrated the cards vulnerability recently during a visit to Bush Intercontinental Airport.
Observers watched as Augustinowicz was repeatedly able to read people s credit cards through their wallets using a scanner easily found online, and hidden in an unassuming case.
But Augustinowicz remains convinced.
When they say no documented case, they mean they re not able to catch anybody, because it s too difficult to catch, he said.
While Rojas disagrees, he admits to carrying a protective sleeve in his wallet to protect his passport card which contains RFID technology.
It s just like wearing a belt, Rojas conceded. Most of us don t need to, but it s not a bad idea.
Along with protective sleeves and wallets, you can also wrap your credit and debit cards in foil. That will keep your cards from being scanned by thieves.
Experts also say it s important to make sure you trust the source of any application you download to your smart phone.
Nobody thinks they are vulnerable, said S.J. Malkani of Houston after Augustinowicz scanned a credit card still in Malkani s wallet. It always happens to somebody else, right?
Wrong, according to Augustinowicz.
His company sells protective sleeves and wallets that block credit and debit cards containing the radio frequency identification (RFID) technology from being scanned.
Off a credit card you can get the full 16-digit account number, the expiration date, sometimes their name, explained Augustinowicz. He said it s everything a crook needs to rip you off.
Oh my gosh, how crazy is that? asked Kori Hallmark, of Cypress, after Augustinowicz read her daughter s credit card number.
Critics argue a potential victim would probably notice a thief scanning their wallets from only a few inches away. But Augustinowicz says picking your pocket is easier than ever since bad guys can now hide right inside your cell phone.
You could really be in a cornfield in Iowa and get ripped off by someone in South Africa, said Augustinowicz. He says vulnerable phones use near field communications or NFC. The technology allows people to make payments using their phones. But Augustinowicz demonstrated what can happen if a victim s phone gets infected with a virus.
When I put this card next to it here, it will actually scan that, Augustinowicz showed the I-Team. In his case, the virus was hidden in a tic-tac-toe game he downloaded onto the phone as an application. The scanned credit card information was then sent to an e-mail account Augustinowicz set up.
You could put your phone in your purse, it could scan your credit cards and five minutes later they could be buying something, he said.
Or could they?
There are limitations to how easily that can be done, said Ernesto Rojas, President of Forensic and Security Services and a computer crime expert. Rojas says while electronic pick pocketing may look easy, it s not practical for crooks.
There are hackers in many countries around the world whose whole day is figuring out the next hack, explained Rojas. If they figured out how to hack an NFC reader for collecting credit cards, it would have been implemented quickly.
But in a statement, the Smart Card Alliance an industry group pushing contactless payments, says it s only seen attacks like the ones done by Augustinowicz in demonstrations and not in actual fraud.

Inspiration to take another step!
09.03.2015 Newsletter
Dear Friends!
Few days ago I watched a video about some Canadians who moved to a self-sufficient island. Can you imagine yourself living in such place? What is it that you could give up and what is it that you could not live without? On this Canadian (!) island many people use outdoor showers all year round. At the same time they do not have to live without the Internet, also the electricity question is solved with solar energy-even in this cold country. That may make us wonder what is it that we have to give up for more sustainable world, and what can be solved by modern technology? What do you think about this?

Air strikes on 'terrorist hideouts' kill 15 in north-west Pakistan
Published on Jun 10, 2014 1:42 PM
PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AFP) - At least 15 people were killed as Pakistan carried out early morning air strikes Tuesday on a militant-infested tribal district, the military said, a day after a brazen Taleban assault on Karachi airport.
A military statement said "nine terrorist hideouts were destroyed" in the raids, which came after the Taleban stormed Pakistan's biggest airport killing at least 30 people in an all-night battle on Monday.
The death toll from Tuesday's strikes, in the restive Tirah Valley area of Khyber tribal district, could not be independently verified.
Pressure has built on the military to act after the attack by at least 10 militants in Karachi, which left a nascent peace process in tatters and raised questions about how they were able to penetrate the airport in Pakistan's economic hub.

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
This is our country home, which we occasionally rent to special guests... perhaps you're one!
For this reason, please note that Roaring Brook is NOT available for weekend or 3-4 night rentals. It is only available for MINIMUM stays of one week or more.
Since we've had bad experiences in the past, we no longer accept small children or teen-agers. But pets are fine, and will have a wonderful time off-leash, since the entrance is a long way away from the house.
Roaring Brook has one bedroom with a queen bed, one with a double and one with two single beds. Living room upstairs; finished basement downstairs. Central air conditioning, WiFi, central heating with underfloor heat in the living room and a wood-burning fireplace insert. (We've already split the wood for you.) Of course there's a TV - a large flatscreen with a zillion channels plus lots of DVDs. And a stereo and boom box radio. And of course there's a washing machine and dryer in the basement. And a security system.
The house has extremely large windows (unusual for Vermont), that bring the surrounding forest and gardens in. There's also a mature hidden perennial garden. You can't see your neighbors (where are they?). We've left you our mountain bikes, cross-country skis and snowshoes.
We are Canadian documentary film-makers and TV producers .We bought this place about 20 years ago to get away from our life in Montreal, and come down every weekend (except when you're here!).
Karen Coshof purchased this cottage in 1990
If you want action, and have to be right by Mt. Mansfield, Roaring Brook is not for you. If you - like us - want to be part of the natural world, walk the woods, hike and bike, this is heaven.
The house had this name when we bought it - and you'll understand why when Kenfield Brook roars through the Gorge just down the hill.
Our 55 acres are managed through conservation forestry as a wildlife habitat; we've got deer, a large family of wild turkeys, fox, various small varmints, and a once-a-year moose who wanders through. Not to mention all kinds of birds.
What's great about the place is that although it feels almost isolated, it's less than 5 minutes to a gourmet country store with superb wines, outstanding meat and lots of local goodies. And you're about 7 minutes (really) from Morrisville's two big supermarkets, a hospital, stores, gas stations - whatever you need.
Or drive 10 minutes down the road and you're in Stowe, surrounded by the best restaurants in the northeast, with skiing on Mt. Mansfield and all the craft and gift shops you could want.
It's the perfect location. Roaring Brook isn't just a nice house on a few acres (as so many Vermont rentals are); it's in its own completely private 55 acre world, with a remarkable listed gorge and mature forest surrounding it.
Excellent walking/hiking, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing on the property's private trail network. Excellent more challenging hiking and mountain climbing on nearby state trails. Excellent mountain biking (property trails maintained by local bike club). Perfect location for road biking. A mile to a year-round ice skating rink, plus golf, horseback riding, tennis, sleigh rides and dog sledding. Many restaurants of all types in Stowe and Morrisville. Miniature golf, shops, etc. in Stowe.

Please God let someone normal find me. Oh, and a sports fan would be a plus. Amen :)
Fun, outgoing girl who is looking for Mr. Right. Not an easy thing to do in this crazy world! I never thought I'd be 32 and single and on a dating website but...here I am! I love to work and when I'm not working I love to play. Very easy going and go with the flow and looking for the same in a man. I want someone that I can get lost with while driving (which I do often) that doesn't get uptight or upset, but takes the opportunity to just spend more time together laughing, talking and making fun of how bad my sense of direction is! I want to find my opposite yet my mirror image. Frankly, I'm not sure what the hell I'm exactly looking for but I'll know it when I see it. And feel it. :-)

Self-employment programme aims at providing livelihood support for women in the camp
KRISHNAGIRI: A self-employment training programme for women was inaugurated at Kelevarapalli Dam refugee camp on Thursday.
Inaugurating the camp, Collector V.K. Shanmugam said that the programme was part of Government's efforts to provide livelihood support to those living in the refugee camps.
During Food Minister E. V. Velu's visit to the camps last month, women had demanded self-employment training to improve their standard of living.
The Government sanctioned Rs. 4.20-lakh for the training in response to a proposal sent by the district administration.
The training would be given to 60 women from Kelevarapalli Dam camp, 55 from Pampar camp and 30 from Pochampalli camp. Training on tailoring, fashion designing, manufacturing of rexin and cotton bags and embroidery would be given for 45 days.
Trainees would be given Rs. 25 a day as stipend. Trainees would be given certificates after finishing the course.
Project Officer Saraswathi Ganesan, Mahalir Thittam, P. Rathinavel, Revenue Divisional Officer, R. Muniraj, Tahsildhar among others attended.

Judge rejects Schwarzenegger minimum wage request
During Friday's hearing, administration attorney Chris Thomas argued the interests of taxpayers aren't being represented because the controller has refused to comply with the wage law.
"We think an injunction is critical," Thomas told the judge. "This is our only recourse for preventing what we believe will be an inevitable violation of the law."
Marlette said the harm that would be done to state workers by cutting wages outweighs the conduct of the controller.
"That's pretty dramatic, don't you think?" the judge said.
Chiang, a Democrat who has received $190,000 in union campaign contributions this year, also warned that paying the minimum wage would violate the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. That could lead to costly fines for the state.
In a second ruling Friday, the judge denied a request by several unions to join the lawsuit on Chiang's side. They included the Service Employees International Union Local 1000 and the California Correctional Peace Officers Association.
A possible pay cut would not apply to employees covered by unions that recently reached tentative labor agreements with the Schwarzenegger administration.
State doctors and lawyers would not receive any paycheck because minimum wage laws do not apply to those professions.

"Distributed routing schemes for ad hoc networks using d-SPR sets"
Dhar, Subhankar
Rieck, Michael Q.
Pai, Sukesh
Kim, Eun Jik
MetadataShow full item record
SubjectAd hoc wireless networks; Dominating set; Routing algorithm; Set covering problem; Shortest path routing
In this paper, we propose several new distributed algorithms for producing sets of nodes that can be used to form backbones of an ad hoc wireless network. Our focus is on producing small sets that are d-hop connected and d-dominating and have a desirable 'd-shortest path property' which we call d-SPR sets. These algorithms produce sets that are considerably smaller than those produced by an algorithm previously introduced by the authors. Our proposed algorithms, except the greedy ones, have constant time complexity in the restricted sense that the time required is unaffected by the size of the network, assuming however that the node degrees are bounded by a constant. The performance of the new algorithms are compared, and also compared with the authors' earlier algorithm, and with an adaptation of an algorithm of Wu and Li.
Michael Q. Rieck is Assistant Professor of Computer Science in the Department of Math and Computer Science at Drake University.

PETALING JAYA: A damning report by a Cambodian fact-finding team on the treatment of domestic workers from the country has put Malaysians urgently seeking domestic help in a deeper quandary.
A 12-page internal report, compiled following the team's two-day mission to Malaysia in December, stated that there was a "lack of legal protection" for workers who had been abused.
It also cited "insufficient commitment" from the Malaysian Government in resolving the issue following the ban imposed by Cambodia on sending its domestic workers to Malaysia.
The Phnom Penh Post reported that the team interviewed 13 Cambodians housed in rescue shelters and the victims included one who claimed to have been attacked with a pair of scissors.
Cambodia's Interior Ministry senior official Chou Bun Eng, who led the delegation also comprising officials from the Labour, Women's Affairs and Justice ministries, was quoted as recommending no lifting of the ban until proper protection remedies were put in place.
This prompted the Malaysian National Association of Employment Agencies (Pikap) to write to the Human Resources Ministry on Jan 21, appealing for remedial action.
Pikap president Datuk Raja Zulkepley Dahalan said he had urged the Government to introduce protection mechanisms to coax Cambodia to lift the ban imposed in October 2011.
He said resolving the dispute with Cambodia should be a priority as Malaysian employers would not have to be dependent on Indonesian domestic workers.
The Cambodian Embassy, during a meeting with the delegation, is said to have cited lack of staff and insufficient resources for not being able to effectively monitor maid abuse cases.
About 30,000 Cambodian maids had arrived in Malaysia before the ban which was imposed following reports of abuse by employers.
