Putrajaya must explain how an obscure company linked to a former Umno minister was awarded the contract to handle the biometric registration of Malaysia-bound foreign workers, opposition party PKR said today.
BestiNet Sdn Bhd since last Thursday has been handling visa applications and health checks of migrant workers at source countries online, through the Foreign Workers Centralised Management System.
Checks with the Companies Commission of Malaysia ‎revealed that ‎the company registered in November 17, 2008, is a former RM2 company and counts former Home Minister Tan Sri Azmi Khalid as one of its directors.
Lee said outsourcing the registration of foreign workers to a third party should not have happened as it involved sensitive information which affects the country's security and sovereignty.
He added that Home Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi must explain how the project was awarded to BestiNet which does not have the track record in developing an online system.
‎"Is the contract awarded through an open tender and what is Azmi's role in this?
"What ‎is the value of the contract? Who will pay for Bestinet's services?" he said at a press conference today.
