After at least 1,000 migrants missed their flights to Saudi Arabia failing to book or pay for their mandatory quarantine in hotels, Bangladesh yesterday decided to help KSA-bound migrants with hotel bookings and subsidy.
The migrants had been in trouble after the Gulf country, the largest manpower market for Bangladesh, earlier this month said people travelling to the kingdom from Bangladesh would have to be in seven-day mandatory quarantine in hotels at their own cost.
Many workers struggled to manage the additional Tk 60,000-Tk 70,000 needed for their hotel stay. Some unable to book hotels themselves for various reasons, sought the help from airlines, who a few days ago said the migrants would have to book hotels themselves.
