Migration is a global phenomenon. In Nepal, migration for foreign employment is turning into reality of many Nepali families. However, the violation and abuse of the rights of Nepali migrant workers has been a crucial issue and a number of labor destination countries are not the exceptions in this regard. Considering the vulnerability of migrant workers, NHRC- Nepal has embarked upon making a number of initiatives for the protection of the rights of Migrant workers overseas. In this concern, NHRC- Nepal formed a high- level delegation and carried out on-the-spot observation and monitoring of the de-facto situation of the rights of migrant workers in South Korea and Malaysia. During the visit, the NHRC-Nepal officials met with the NHRIs counterparts, government officials of South Korea and Malaysia, the Nepalese Embassy discussion on the perennial issues and problems related to rights of Nepalese migrant workers.
