Continue to put pressure! We had over 1k letters come in (that we were able to count).
1/ "KALAU KITA SENYAP, KITA TAK AKAN DAPAT HAK KITA."

2/ Satu pekerja yang kami bertemu telah berkerja selama 20 tahun sebagai pekerja pembersihan. Gaji dia hanya RM1200 sebulan. Manfaatnya semakin kurang setiap tahun – contohnya, manfaat kesihatan telah dikurangkan dari RM1,200 ke RM200.
3/ “Selepas potongan pencen dan keselamatan sosial pembersih hanya dapat membawa pulang lebih kurang RM1,000 (US$233) – di sebuah negara di mana anggaran gaji kehidupan wajarnya adalah sebanyak RM2,700 (US$633) sebulan untuk seorang.”

2/ One worker we spoke to had been a cleaner for over 20 years. Her salary was RM1200. Her benefits had actually reduced over the course of her career -- a health benefit from RM1,200 to RM200, for example.
"Dari mana kita boleh mintak hak kita?" she asked.

3/ "After pension and social security deductions, cleaners’ average take-home pay is usually closer to RM1,000 (US$233)—in a country where the estimated living wage is nearly three times that, or RM2,700 (US$633) a month for a single person."
