- comments:
- Fully agree with this recommendation assuming these will be priority countries in a future TRIANGLE phase.
Labour migration is a priority for all stakeholders in both Malaysia and Viet Nam. Malaysia is the second largest destination country in the region, hosting more than two million migrant workers primarily from South Asia, but also from the ASEAN region. Viet Nam is a country of origin, that largely sends migrant workers outside of the ASEAN region.
Having sufficient staffing is of vital importance in order to run an effective programme leading to sustainable impact. Currently, TRIANGLE has a reduced work-plan in these two countries, focussing on high-impact law review processes, and direct service provision through MRCs. However, to have more comprehensive action on the ground, TRIANGLE would indeed need national staff, either on a full- time, or shared, basis.

- title:
- Identify if there are funding opportunities that would allow the joint funding of NPC positions in Malaysia and Viet Nam.
Funding limitations led to the removal of NPC positions in Malaysia and Viet Nam. The programme has benefited from utilising the Ship to Shore NPC, and funded her position for three months. While full funding for the position within the programme on its own is ideal, if this cannot be obtained, looking at a more sustained shared funding model for the position could help close the human resources gap and is one the programme could consider if funding opportunities exist.
