They are blaming a Filipino employee of WU..
I'm sure there are plenty of paper trails, even the Bangladesh workers weren't given a receipt..
I wonder what Brunei will do.. both countries are vital to our economy..

Please enlighten me - Why do foreign workers send money through small remittance companies rather than through the large banks?

Why isnt Remittance@Seconds not liable to reimburse the Bangladeshi workers? Since it is their employee who cheated them, an employee they installed, should they be liable to compensate the Bangladeshi workers and seek legal proceedings against the employee that ran? Their should be Insurances or Security Deposit with the Brunei Government which should be used to re-imburse the individuals who have been cheated? That's only fair
Unless, these remittances are owned by a royal or pehin or dato who the government doesnt want to chase? Curious
