TAWAU: For the past 10 years, a 57-year-old Indonesian has been making a living in Malaysia by building houses despite not having proper documents.
Sudirman Brahima said he entered Malaysia legally using his Indonesian passport and began working as a house builder, from which he was able to fund his children’s higher education.
When his passport expired, he became an illegal immigrant, and he never renewed it until he was arrested in 2020 while on his way to pray.
