They need not to compete because locals do not want the job anyway. Locals working at Pasar Selayang, really?

Government sponsored? Malaysian government? Sponsor? Haha. No. It is the NGOs assist, of course not entirely. Maybe in terms of health and education. They work illegally anyway to survive.

Corruptions and weak border security (again as a result of corruptions). They paid a huge amount of money to get in anyway, to get the refugee status and eventually to the third country ie. US, Australia.

They cannot be sent back as it against the non refoulement principle, that refugees or asylum seekers cannot be deported back as they are vulnerable to be persecuted.

To let them work is very hard due to local sentiment when in reality, locals don't do odd jobs.

Right channel if your definition does not exist for Rohingyas. They don't even have passport to begin with. They are stateless unlike Palestinians and Syrians refugees in Malaysia, they have passport. They can work, they can be charged for their crimes they committed, they can open a bank account, they can become a student legally. You don't even know if they are refugees, some of them are professionals ie. engineers, lecturers in Malaysia.
