A motorcycle convoy comprising members of the National Union of Workers in Hospital Support and Allied Services (Nuhwas) and organised by Parti Sosialis Malaysia, arrived at the Health Ministry building yesterday. The convoy, which began its journey in Penang, met with Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin to deliver a memorandum about the plight of contract cleaners at government hospitals.

But what exactly is the problem here? And what are the demands made by Nuhwas & PSM?
