IS AN EMPLOYMENT AGENCY LICENSED BY THE MINISTRY OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND VAST EXPOSURE TO GLOBAL MARKETS
Landbon began its human resources business in 2000, initially focusing on the supply of foreign domestic helpers in Malaysia. By 2002, the company expanded into larger-scale manpower recruitment and became one of the main suppliers of Myanmar workers to Malaysian enterprises across various industries, including manufacturing, restaurants, construction, and agriculture. We also provided Myanmar manpower to other licensed recruitment agencies in Malaysia, which laid the foundation for our growth into international labour and human resource services.Following the amendment of the Private Employment Agencies Act 2017 (Akta APS 2017), Landbon successfully obtained the new Class “C” licence issued by the Ministry of Human Resources in 2018.
This licence authorizes us to conduct a comprehensive range of activities, including:
- Recruitment of expatriates
- Deployment of Malaysians for overseas employment
- Recruitment of domestic workers
- Supply of migrant workers from Myanmar, Bangladesh, Nepal, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Cambodia
Today, we actively supply trained and screened domestic workers from Indonesia and the Philippines, while exploring expansion opportunities into Cambodia and Nepal.
In addition to recruitment, we also provide advisory services in corporate human resource planning and training solutions, supporting clients in building effective and compliant workforce strategies.
As a responsible corporate citizen, we are committed to creating proper, transparent, and legally compliant channels for individuals seeking employment in Malaysia. Our role is to ensure a safe and regulated process for both employers and employees in the cross-border movement of manpower. In doing so, we help reduce the risks of exploitation and protect vulnerable individuals who are compelled to seek better livelihoods due to political or economic challenges in their home countries.
