First migrant workers edit

My dad came with a bunch of other Bangladeshis (plus Burmese & Bhutanese?) to Malaysia in 1974 as part of a recruitment drive by the Malaysian Public Works Department. Most of the others went back after 3 years, but he hung around till now. I was born in Johor in 1985 and was raised there all my life. Does that make my dad's batch one of the first migrant workers? Bangladesh as a country only independently existed in 1972... Tiara (talk) 17:59, 15 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Naming of article edit

Not sure whether "Bangladeshis in Malaysia" is the best name for this article? Got a better idea? Please see the proposed guideline Wikipedia:Naming conventions (immigrant ethnic groups) and add your comments on the talk page. Thanks, cab (talk) 15:40, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
