Young men from Nepal who had accepted a job with the Russian army were sent to the Ukrainian front as soldiers against their will. Signing up to simply earn some money abroad, they suddenly found themselves untrained in the middle of a war. Some have already been killed.  </p> <p><span>This was uncovered by Nepalese investigative journalist Rajneesh Bhandari.

"We use this freedom to expose bad business practices and exploitation."   </p> <h2><span>Highlighting grievances and successes </span> </h2> <p><span>Yet Bhandari is not alone in his work. </span>In Malaysia, Journalist Hui Kee works for the Chinese-language newspaper Sin Chew Daily and often reports on the working conditions of precarious workers from abroad. </p> <p><span>Many Nepalese migrant workers</span> also move to Malaysia, where they find employment in construction, as security guards or in factories.   </p> <p><span>"</span>It's difficult to research,” Hui Kee explained.
