That is illegal. DO NOT DO IT THIS WAY you will end up being deported and banned for 5 years from entering Malaysia.

IT IS A SCAM

Thank u for  ur reply...

Regarding my above enquiry my agent said the employer will pickup me from airport and provide me free accomadation in that 20 persons in single house.... Food no free... Single day salary 60 ringet 12 hours duty....designation is Packing labour.... Plus  overtime will be provided after 12 hours duty... 26 working days.... Once visiting visa expires after six month (he showed me the (Myreg)Malaysia  visit visa of someone showing 6 months  validity) my employer will deduct 3000 ringet from my salary for work permit visa applying process .....contract time is 3 years  ..and succeed upon contract for 3 years leave for 26 days with company provides free air ticket to return india.. Before 3 years  ie... In case I want come after two years of working ..company will not provide me air ticket I have to return india at my own expenses.....is it really  fake....  Or any possibility to work in Malaysia by this manner.....

It is illegal to work on a visit visa

They will not pay you properly and will never get you a work permit.

You can contact this member to hear what happened to him - mustaq7520

Do  a search on mustaq7520 in the forum and you can read about his troubles yourself.

If you do this, you will have to go through detention centre to get back to India.

Correct process:

1. You get a medical done in India at one of the centres that have agreement with Malaysian government

2. You get a single entry visa (VDR) issued by the Malaysian consulate in Mumbai, New Delhi or Chennai)
