According to industry, trade and cooperatives cabinet secretary Adan Mohamed, the incentive aims at enabling export-oriented garment factories source labour with specialised skills.

The Indian expatriates will transfer the skills to local workers, Mohamed was quoted as saying by a local newspaper report.
