A lady from Myanmar was arrested a couple monthis ago in our small town. She was pushing a cart around selling coconut ice cream. She said they told her she couldn't work for herself and fined her 25,000 baht. She now works at a small restaurant owned by some friends of ours. I think she is paying 5K/month to pay off the fine.
