I wonder does Thailand provide healthcare for the poor Burmese people who help to build this country?  Does these minimum wage people have access to the 30 baht scheme?

 

If theyc are here klegally (L-A visa, work permit) they can get covered under the scheme but have to pay about 2,000 baht a year for it.

 

Many do nto have visa and work permit, and thus are not eligible - and often afraid to go to the hospital for fear of coming ot the attention of the authorities.

Tragically, trash bins seem to be the place of choice for unwanted babies!

This is about as sad as the mom tossing her two year old son into a canal to drown.
