My wife told me that last week she went to the soi along Kamthieng market where all the laborers are, looking for 2 guys to clear one of her properties that is overgrown with jungle. She said that everyone who had some tools (trimmer, etc.) wanted 600+ (each) for the job, and guys with only a machete wanted 500 for 1/2 a day. Nobody was willing to work for less. Being as tight with money as she is, she wasn't prepared to pay 1200 for the job. She has yet to get the job done. I occasionally get someone there to do work like that. I prefer just one person as its less hassle than dealing with two. you also have to watch and direct , so we say 400 baht for half day and can usually get someone ( choose a younger guy who doesn't look too weird haha) Also we supply tools as they rarely have any. If someone is good they can do a lot in half a day . Your wife can always get someone a second time if needed. NOTE: go early, like 7:30 1
