webfact Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 South Korea to assist Thailand on returning illegal labourers By THE NATION Narumon Pinyosinwat Foreign Minister Don Pramudwinai has received an assurance from his South Korean counterpart Kang Kyung-wha that the two sides will collaborate on three measures pertaining to the return of illegal Thai labourers, government spokeswoman Narumon Pinyosinwat said today (March 6). “The measures include a 14-day quarantine period for the labourers before they return to Thailand and stricter screening at the airports for those who travel to Thailand,” she said. Don also asked Kang to provide information on Thai workers registered with the Korean Immigrant Bureau. “The last measure is for the convenience of workers returning to their hometown,” Narumon said. “The Korean government has assured us that it will take good care of Thais in South Korea, and will send them for medical treatment in case of any sickness,” she added. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has called on relevant agencies to prepare to receive the workers returning from South Korea.

Popular Post ukrules Posted March 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2020 Makes sense to quarantine them in Korea, we already know they don't follow the rules as they're living and working illegally while on overstay. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGW Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Something being hidden here - surprise, surprise! Out of the Blue! SK knows the whereabouts of all the illegal Thai workers, rather than throw them out or into jail they are more worried about their "convenience" ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

car720 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 South Korea doesn't want them and neither does Thailand so just put them all in a boat and park them off San Francisco. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altho' Thailand has been quite happy to accept the money they repatriate home to their families and South Korea has been equally happy to use them as cheap labour. Let them come home without fuss..process them as they return professionally and speedily and allow them to self quarantine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockyv7 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 As i understand it most of these workers are farm workers, what now happens to these farms and the produce that these people were picking or looking after. You can stop a car production line and restart it in a week or a month but farms with crops growing that a different thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais 100,000’s of them located abroad who are overstaying their visa while illegally working seems to be regarded business as usual !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chang_paarp Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 It is so convenient that all these illegal immigrants want to leave all of a sudden. The virus is doing what the Korean government has failed to do over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
