webfact Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Repatriation of Thais in Thachilek discussed by Thai-Myanmar border committee Local officials, on the Thai-Myanmar border committee in Chiang Rai province and Myanmar’s Thachilek township, held their first meeting of the year today (Tuesday), to discuss the orderly repatriation of Thai nationals working in Myanmar, and human smuggling, in a bid to contain the spread of COVID-19 in Thailand. Leading the Thai representatives at the meeting, held in the middle of the Second Friendship Bridge, was Maj-Gen Narith Thavornwong, commander of the Pha Muang Task Force, while his Myanmar counterpart was the governor of Thachilek U Min Nai. Sources close to the Thai delegation said the Thachilek governor agreed to Maj-Gen Narith’s request to arrange for the orderly repatriation of Thais, but they must register first and pay fines for illegal entry, without facing imprisonment.

ezzra Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 To make sure, all returnees from over any land border with Thailand should be treated the same as if they come from overseas, no discount and no special 'poor people' consideration, 14 days quarantine to make sure...
