COVID Concerns from Thai Returnees

[webfact]

 

BANGKOK, April 21 (TNA) - The commander of the 4 th  Army Area has ordered subordinates to be ready to receive Thai returnees as Malaysia ordered illegal migrants to leave its soil within April 21.

 

After several times of leniency, Malaysia set April 21 as the final deadline for migrants who overstayed their visas to leave without any prosecution.

 

As a result, Thais were fully using the daily quota for 150 Thais to register for their return at the Thai embassy in Kuala Lumpur.

They are only counting "migrants who overstayed their visas" so the total number of illegals could be a lot more. Then again the Thais who never bothered to get a visa in the first place can just walk back over the border.
