Some of those who were caught told border patrol officers there are up to 1,000 more migrants waiting to cross the border illegally into Prachuap Khiri Khan.

 

The group apprehended on Wednesday consisted of 52 men and 34 women from Myanmar, all of whom were undocumented.

Chartchai Parasuk, an economist, predicted some months ago that the reopening of the country would result in an influx of illegal workers because demand for their services will be so great that employers will be ready to break the law, as they often are, and that these illegal immigrants will spark another round of infections.

As I've said before, it's a two-way street.

If employers were told, hire an illegal you go to jail.

It would stop it overnight.

It only works when the employers are actually sent to jail.  This talking about it doesn't work, especially in Thailand.
