Border officials have caught 226 job seekers from Myanmar at two locations in Prachuap Khiri Khan.

 

At 2am on Saturday morning, local residents alerted officials at the Khao Din border checkpoint in Ao Noi after spotting a large group of people crossing the border.

 

In total, 145 Myanmar nationals, 96 women and 49 men were arrested.

 

The group told officers they had traveled from Mudong Village close to the Singkhon border pass. They said they had paid agents 20,000 baht per head on the promise they would be given work in Samut Sakhon, Ratchaburi and Bangkok.

And they blame the Falangs visiting for the boost in Omicron. They need to start looking at their land borders and returning immigrant workers.
