More than 160,000 migrant workers, including 52,428 from Cambodia, will be brought into Thailand without requiring quarantine courtesy of a newly signed memorandum of understanding (MoU) in a bid to stem illegal border crossers searching for employment, according to the Labour Ministry.

 

As of Wednesday, quarantine has been waived for migrant workers coming into the country via the MoU signed with Cambodia, Myanmar and Laos, provided they have been double-dosed with vaccines and test negative for Covid-19. In total, employers have applied to import 236,012 migrant workers from the three neighbouring countries. Of them, 165,376 are from Myanmar, 52,428 from Cambodia and 18,208 from Laos.

 

Labour Minister Suchart Chomklin said the coronavirus quarantine waiver for fully vaccinated migrant job seekers proceeded in tandem with the border reopening ordered by the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) headed by Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha.
