webfact Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 An Israeli woman was detained in Surat Thani on accusations of running an unauthorised nursery facility for foreign children on Koh Pha Ngan. Four other international individuals were also apprehended for unlawful employment and associated transgressions. Noppadol Khaomali, the Koh Pha Ngan district leader, guided local authorities, police, immigration officials, and representatives from pertinent agencies to a house inspection in the southern province’s tambon Koh Pha Ngan yesterday, March 14. The property was illicitly functioning as a nursery for foreign children. During the raid, five foreigners, three women and two men were apprehended, according to Noppadol Khaomali. The Israeli owner of the nursery, 56 year old Suli Shulamite Avraham was among those arrested. She was charged with being a foreign national running or establishing a nursery without permission, employing foreign nationals without work permits, and failing to report the employment of foreign workers to the local registrar. The two males, 50 year old Israeli national Alon Jacob and 38 year old British national Daniel Stewart were charged with being foreign nationals working without work permits. The other two women, a South African national, 42 year old Louise Cilliers and Myanmar national, 28 year old Hla Hla Win were charged with being foreign nationals with work permits failing to notify their employer, workplace location, and type of work to the local registrar. All detainees were handed over to the Koh Phangan police station investigators for legal proceedings. In the preceding week, police apprehended an American woman for allegedly running an unauthorised nursery on this tourist island, renowned for the popular Full Moon Party. Around 20 foreign children were discovered on the premises. Three foreign women working as babysitters and four Myanmar housekeepers were also arrested and charged with unlawful employment, reported Bangkok Post. On Tuesday, a Russian man was detained for unlawfully operating a vehicle rental business on Koh Pha Ngan. by Puntid Tantivangphaisal Photo courtesy of Bangkok Post Full story: The Thaiger 2024-03-16 - Discover how Cigna Insurance can protect you with a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment.

Workpermits are only given for people who do jobs Thais can't do here in Thailand and as Thai can do everything it is very difficult to get a work permit and have to wait at least 2 months.

So no one can enter the Schengen area to work without a Schengen visa, i.e. there are laws in that area that prohibit working in the area without permission. Most people can enter Thailand visa-free or VOA, Schengen area should get rid of that outdated visa requirement! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Monday Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 18 hours ago, webfact said: "foreign national running or establishing a nursery without permission, employing foreign nationals without work permits, and failing to report the employment of foreign workers to the local registrar." Over the past 25 plus years in Thailand it seems things have become more of a hassle for the average law-abiding foreign tourist, retiree, or resident. Maybe I am wrong? You can say she was just running a harm less nursery, but why Why can't foreigners on KPN take care of their own kids during the day? Too busy working illegally? I think these types of foreign criminals are partly to blame for most every hassle I now encounter in Thailand. . Stop mollycoddling and making excuses for the crims. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
