webfact Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Samut Sakhon — On June 12th, 2024, Royal Thai Immigration officers and relevant agencies in Samut Sakhon conducted a search operation at a factory in Krathum Baen. This action followed a report from the Damrongdhama Center about a large number of illegal immigrant laborers at the site. During the operation, officers discovered over 72 illegal immigrants working at the factory. Among them, 45 had no legal documentation or work permits, while 27 Burmese workers had some documentation but lacked work permits. All the immigrants reportedly admitted to working illegally at the factory, where they were paid 363 baht daily in cash. They revealed that they had been employed there for one month.

Popular Post Tropicalevo Posted June 13 Popular Post Share Posted June 13 It is easy to say that arresting illegal workers is a good thing, but..... this is all down to the factory owners. These folk probably thought that they were working legally. Some will be the main breadwinner for their families. Lives shot to hell and back. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the factory will continue once it has employed more illegals and the owners will only face a fine.. Close the factory for good and jail the owners/shareholders.

Thailand is in the thick of people trafficking and hiring migrants working for a pittance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you not educate us/me then as I assume you have all the answers as you put yourself above. If not, you probably know what you can do with your comment. I give you a clue, it has something to do with a place where the sun don´t shine. Edited June 13 by Gottfrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
