Thailand Reminds Foreign Workers of 10 Restricted Jobs

Are you really this unaware of what occurs at a manufacturing facility?

What does a work permit have to do with this? All foreign workers are required to have work permits.

A Myanmar national obtains a work permit to work at ABC textile manufacturing. The exemption allows the worker to drive a forklift to move yarn spindles at the job. It does not allow the foreign worker to drive the employer's shuttle van that transports the foreign workers from the worksite to their dormitory. The forklift is directly related to the work on the looms. Driving the shuttle bus is not.

Why aren't tractors on the list of exceptions ?
