Sorry to hear that. RIP. Hope there's somebody to inform his family.

RIP as well, but the question remains - did he have a work permit? A 22 year old Burmese man on a labouring job? NO? I thought not; what a surprise. Will there be any repercussions - No. Am I surprised? - No.

He was just cheap labour, Trying to make a living, R I P . He was probably on half the wage of a Thai because he was a Burmese.

The tragic thing is that even still he was making twice what he would in Buma if he could get work.

R.I.P - As usually is the case with many migrant workers (documented or not) - this "Use them when we need them and arrest and deport them when we don't need them" is kinda sad.

Beats the European way. "Use them when we need them, feed them and their families on social security when we don't need them".
