Crime Police Arrest 23 Illegal Chinese Workers Masquerading as Tourists in Pattaya & Rayong
Pictures courtesy of ที่นี่ พัทยา Tourist Police have arrested 23 Chinese nationals working illegally, under the guise of tourists, following a crackdown on illegal foreign labour by the Royal Thai Police. The workers, who were found on construction sites in Rayong and Pattaya, were earning between 20,000 and 40,000 baht per month without valid work permits. The operation, launched under the directive of Police General Kittirat Phanphet, Commissioner-General of the Royal Thai Police, is part of an intensified effort to rid the country of foreign nationals violating labour and immigration laws. The raids were led by the Tourist Police Bureau under the supervision of Lieutenant General Saksira Phueka-am, with senior support from Major General Phongsayam Meekhantong, Major General Krit Warit, and Major General M.L. Santhikorn Worawan. Rayong Construction Site Raid – 11 Arrests In the first operation, Tourist Police investigators received a tip-off about illegal foreign workers at a construction site in Map Yang Phon subdistrict, Pluak Daeng district, Rayong province. The site, operated by a company whose name was withheld, was reportedly employing several undocumented workers. Upon inspection, police discovered 11 Chinese nationals engaged in construction work. All had entered Thailand on tourist visas and were earning around 25,000 baht per month. They were promptly arrested and charged under the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 for engaging in employment without permission and under the Foreign Workers Management Royal Decree B.E. 2560 (2017), which prohibits foreign nationals from working without a permit. Pattaya South Site – 12 Detained The second case involved a coordinated raid on a construction project located near South Pattaya Soi 1. Following an investigation, officers obtained a search warrant from Pattaya Provincial Court (Warrant No. 124/2568, dated 17 June 2025). On 18 June, Tourist Police executed the warrant and searched the premises, uncovering 12 Chinese nationals working illegally. These individuals also entered Thailand as tourists and were found to be earning between 20,000 and 40,000 baht monthly, depending on their roles at the site. They were similarly charged with working without authorisation and for violating immigration law. All suspects were informed of their legal rights and charges in accordance with due process and reportedly confessed to the offences during the arrest proceedings. They have since been handed over to Pattaya City Police Station for further legal action. Ongoing Crackdown on Illegal Foreign Labour Tourist Police have reiterated their commitment to continued enforcement against illegal foreign workers operating under false pretences. The public is urged to report any suspicious activities via the 24-hour Tourist Police hotline at 1155. This operation reflects an increasingly firm stance by authorities against the misuse of tourist visas for employment purposes, particularly within the construction sector. Authorities stress that legal employment in Thailand requires strict compliance with immigration and labour laws, including valid work permits issued by the Ministry of Labour.

Crime Authorities Raid Illegal Gambling Den in Nonthaburi, Arrest 54 Suspects
Picture courtesy of Matichon. In a crackdown on illegal gambling, a combined force of local administrators and police officers raided a clandestine Dragon-Tigergambling den in Bang Yai district on the afternoon of 18 June, arresting 54 individuals and seizing substantial evidence. The operation was led by Mr. Kiattisak Tongsiri, Governor of Nonthaburi, along with Pol. Maj. Gen. Kittithanet Thanananthaweesin, Chief of Nonthaburi Provincial Police and senior officers from Bang Yai Police Station. The team also included district officials and members of the Bang Yai Volunteer Defence Corps. At approximately 15.00 the authorities stormed a large, air-conditioned warehouse, approximately one rai in size, located in Soi Kaeo-In, Moo 5, in the Saothonghin subdistrict. The site was surrounded by a corrugated iron fence over three metres high to conceal the operation. Officers scaled the perimeter and entered the building, where they discovered dozens of gamblers engaged in a game of Dragon-Tiger, a fast-paced card game popular in illegal circles. Startled by the raid, many attempted to flee but were quickly apprehended, as all exit points had been secured. A total of 54 suspects were arrested, comprising 15 Thai men, 31 Thai women, and 8 foreign workers, both male and female. Seized at the scene were gambling paraphernalia and 218,340 baht in cash. The governor stated that the raid followed intelligence received around 14.00, regarding ongoing illegal gambling in the area. Following verification, he ordered immediate action. “This raid is in line with the province’s policy to suppress gambling operations, which often lead to economic damage, social problems and debt among citizens,” Mr. Kiattisak explained. Authorities are now reviewing CCTV footage to determine how long the operation had been running and to verify the exact nature and extent of the gambling activities. Initial reports indicate the presence of at least two gambling tables dedicated to Dragon-Tiger. This is not the first such incident in Bang Yai. Officials confirmed that similar operations had been discovered in the area previously, though this particular venue had not yet been linked to a specific duration of operation due to conflicting accounts from those arrested. Mr. Kiattisak warned, “Let this be a clear message to anyone considering opening gambling dens in Nonthaburi. We have informants across every district and will take firm action, especially against organisers and operators.” Pol. Maj. Gen. Kittithanet echoed the sentiment, stating that this was the second raid on an illegal gambling venue in Bang Yai within a single week. He praised the collaboration between police and local administrators, reiterating that such activities defy national police directives and Ministry of Interior policy. He added that if any financial links to the operation’s organisers are discovered, the authorities are prepared to pursue charges under the Anti-Money Laundering Act. “All involved parties will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” he concluded.
