Maybe good news for those who work for a company and get paid a salary but not for the average Thai worker paid on a daily basis and do not get a holiday allowance.

This means they lose almost one weeks wages in that month which for those that come from the poorer side of the Thai chain will cause a few problems with feeding the family or paying the bills..

What makes you think that they'll get the days off?
