I thought the national minimum wage was now 300 bht per day. I know it is not being paid or enforced though.

The report seems to cover data up to 2009.

So somewhat outdated.

The old numbers for minimum wage might give an impression of how empowerished a province is.

And I thought the minimum wage would be for those with a university degree.

But I assume the best English speaking girls in Pattaya and elsewhere top the 300 baht per day benchmark immensely.

I think it was written in 2010. Sisaket doesn't look good at all. Please read the part "right for free education", etc..

note here we are talking about stats here not "Facts"

have you got the corresponding stats for growth of rabid NGOs?

Um, I think something got lost in the formatting translation.

What is the source of these data? What is "minimum wage"? Per day? What does "severely abused" mean? Smacked around? Not fed?

The source is somebody who doesn't want to be named. The minimum wage is per day and I truly hope that you know what "severely abused" means.

Severe punishments or criticisms are very strong or harsh.You use severe to indicate that something bad or undesirable is great or intense.

Abuse of someone is cruel and violent treatment of them. Or using another word. RAPED.

The source is somebody who doesn't want to be named.

Since the source does not want to name, there is no credible source to this report then.
