ISOC inspects One Stop Service center for alien labour registration in Samut Prakan

SAMUT PRAKAN, 9 May 2015 (NNT) - Colonel Tub Uthitsan, Director of the Planning and Coordinating Center of the Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC) visited the one stop service center for alien labor registration in Samut Prakan Province.

He said the center was kicked off on April 1 and would finish its mission on June 30. The center is aimed at registering and extending work permits for foreign workers who are in great number in the province, which is home to a large number of fishery activities.

Most of the alien workers in Samut Prakan are Burmese, Lao, and Cambodian. A total of 84,901 foreign workers registered with the one stop service center last year.

Col. Tub indicated that since the beginning of this year, about 22,000 alien workers and their dependants had registered in the province, with 334 of them being in the fishery sector. He attributed the lower number of workers registering to their returning home since Songkran.
