Change In Regulations For Burmese Workers


Recommended Posts

Posted

Our nanny is having to return to Burma, apparently all work permits issued to Burmese nationals under the Thaksin regime have been cancelled and people are being encouraged to report 'Burmese worker sightings'. This information is, according to our nanny, being broadcast on the TV.

Our nanny is exceedingly worried as am I. This seems a bit radical even for Thailand... can anyone shed any light?

I had not heard that. Does that include Tai Yai and Karen workers legally registered, do you know?

I'm not sure, our nanny who is Kai'in (spelling?) is sure that it effects anyone from Burma reguardless of tribe.

ian .... no news at all on that ... but aren't you leaving anyways?

I am indeed, however; I had hoped to leave our long-standing, loyal nanny in a rather more secure situation.

1,500 thai workers have not been able to get their work permits to israel from the offices in thailand as of the coup...

from 'ha'aretz on line' newspaper yesterday there was a single little blurb in a large spread about the coup, ... have tried to get hold of the writers of the article to find out sources, info, but am unable too...

makes me nervous now to go back with anon for wedding; he is leaving israel on an intravisa, what if they cancel his return back....

cant understand why thailand does the canceling as israel could care less about the coup

would love it if someone would actually check out thai policy now on thai labour working over seas/foreign workers in thailand ?

Last monday a squad of provincial police turned up at our neighbours place (he's building a 6 bed house) and took away 7 of his Burmese workers. (left 2) Then they came on to our farm, drove past our Burmese farm boys (all legal) up to where our house is being built. Questioned the foreman (all thai workers) and then left. :o This was the day before the coup. Just a coincidence?

Regards
