nationalInquirer Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 BANGKOK, May 13 (Xinhua)-- An estimated 50,000 Myanmar workers in fishing industry in central Thailand have called it quits and returned home while many more are believed to follow suit sooner or later. The migrant workers including those who had been employed and stayed in Thailand for many years have decided to return home and would not come back for jobs in this country anymore, Kamjorn Mongkoltreeluck, head of a fishery association in Samut Sakorn province, said on Friday. more @ http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2016-05/13/c_135357435.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Not a problem for Thailand. Prayut can activate 50,000 of the additional 300,000 reservists that he wanted to help promote the draft charter and have them go on fishing boats. At least they would be productive.

Koosdedooes Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I dont believe the number of 50 thousand, one suspects the whole of the thai fishing fleet even employs 50000, never mind 50000 bumese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pib Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 This slow shift to respecting and enforcing human rights is a hard change for Thailand to swallow...they'll have to chew on it for a while to see if they can stomach it. It will take time to develop a taste for human rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
