rooster59 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Myanmar workers continue border run for documents By The Sunday Nation More than 30,000 undocumented Myanmar workers have been repatriated via the Mae Sot border checkpoint in Tak since the new labour law came into effect, a senior immigration officer said. Tak immigration police chief Pol Colonel Man Ratanaprateep, confirmed the number yesterday. He said that Myanmar workers continued to return home to seek proper documents to meet the requirements of the new law. The law took effect on June 23, although it will not be fully enforced until a grace period expires at the end of the year.

yellowboat Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Nothing more productive than a paper chase, especially one that requires miles of travel at the expense of an entire country's economy. A job well done. The country is now secure from having too healthy of an economy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
