Centres to Help Legalise Migrant Workers in Thailand
Labour Ministry spokesman Ananchai Uthaipattanacheep revealed Wednesday that Thailand was planning to set up temporary migrant-worker registration centres across the country in the next two weeks.
“This way, migrant workers who have some necessary documents will not have to head back to their home nation to process paperwork and come back,” he said.
He said Myanmar would open five centres in Thailand to help verify and issue necessary documents to Myanmar migrants.
“We believe Lao and Cambodian authorities will also agree to establish such centres in the next two weeks,” Employment Department director general Varanon Peetiwan said.
