Thailand to fly in Burmese workers
7 December 2011
The void left in Thailand’s labour force by the nearly 200,000 migrants that fled
the country to escape heavy flooding in recent months will be filled by thousands
of Burmese currently being brought into the country.
Burmese account for more than half of those who have fled since October, when
Thailand was hit by its worst flooding in more than half a century and close to
10,000 factories, many of which employ cheap foreign labour, were inundated.
