bust Posted May 21 Author Report Share Posted May 21 "Asylum seekers from the neighboring country do not fare much better in Thailand, where they have no legal protection and live in constant fear of deportation" Or many are used for cheap labor (more often than not never paid) and then sent back. There is currently a large construction project on Sukhumvit between Sois 9 and 11. All Burmese labor living in these squalid camps in behind the site.

My Penis is hungry Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 And quite a large number of software people. They are very popular with the telcos. Not paid crap but not paid Thai wages. Still, better than being home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 But I would guess the Software people are here legit, Visa, Work Permit and paying tax, unlike most illegals on building sites or maids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
