Fishy industry
Nowadays, Thailand has many industries and
hires the alien for working because they think that they can pay a little
money. The alien can’t chose their work and they have to work for living.
Moreover, they can bring some money to their family. However, this is illegal
for country and the alien can’t work in Thailand.
“According to the National Fisheries
Association of Thailand, 142,845 workers are currently employed by its members.
The study, carried out from May to September last year, found that 17 percent
of the 596 fishery workers it interviewed — 306 Myanmar nationals, 241
Cambodians and 49 Thais — were working against their will and were unable to
leave because of the threat of penalties. The other 83 percent said they were
working by choice. However, while 94.6 percent of the respondents said they
took up the job voluntarily, 5.4 percent stated that they were deceived or
coerced into working in the fisheries sector, ILO official Max Tunon said on
September 2.”
