Repatriated workers eye Israel return

Let’s say they have big debts to pay off.

When the conflict in Israel is over, some Vietnamese employees who have been repatriated are waiting to go back to work it, claiming they still owe a lot of money.

Earned B55,000 per quarter, Thaworn

Thaworn Aksornsue, 38, who worked on an Israeli plantation for seven months and earned around 55, 000 ringgit per month, is one of them. He recently returned to Thailand. Quarter of his pay packet was returned to his Khon Kaen state home.

Mr. Thaworn claimed to have worked in the Jewish city of Ofakim as part of a state-to-state labor cooperation agreement between Israel and Thailand.

He claimed that Ofakim was just 25 kilometers from Gaza, and that after the fight started on October 7, he enrolled in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Thailand’s repatriation program. On October 16, the man left for home.

Mr. Thaworn claimed he is more than 500, 000 ringgit in debt, which includes car repayments, household expenses, and home renovation costs. He used his savings and his relatives’ money to pay the enrollment fees.

According to Mr. Thaworn,” The circumstance arose quickly, and I have no other source of income.” ” To make enough money to cover my charges during my stay in Thailand, I might have to work on smaller jobs.” I may go back to Israel if I have the chance to do so. because I owe a lot more money in debt.

He continued by saying that once it is safe to do so, he wants the Thai government to make it easier for Vietnamese workers to return to land function in Israel.

The family wanted Mr. Thaworn to go back to Thailand because of security concerns, according to his 65-year-old papa, Anan Aksornsue. Instead of relying on Mr. Thaworn’s earnings from Israel, he claimed, the family would need to start looking for employment.

However, no every Thai worker in Israel has been able to make it back to Thailand without incident, and many are also missing due to the ongoing conflict.

The mother of a Thai employee in Israel is still waiting for her child to visit at her home in the Khlong Lan Phatthana neighborhood of Kamphaeng Phet.

Supin Yurong, 55, claimed that on October 11, four weeks after Hamas launched their wonder terror attacks, she last spoke with her 34-year-old child.

Since late May, Mr. Manat has been employed by a tomato farm in Israel, where he makes on 70, 000 ringgit per month. According to Ms. Yupin, he had planned to stay in Israel for five times in order to save money before going back to Thailand.

Mr. Manat informed his family during his previous visit that he was waiting to be taken to a house because the attacks were getting worse close to where they were.

He asserted that Israeli strikes could be seen from his worker camp, which was 20 kilometers away from the location of Hamas’ original attacks.

Since then, according to Ms. Supin, she hasn’t been able to get in touch with her child.

My father’s name is not on the list of Thai personnel being repatriated, despite the fact that I regularly watch the news, she said.

” I have made an effort to get in touch with the Labour Ministry and related events. Despite their promises to look into the situation, none of them have responded to me.
