According to international employment agencies, the military coup in Myanmar has suspended the sending of immigrant workers to Thailand through standard programs.
While employees can go to other places with certain limitations, the giving of employees to Thailand was suspended as of Friday, according to The Irrawaddy, an independent media page.
According to a cause for the organization, Junta officials reportedly gave the Myanmar Overseas Employment Services Entrepreneurs Association dental guidance but refused to issue written ones.
When we requested a email confirming the shutdown, they responded that it was a rhetorical order. They claimed that just Thailand and other nations are suspended, and that other nations are not.
On Wednesday, 140 employees sent by four career companies to other nations were late submitting their exit permits at Yangon Airport.
The military government no longer allows men between the ages of 18 and 35 to keep because it needs more troops because of growing tension from ethnic forces and other resistance fighters.
Despite having allows for both work and travel, gentlemen are frequently denied the ability to fly from Yangon Airport.
As of March 2024, there were roughly 2.3 million publicly registered migrant workers from Myanmar in Thailand, or roughly 70 % of all registered refugees in the nation, according to information from the International Organization for Migration.
The Irrawaddy reported that Singapore this month urged businesses to relocate because Myanmar employees might not be accessible.
” The companies overseas inquired whether we could also give the workers they needed.” But we don’t understand what to solution”, said an agent.
