Re: Thailand to get tough on foreigners working without work permits, employers also targeted
this is targeted at the many many Chinese & Russian business that are on the island running tour agencies and working as tour guides
Read more at http://www.thephuketnews.com/harsher-la ... TK07o39.99the most important provision was No 1 on the leaflet, which states: “If an employer employs a foreigner to work at a foreigner-forbidden position, the employer is fined with B400,000- 800,000 per employed foreigner.”
“This one is important because it is probably the most common one,” Mr Pitool said.
The other five provisions highlighted by the leaflet are:
• If a foreigner works in excess of the work as described in the work permit, the foreigner may be fined up to B100,000.
• If an employer allows a foreigner to work in excess of the work described in the work permit, the employer may be fined up to B400,000 per foreigner employed.
• If a foreigner works without a work permit or works in a position prohibited to foreigners, the foreigner may be fined B2,000-100,000, or imprisoned up to five years, or both.
• If a foreigner works on an urgent and essential nature without approval from a labour officer, he/she may be fined up B20,000-B100,000.
• Any person operating as a job agency for foreigners without a license may be fined B200,000-600,000, or imprisoned for one to three years, or both.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

It's good for Thailand, not so good for Cambodia.

Looks like they are hitting the employees the hardest. Everyone needs to look at their work contract much better from now on.
Also, they had better check what constitutes work a Thai could do.
The poor Thais must be losing billions to those evil foreigner employees.

All the Thais working abroad? Where exactly? Many Thais in Germany but, surprise, they need a work permit and/or residence papers. Just as is the case in pretty much most of the world.
Let me guess: some Thais took your job picking 2-Baht pineapples?

it didnt effect my ability to get work and i never stopped working
