Migrant labourers relocated

The Labour Ministry yesterday moved 500 migrant labourers from Nakhon Pathom’s Wat Rai Khing shelter to Ratchaburi’s Institute for Skill Development Region 4, as the temple shelter was flooded.

The workers, who boarded 15 buses provided by the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority, were Cambodian and Burmese, including Karen and Shan people. There are now more than 3,000 people taking refuge in Ratchaburi's 27 shelters.
