Minister blasts labour rort

Labour Minister Padermchai Sasomsap has vowed to clamp down on job brokers who are overcharging Thai labourers seeking work in Taiwan.

The minister made his commitment following a meeting yesterday with Grerksak Sakbodin, chairman of the Thai Overseas Manpower Association.

Mr Padermchai said the total cost of sending a Thai labourer to work in Taiwan on a contract basis is about 75,000-100,000 baht per head, including flights plus accommodation and food provided to the worker during his stay.
