Season 1 Episode 27: Thailand's Little Myanmar

The Kingdom of Thailand has managed to get through recent economic crises and continue to enjoy steady growth. But with the country facing a chronic labor shortage, workers from neighboring Myanmar have been flooding into the country to take on low-paid, unclean and hazardous jobs, which most Thais prefer to avoid. These migrant workers put up with discrimination, deportation threats and mistreatment by employers on a daily basis. This episode of Asia Insight focuses on the struggles of the Myanmarese migrant workers in Thailand and the efforts being made to support them.
