Project launched to empower migrant workers in Thailand
BANGKOK, March 11 (TNA) - A project on raising bargaining and negotiation power of migrant workers in Thailand has been jointly launched by Finnwatch, a
Finnish civic organisation focused on global corporate responsibility, and the Migrant Worker Rights Network (MWRN), a migrant workers-advocate non-governmental organisation (NGO).
The three-year project, financially-sponsored by the Finnish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was introduced in Bangkok on Wednesday.
The initiative is aimed to boost quality of life of migrant workers in Thailand, through improved employment terms and conditions.
Currently, there are more than two million migrant workers in Thailand, most of whom are from Myanmar, followed by Cambodia and Laos. (TNA)
