Point of view on the implementation of MRAs

by Mrs. Nittaya Iyarawong, representative from the Department
of Labour and Welfare

For this dialogue, I would like to mention about these
following points;

Firstly, at present, the Royal Decree on Managing the
Work of Aliens B.E. 2560 is enforced. According to the Royal
Decree, the qualifications of foreign workers who can work in

Thailand is stipulated. Furthermore, this Decree also reduces
the restriction for some professions in accordance with the

Royal Decree on Occupations and Professions Prohibited for
Foreign Workers B.E. 2522.

Secondly, besides the regulations, there are also
other factors which are considered obstacles to mobilization,
for example, the attitude of the employers and people in the

host country. Additionally, language and the understanding
of domestic country are also restrictions on mobilization.

I think that these obstacles make the implementation of MRAs
difficult and it takes time to solve these problems.
