Complaints filed against Thai workers in Dawei, Myanmar
Local residents of Myanmar’s Dawei Township, Taninthayi Region, complained to the Immigration Officer on 16 November about Thai citizens who have been working at the Banchaung coal mining project without legal work permits since 8 November.
May Flower Mining Enterprises was granted permission to implement the Banchaung coal mining project on 2,100 acres of land near Kyunchaung Gyi village in the township. Thailand-based East Star Co Ltd already operated a coal mining project in the 60-acre No 2 plot by hiring workers through May Flower Mining Enterprises.
