The Labour Minister’s Advisor said that the government, under the leadership of Prime Minister General Prayuth Chan-ocha, focuses on promoting employment to help people affected by Covid-19 return to employment, supporting their income and promoting speedy economic recovery. The Ministry of Labour, under the supervision of Deputy Prime Minister General Prawit Wongsuwan, as a supervisor of the Southern Border Provinces Administrative Center, focuses on promoting employment, especially as most young people in the southern border provinces have not yet worked. The Ministry of Labour and agencies in the three southern border provinces, including Pattani, Yala, and Narathiwat, have integrated to promote systematic labour movement. It is considered a solution to solving unemployment among people in the area and solving the labour shortages in the country.
Mrs. Thiwalrat continued that the cooperation between the Ministry of Labor, the SBPAC and companies would bring youths from the southern border provinces to Phetchaburi. The Ministry of Labour will allow agencies to coordinate with the company, to take care of youths who come to work in the workplace.
