The cabinet approved the Labour Ministry's proposal for foreign migrant workers to extend the deadline for registration of their work permit renewal to mid-May.
Deputy government spokesman Traisuree Traisaranakul said on Wednesday that migrant workers from Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam, whose employers still want them to work in the country, will be allowed to have a 90-day extension to May 15 from the previous deadline of Feb 13.
