BANGKOK, Oct. 9 (Xinhua): Thailand's Ministry of Labour has issued an announcement in multiple languages advising Laos, Myanmar and Cambodian migrant workers to quickly have their work permits renewed before the Oct 31 deadline, or face stiff punishment and be immediately deported back to their countries.

Labour Minister Suchart Chomklin said he has been very lenient on migrant workers due to concerns of rising Covid-19 (coronavirus) cases in their countries, adding that Thailand is experiencing a shortage of migrant workers.
