Man kunne jo godt frygte det kun er begyndelsen på en grim nedtur for Thailand.
Ikke at jeg ikke under Thaier at tjene 300,- om dagen, men den mega løn hop på en gang, det var urealistisk.
Saha Farm i MuangKhom, nedenfor på Engelsk. med 5.000 ansatte, betyder det en ekstra lønudgift på 600.000,- thb om dagen.
Resultatet ja det kan i jo selv læse. Plus alle varer er steget meget.
Fjerkræ vil helt sikkert stige i pris, ret hurtig nu.
LOP BURI BLAZE
Police alert at chicken plant after pay row
The Nation
Foreign workers suspected of torching factory
LOP BURI: -- Forensic police are pouring over the remains of a Saha Farms chicken processing plant in Lop Buri that was destroyed by a suspicious blaze that broke out late Saturday night.
"The inspection results would be known in a few days," Pol Lt Charnwut Ruengjab, who was working on the case, said yesterday.
While local police and provincial authorities have refused to comment on possible causes, migrant workers have been frustrated by the non-payment of their daily wages for two months.
Police have been stationed at the factory around the clock to keep an eye on the Cambodian and Myanmar workers and a fire engine has been put on standby.
Charnwut said the loss was estimated at Bt60 million.
Saha Farms executives have not spoken publicly about the incident. He refused to comment on the possibility of arson.
The workers had staged peaceful protests inside the compound since the middle of last week, demanding their Bt300 daily wages for the last two months.
About 20 Myanmar protest |leaders have reportedly pushed for a mass rally of about 3,000 |compatriots.
A small commotion, according to unconfirmed reports, erupted Friday night, leaving one vehicle wrecked and four motorcycles torched.
Ten fire trucks were called out to extinguish the fire, which took four hours, and police were mobilised from nearby stations to restore order, before six Myanmar workers were put under police detention.
The plant did not allow any media inside and managers refused to give interviews to local reporters.
Lop Buri-based sources said this Saha Farms plant had faced liquidity problems and was going to close down, without paying the back wages to more than 5,000 employees, mainly Myanmar workers and a sprinkling of Cambodians.
Many workers have also not been paid their full wages for previous months, on top of what they earned in the last two months, which |the plant fully owes to all the employees.
Deputy Governor Sujin Chaichumsak was the first official citing "a threat of arson from protesting workers", in his statement given on Friday night after visiting the complex in Chai Badal district off Sara Buri-Lom Sak Road.
The fire started from the main chicken-processing facility, which was almost totally burned down.
This facility has been declared off limits to the public, and provincial authorities said it might be ordered demolished due to the heavy structural damage.
A crime scene inspection source said an electric short circuit was |the prime suspected cause of the blaze, as long as no evidence was uncovered that the fire was intentionally set.

Jeg tror nærmere det drejer sig om at, i dette tilfælde, "kyllinge-slagteriet" ikke længere kan profitere uhørt meget af at ansætte underbetalt udenlansk arbejdskraft (dagløn 180baht).
Det er jo ikke, som Leif skrev, thaiér der er ansat,-men 5.000 udlændinge.
-Så absolut en fabrik der har spekuleret i underbetaling for at højne det personlige overskud.
-Prisen på deres varer er garanteret udregnet efter normal thai-aflønning, men nu ser de igen en chance for at hæve priserne.
Nøjagtig det samme ser man i det sydlige Spanien med de marokanske landarbejdere, som er illegalt ansat og bor i blikskure langt ude på markerne.
-Aflønningen er ikke for god, men profitten fejler intet :o

Al du skal have læse brillerne fundet frem ((8((
Korrekt der er mange udlændinge ansat ca 3000 ud af de godt 5000 i MuangKhom. Og det er der en ganske enkel forklaring på. Præcis som på andre store fabrikker / gårde.
1. De fik mindre i løn
2. de er mere stabil arbejdskraft
3. de arbejder mere
4. de stjæler mindre.
Så kan vi lide den forklaring eller ej, men det er sådan Thaier ser på sagen.
Nu ved jeg ikke hvor meget de fik mindre på Sahafarm, men på minibea med over 7.000 ansatte fik de 20 thb mindre / om dagen end Thaier. Og går vi ud fra det ja så er det jo en del mere end de 600.000 om dagen.
Om Sahafarm tjener på arbejderne.. jae logisk set så gør de da forhåbentlig... Men har ikke set deres regnskab, har du det AL,
Om de så er underbetalte, ja men de kommer jo helt frivilligt og er super glade for tjener en mdr. løn om ugen. selvom de får mindre end thaier.
Kan sammenlignes med øst arbejderne i DK.
Om det lige var hvornår helvede bryder løs, ja såen kan man også godt se på det, men jeg tænkte mere på hvornår tusindvis af thaier står uden arbejde fordi fabrikkerne flytter til andre lande.
