Burmese Labor Minister Meets Labor Rights NGOs

The Irrawaddy reports on the recent meeting between Labour Minister Aung Kyi and Thailand-based labour rights organisations, including FED and MAP Foundation.
Burma’s Labor Minister Aung Kyi met with representatives of five NGOs at the Burmese embassy in Bangkok on Tuesday when they discussed issues surrounding Burmese migrant workers, their rights, and the conditions they work under. The meeting was arranged as part of President Thein Sein’s three-day visit to Thailand where he focused mostly on cementing plans to proceed with the Dawei Special Economic Zone.
