The army admitted on Monday that it was impossible to completely seal Thailand s borders from illegal migrants, even as the Public Health Ministry confirmed the latest infection cluster at a shrimp market in Samut Sakhon was linked to migrant labourers.
Illegal migrant labourers are still crossing the border using natural channels, even though we have deployed a legion of soldiers to guard the demarcation. Our border is 5,526 kilometres long, said deputy army chief-of-staff and army spokesman Lt Gen Santipong Thammapiya.
