The Interior Ministry is trying to recruit industrial
businesses in the Laem Chabang area to open factories in Thailand’s troubled
southern provinces to create jobs and opportunities and, hopefully, quiet
violent unrest there.
Deputy Minister Thaworn Senniam called on companies in
the Laem Chabang Industrial Estate Jan. 31, trying to get commitments to
provide training or jobs for the predominantly Muslim border region where
more than 7,000 people have been killed since a separatist movement resumed
in 2004.
During the visit, Thaworn won a commitment from air
compressor parts maker SNC Former Co. to open a factory in the south.
Chairman Somchai Thaisanguanworakul noted the company has been supporting
children, particularly orphans, through its Thaokae Noi Project for some
time.
Somchai said SNC and NC Ford Mercury Ltd. together would contribute
equipment to vocational schools in the south to provide more opportunities
and cut unemployment.
