Crackdown on workers moving between sitesSoldiers, police and thessakij inspectors will combine forces to keep an eye on construction camp sites in Bangkok after some workers were relocated despite orders for them to stay put, says the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA). Both Thai and migrant workers at several sites were found to be moving from one camp to another and spreading the virus, he said. Construction workers do not stay at one site for long. Bangkok has 409 construction sites, many owned by a few companies which shuffle their workers about, he added. Regular inspections of markets are conducted while Covid-19 testing of at-risk groups is being stepped up.
