Myanmar country people who live in Thailand

The number of citizens living in Thailand is estimated to be around 4 million to 5 million in total, according to official figures and ground estimates.

This big body of labor is the driving force of the Thai economy, as well as the main source of foreign currency (Remittance), which flows back to families

The sectors currently employed are provided with a phased analysis from the largest number of populations to the least

1. Basic Workers (Blue Collar Workers)

(Population size: max | 3.5 million - about 4 million)

Percentage: approximately 80% of the total population of Myanmar

This is the backbone of Thailand's economy and the sector where the citizens roam the most

Main workplace:

Construction Sites (Construction)

Factory, workshops (Manufacturing - e.g.: Shrimp, Fish, Shoes, Garment)

Fisheries (Fishery) and Agriculture (Agriculture)

Median Income: 10,000 - 18,000 Baht

Correction: It used to be only 330-350 baht a day, but now there is a 400-a-day baht threshold in Bangkok and large industrial zones, so you can start with a base salary of 12,000 baht

Overtime (OT) only goes down to 15,000 - 18,000 baht usually

Nature: Physical labor major effort, accommodation and free water fire availability

2. Service Activities (Service Industry)

Main workplace:

Restaurant Staff (Waiters / Kitchen Helpers)

Housekeeper (Maids) and Childcare / Elderly Carers

Hotel Cleaning (Housekeeping)

Median Income: 12,000 - 22,000 Baht

Housekeepers often receive 12,000 meals - 15,000

Restaurant staff are 18,000 to 22,000 if Tips and Service Charge are combined

Sales and Market (Sales & Trading)

(Population size: intermediate | 2 lakh - 3 lakh)

Main workplace:

Shop Sales Staff (Pratunam, Platinum, MBK)

Vendors (trolley, small stalls)

Online Shopping Live Sellers

Median Income: 15,000 - 30,000 Baht

Special attention: Online sellers may be very good income, but they are currently the group most at risk of Thai Revenue Department audit and bank account closure (High Risk)

4. Skilled Workers and Interpreters (Semi-Skilled & Interpreters)

(Population size: moderate | around 1,000,000)

Percentage: About 2%

Are people who have language skills or know any exclusive crafts

Main workplace:

Hospital and Court Interpreters

Factory HR Interpreters and Leaders

Chef (Chefs), Hairdressers

Median Income: 18,000 - 35,000 Baht

If you work in large international hospitals and hotels, you often have higher incomes

5. Office Works and Professionals (White Collar & Professionals)

(Population size: small | 3 thousand - about 5 thousand)

Percentage: About 0.8%

Graduated and educated young people, the fastest growing group after 2021

Main workplace:

Engineering (Engineers), IT & Programmers

International School Teachers / Teachers (Teachers)

Company Office Employees (Digital Marketing, Admin, Coordinator)

Average earnings: 25,000 - 80,000 + Baht

Business restriction: In Thailand, with jobs not allowed to operate by foreigners (e.g. Civil Engineer Signing, Accounting Accounting) present, most Burmese scholars tend to negotiate with "Coordinator" or "Consultant" positions. The IT and Programmer field is the least limited and the highest salary

6. Business Owners (Business Owners)

(Population size: minimum | less than ten thousand)

* Percentage: About 0.2%

People who have invested their own currency in Thailand and set up businesses

Main workplace:

Owners of Freight Transport (Cargo) Gate

The owners of the great Myanmar restaurant

Gold shop and silver exchange counter owners

Average income: 50,000 baht to hundreds of thousands (profit)

It is people who make business profits, not salaries, and can get unlimited income depending on success

A brief review

If you look at the structure of the Thai Burmese labor force, there is a "pyramid" in shape, there is a large number of basic workers at the bottom (Base), and the more you reach the top, the fewer people

Compared with 5 years ago, however, the population in the Service Sector and White Collar Sector has been found to have improved significantly, which reveals the high quality of Burmese workers

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว การรับรู้เกี่ยวกับแรงงานเมียนมาในไทยมักถูกมองแค่ในฐานะแรงงานก่อสร้างหรืองานบริการเท่านั้น แต่ข้อมูลในบทความนี้ชี้ให้เห็นโครงสร้างที่หลากหลายและเจาะลึกมากขึ้นที่เป็นประโยชน์มากสำหรับผู้ที่สนใจหรือทำงานด้านแรงงานข้ามชาติ โดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่ง กลุ่มแรงงานพื้นฐานในภาคก่อสร้างได้รับการยอมรับว่าเป็นเสาหลักของเศรษฐกิจไทย ด้วยจำนวนประมาณ 3.5-4 ล้านคนและรายได้วันละ 12,000 บาทขึ้นไป ทำให้เห็นว่าบทบาทของพวกเขามีความสำคัญอย่างมาก ไม่เพียงแต่ช่วยขับเคลื่อนเศรษฐกิจท้องถิ่น แต่ยังมีผลกระทบโดยตรงผ่านเงินที่โอนกลับไปยังครอบครัวในเมียนมา ซึ่งเป็นแหล่งรายได้สำคัญที่ช่วยพยุงเศรษฐกิจทั้งสองประเทศ นอกจากนี้ยังน่าสนใจที่เห็นแรงงานเมียนมาในภาคบริการและธุรกิจประเภทต่าง ๆ อย่างเช่น พนักงานร้านอาหาร แม่บ้าน ผู้ดูแลผู้สูงอายุ หรือแม้กระทั่งเจ้าของธุรกิจขนาดเล็ก ซึ่งแสดงให้เห็นว่าพวกเขามีความสามารถและการเติบโตทางเศรษฐกิจที่ดีขึ้น โดยเฉพาะกลุ่มกลุ่มธุรกิจเจ้าของกิจการ ที่มีรายได้สูงสุดและเป็นกลุ่มน้อยแต่มีบทบาทสำคัญในการลงทุนและขยายกิจการในประเทศไทย ในฐานะผู้ที่เคยสัมผัสและทำงานร่วมกับแรงงานเมียนมา พบว่าหลายคนมีความพยายามในการพัฒนาทักษะ เช่น การเรียนรู้ภาษาไทยหรือฝึกฝนทักษะช่างฝีมือ ซึ่งช่วยให้พวกเขาสามารถเข้าไปทำงานในกลุ่มผู้มีทักษะสูงหรือกลุ่มวิชาชีพ เช่น แพทย์ พยาบาล หรือนักเทคโนโลยีสารสนเทศ ซึ่งในช่วง 5 ปีที่ผ่านมามีจำนวนเพิ่มมากขึ้นอย่างมีนัยสำคัญ อย่างไรก็ตาม โครงสร้างแรงงานที่เป็นรูปพีระมิดที่กล่าวถึง ทำให้เห็นว่าส่วนใหญ่ยังคงอยู่ในฐานะแรงงานระดับล่าง แม้จะมีความก้าวหน้าในบางกลุ่ม แต่ปัญหาวิกฤติแรงงานและความไม่แน่นอนด้านกฎหมายแรงงานก็ยังคงมีอยู่ และจำเป็นต้องมีนโยบายสนับสนุนและการปฏิรูปที่เหมาะสมเพื่อให้แรงงานเมียนมายังคงสามารถมีบทบาทในการพัฒนาเศรษฐกิจได้อย่างยั่งยืน ดังนั้นบทความนี้ไม่เพียงแค่ให้ข้อมูลตัวเลขและสถิติ แต่ยังสะท้อนมุมมองและภาพรวมที่ช่วยให้เราเข้าใจสถานการณ์แรงงานเมียนมาในไทยอย่างลึกซึ้งขึ้น และเป็นประโยชน์อย่างยิ่งแก่หน่วยงานรัฐ นักวิจัย และผู้ที่มีส่วนเกี่ยวข้องกับแรงงานข้ามชาติ
