Thai businesses oppose government’s Bt400 minimum wage plan
Thailand’s business associations oppose the government’s plan to increase the national minimum wage to Bt400 per day and have suggested that an entry wage should be established instead, said Mr. Poj Aramwattananont, Vice Chairman of the Board of Trade of Thailand.
The Board of Trade and the Thai Chamber of Commerce surveyed the opinions of their members and found that 93.9% disagree with the plan to raise the minimum wage, as political parties promised to do during the election campaign.
