Health insurance extended
In a move to help the government cope with Thailand’s ageing society, the cabinet on Tuesday approved a proposal to let freelance workers up to 65 years of age register under the social security system.
This decision will benefit the 4.36 million self-employed people aged 60 to 65 who are still working, deputy government spokeswoman Ratchada Dhanadirek said after Tuesday’s cabinet meeting.
