Work permit-holders in Thailand.
The number of Japanese holding work permits in Thailand is falling dramatically. As of September 2024, there were 23,603, compared to a peak of 36,666 in 2015. In the area of Bangkok where the author lives, there are communities of Myanmar people and Muslims. Lately I have been hearing more languages, which seem to be Hindi and Chinese.
