Helping the Vulnerable Migrant Worker

Helping the Vulnerable Migrant Worker

In Thailand, they come from neighbouring countries that are less developed. Places like Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, etc, where generally the daily wages of the main breadwinners are insufficient to support a family.

Migrant workers in the Thailand are considered important workforce that help the economy...YET they may be mostly forgotten when it comes to their needs and general welfare.

Mr P (not his real name) is a Cambodian, seeking to find better income for himself and his family, therefore he came over to Thailand to look for jobs. As a young couple, he and his wife worked hard, but when his wife became pregnant  and gave birth to a son, they realised that this  baby (NT) was born with congentital heart disease, which needed him to be operated on. 

For a year and more, they tried all ways to reach medical assistance for their baby, but as 'aliens' in Thailand, they have no access to subsidised expensive heart operations. 

Mrs P said, "My son is always blue in his whole body from lack of proper circulation of blood to his body, and he is crying all the time."  This desperate situation began since his birth till he was 1 year old, and he could not develop physically from his disability. The doctors said that his lifespan would be short.

The couple had rented a  small room in Klong Toey slums as it was their cheapest option. Though there were numerous NGOs who work with the people there, none seem to offer any substantial help except for a small NGO, Baan Chiwit Mai Jaisamarn whom our Foundation for Life partners with. Through much red-tapes, struggles and networking, we finally were able to secure funds for a major heart operation for NT.

Everyone who knew the couple rejoiced at the news that at last there was a ray of hope for NT. According to his parents, almost immediately after NT's heart operation, his complexion was normal and stopped being "blue".

Our volunteers visited NT and his family, and were glad to see that NT is now a playful little boy as he should be, crawling and stumbling along in his little home of just 1 small room. At 1 and a half years, he may have much to catch up with his peers, but at least he now has the opportunity. However, his medical rehabilitation journey is still unfinished, as he has to undergo futher operations as he grows up, and we hope that he growth developmental stages catches up, as a normal kid.

"Thank you all so much for your support, my family and I are ever so grateful to God and  you for all the help extended to us!" said Mr P (almost tearing up whenever he recalls his experiences.)

The Foundation thanks all who through your generous donations has  helped many "little people"  in more ways than one.
Let us not grow weary in doing good, but be rich in good deeds, generous and willing to share for we know now the impact it has on another's life!

Keep it up donors!!
