Do they know it’s International Migrants Day? For the two million migrants in Thailand threatened with deportation from December 14th onwards, December 18th, International Migrants Day has no meaning at all. It is Day 4 of a crackdown which if carried through will bring injuries and deaths in the panic of raids and in the overcrowding of old trucks used to deport people to the borders, it will disrupt the education of children and the security and stability of families, it will destroy the livelihood of whole villages in Burma.
