Sharon approved bringing in Thai labor force to Israel

Originally published

The Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon has decided to permit bringing in some 8,000 workers from Thailand to work in the Arab agricultural sector which was greatly affected by the Palestinian Intifada.

The Israeli- Hebrew language radio said that Sharon gave his orders to bring in the Thai laborers urgently especially after a decision taken by the government provides for preventing the recruitment of Palestinian workers only in very special cases.

Worthy mentioning that the Israeli occupation authorities expelled most of the Palestinian workers who work in the territories of 1948 under the pretext of the grave security conditions.
