I don't know if we are actually helping the refugees or harming them by allowing them to become completely dependent on foreign financial assistance. Who ever knows if one is actually doing "good" or not? All one can do is to keep an open mind and try one's best.
I chose to be here, but my family remains in BKK. But all in all I can't complain, if I had a better option right now I would take it.
The work isn't the most boring I have ever done, the salary isn't bad, especially for Thailand, and I work in an organization that supports education for refugees, so I do feel our work is making a small difference in the lives of people who through no fault of their own have had a rough go of it. I feel pretty good about the situation overall.
You wrote in another thread that you want to live in Mae Sot, well if you are an accountant and willing to work on a local salary package, we have an opening. |
