Immigration police have raided kebab and roti shops owned by Myanmar vendors in the Khao San Road area as part of a crackdown on foreigners working in jobs reserved for Thai citizens.
A team of undercover officers assigned to check the popular tourist area on Tuesday reported finding many Myanmar nationals selling food on Rambuttri Road adjacent to Khao San Road, said Pol Col Kachapon Pattamang, inspector superintendent for Immigration Division 1.
The vendors noticed the officers and ran away before police approached them.
