Myanmar: Workers protest against PTTEP over wages, discrimination - company responds

Since the beginning of February 2015, workers operating on an oil and gas drilling platform operated by PTT Exploration and Production (PTTEP) off the coast of Myanmar have been protesting over wages and working conditions, and failed to reach an agreement with the Thai company.

We invited PTTEP to respond and the company did so.
