The Goodwill staff justifies this saying they do not want to do anything illegal, and that they might have to close the school if police caught clandestine workers studying there.
Not to completely disagree with your point (It would be better if they did help the immigrants), they do have a point themselves. Getting shut down is not going to help anyone and yes the police would probably do that, as there isn't much love loss between Thai's and Cambodians or Burmese right now. I mean think about why these woman don't have WP's (because the Thai Government doesn't want them here), so if this place was to start teaching illegal aliens. What do you think would happen? There are aid agencies that do deal with refugees here in Thailand, but they are sanctioned to do just that. Maybe you should lighten up on this place, unless they're embezzling or not teaching these less fortunate Thai Women.

I mean do you think the Goodwill in Los Angelos wouldn't get raided by INS if they were doing the same thing for Mexican women?
