Has the Ministry of Labor decided to start relying on Google Translate, or is this the serious work of a translator? Neither would surprise me, it's certainly one of the worst official translations I've ever seen!!!

Thailand has handicapped expression into foreign languages. Both the government and the professional translation association are far behind up to the global recognition of seriousness of language translation. As a senior translator, I personally moved to assist the association but a number of hindrances remain. The association always ignores my cordial requests.

My experience has been less than favourable. Aug 11, 2015

It is difficult, to say the least, working with official Thai organisations and I applaud your personal involvement with the MOL.

ASEAN implementation might help this issue? It should nonetheless highlight the issue

I recently spent much time on machine translation approach since ASEAN Economic Community scheme and globalization demand more involvement of Thai English language-pair translation and interpretation careers. TM is an economic way to overcome the handicap. But the professional translation association is against my personal contribution. They say they want to strongly protect human translators etc.

I can easily prove how to use Google Translate to convert English Thai texts very accurately and efficiently since I continuously listen to and enjoy a series of state-of-art lectures of Google algorithm (e.g. via YouTube video).
