in Tak province in western Thailand along the border with Myanmar. The bus was heading to a factory in an industrial zone near Bangkok. Police and a survivor said the workers were from Myanmar.

The cause of the fire wasn't immediately known, but Raewat said the driver reported the fire started in the middle of the bus and spread quickly. People in the front managed to escape but those in the back of the vehicle were trapped.

A survivor, Pa Pa Hlaing, described the accident by phone to The Associated Press. She said some passengers had smelled something burning, but went back to sleep because they assumed it was smoke from outside.

"When we were asleep, some people from the back of the bus started shouting and screaming 'fire, fire' and as we awoke, the smoke was already filling the bus," said the 19-year-old from Myanmar. "We couldn't see anything or breathe. We just tried to get out of the bus as soon as possible. We were just rushing toward the bus door. I don't even remember how I actually got out of that bus. There were bruises all over my legs as I was just randomly running around Newport Cigarettes Website. Then, three minutes right after we got out of the bus, the flames just swallowed the bus."
