The Cambodian Embassy in Thailand is cooperating with local authorities to facilitate documentation and legal assistance for Cambodian migrant workers after 259 Cambodians were detained when entering Thailand for not having proper documents.
Katta Orn, Spokesman of the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, said on Saturday that 256,213 foreign workers have been detained by Thai authorities to check that they are documented correctly to work legally in Thailand. Their detention is part of the annual 120-day campaign by Thai authorities to check up on foreign workers, and affects people from Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and other countries.
He said that according to the Thai Ministry of Labour, 259 Cambodians have been detained for entering Thailand without proper documents.
