Civil Society Organisations are calling on the relevant authorities at provinces along the Cambodia-Thai borders to allow stranded migrant workers to enter the Kingdom.

 

The Centre for Alliance of Labour and Human Rights (CENTRAL) in Thailand Leung Sophon, told Khmer Times yesterday that he had seen many migrant workers stranded at the border and hope the authorities would let them in. It said that the migrant workers are staying at the border in the middle of a forest with no clean water, and electricity supply.

 

“They just want to get home to be with their loved ones. They are living with the hope that the authorities will open the border to let them in,” it said, adding that the migrant workers, both legal and illegal, want to return home due to the spread of the new Delta variant in Thailand. It said that Cambodians in Thailand are worried that they may get infected with the new variant if they do not return to the Kingdom soon.
