The CNRP has written a letter to the National Assembly calling for Interior Minister Sar Kheng to expedite the processing of passports for up to 1,000 illegal Cambodian migrant workers who have been languishing in Thailand for the past 18 months.

CNRP lawmaker Ky Vandara said the lack of documentation was problematic, because simple resident cards restricted their freedom of movement.
