Many brokers for migrants and workers continue to cross the Cambodian-Thai border despite the Banteay Meanchey authorities tighten their border security. There are no commands to direct them back as they are Cambodians, the Khmer Times reported.
As per the ILO report, Cambodia is a significant nation of origin for migrants. More than 1,000,000 are residing abroad since 2017 (UNDESA). Most look for work outside of the nation because of inadequate job opportunities domestically.
Since 2010, the Republic of Korea has become the second most well-known destination for standard Cambodian laborers. Cambodia likewise has a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Japan, however, few migrants travel there for work.
