The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation assisted with the repatriation of 36,262 migrant workers from foreign countries last year. Some of them were victims of human trafficking and abuse.
Secretary of State Ouch Borith said that the ministry looks out for migrant workers and stepped in to aid those in need in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia and China.
“The ministry helped solve problems of workers and provided services timely and effectively for Cambodian workers abroad,” he said at a meeting to sum up the work carried out last year and plans for this year.
