Migrant rights group presses government on stalled registration
A migrant rights network has appealed to the Myanmar and Thai governments to reach a solution on a worker registration standoff, and to take steps to alleviate the exploitation of workers by brokers.
The call comes as the two sides prepare to meet in Thailand on 22 and 23 December to discuss the current problems, which have seen many workers unable to extend their legal status due to a lack of coordination and agreement between the two governments over a stalled registration program.
