THAILAND - Immigration Police yesterday rounded up 26 Cambodians - most of them young children between the ages of 2 and 11 - at the Rong Kleu border market in Sa Kaew's Aranyaprathet district.
Police suspect a gang was preparing to take the Cambodians to beg on the streets of Bangkok and Pattaya.
Following a tip-off that beggars who had worked in Bangkok and Pattaya would be sent back to Thailand after spending the traditional Khmer New Year in Cambodia, authorities went to a reported meeting point at the market and arrested a disabled man, three women, nine boys and 13 girls. Police recorded their information and contacted Cambodian authorities.
Sa Kaew immigration police superintendent Pol Colonel Samkhom Tudso said the action was taken to prevent Cambodian kids from becoming victims of a gang, while creating a better atmosphere at the market, where Cambodian beggars sometimes pester tourists, especially foreigners.
He said police would continue to detain Cambodians found begging at the market ahead of the launch of the Asean Economic Community in 2015.
In related news, the Anti-Human Trafficking Division announced the arrest of Ma So, aka Missu Muhammad, 47, in Bangkok's Khlong Ton district for allegedly forcing a 7-year-old Myanmar boy to sell roses at night in parts of Bangkok such as Pattanakarn, Phetchburi, Lat Phrao and Sukhumvit.
The woman allegedly beat the boy and refused to give him food if he didn't sell all the roses given to him. The arrest was made after a complaint from the boy's parents.
The woman reportedly confessed to bringing four or five children to her place each day to sell roses for Bt300-500 (S$12-S$20). The children were given Bt20-Bt30 a day, and their parents sent Bt2,000 a month. She denied assaulting the children.

Does Hun Sen feel any shame for these poor Cambodian?

Shame on you, Hun Sen.
It is certainly sad to see the children of Angkor in this kind of humiliating condition!

Why are there so many (5 millions) of illegal Vietnamese in Cambodia?
There are only a small number of Khmer children and adults who need help, but unfortunately they did not get helps from Cambodia government under CPP regime.
Shame on CPP and Vietnamese dog Hun Sen!!!
What have CPP and Hun Sen done for the Cambodia country and Cambodian people?
These Khmer people need jobs and children need educations.
How stupid CPP is!
Let's vote for SRP!!!
Khmer Yeurng
Without having Khmer abroad 2.5 million strong,now
Khmer oppositions can't do anything
to Hun Sen and Vietnamese immigrants.
Khmer abroad should set up as groups
to protest on the streets,not few
hundred people,but half million people.That they can make a big difference.
Without being power movement to protest and money,they can't do
nothing.
Fuck you too ah 7:46 PM. I work since I was 8 yrs and I rather die if I must beg.
Fuck those dumb people have no pride and allow Thai to insult and look down on Khmers.
