In the wake of a brief but intense border conflict between Cambodia and Thailand, a makeshift refugee camp has emerged in Cambodia’s northwestern province of Oddar Meanchey. Yen Luot, 59, along with his extended family, was compelled to leave Thailand to avoid potential violence against Cambodians.
Luot and his family, previously working in Thailand, have now returned to Cambodia amidst growing fears and escalating hostilities. Provoked by social media depictions of violence, Luot’s decades-long tenure in Thailand ended abruptly, leaving him concerned about the family’s future without jobs or stability.
With hopes for improved conditions, some like Luot’s daughter are undecided about returning. The border conflict, which involved over 520,000 Cambodian workers in Thailand, reached a ceasefire this week, but many are left without clear guidance on their next steps.
