Re: Should criminals be deported?
How about turning the issue on it’s head. An expat has been living in Cambodia for years and now commits a crime. He considers Cambodia his home. Then he commits a crime and serves his time in the big house. Isn’t it cruel that the government now deports him back to the west?
Re: Should criminals be deported?
The deportees are free to live as expats in other countries. They could move to Mexico or Canada for example. They are free to go where they can on a Cambodian passport. It’s not like there’s only 2 countries in the world...

What if that expat was running drug trafficking. Had a criminal intent from the beginning. What country doesn’t produce enough criminals of its own that it needs to import them?
Send them back.

Bet NONE of them held khmer passports so they would have only been sent back to their birth country, where they could apply for a pp an go where they wanted, IF they could get a visaThe deportees are free to live as expats in other countries.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

That's fucked. British citizens are paying taxis and are still getting deported. Man. They should take an Uber next time if they want to avoid deportation.chiltern wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2019 6:05 pm The problem in the UK was that between 1948 and 1973 people born in what was then British Colonies had the right to live and work in the UK and as this was a legal right did not need or were given any official documentation. Following the introduction of a new policy in 2010 to crack down on illegal immigration a number of these British Citizens started to have problems despite having attend school, worked and paid taxis in the UK all their lives. A simple act of applying for a passport or driving licence or indeed collecting a state pension could trigger an investigation and due to the lack of proof of entry dates threatened with deportation.
Over 80 people were in fact deported and others detained in immigration centers or refused re entry to the UK until following a lot of media coverage the government decided to investigate

Huh? Mexico and Canada don't grant visas that easily. Trynna get a refugee visa in Canada with an extensive criminal record in the US? Not gonna happen. European countries? hahahaha...
Is there a loophole in the law that would allow passport-less refugees with a criminal record to settle in countries other than Cambodia and the like?
Choices seem very limited for Cambodian passport holders... Countries in grey: Cambodian citizens must apply for a tourist visa before leaving Cambodia. A damn tourist visa...
