Most seek work outside of the country due to a lack of sufficient employment opportunities available domestically and the significant wage differentials of employment overseas. The primary destination country for Cambodian migrant workers is Thailand, with workers commonly migrating into the fishing, agriculture, livestock, construction, manufacturing and service sectors, including domestic work. Only a small proportion of these workers use regular channels to migrate due to the high cost, considerable time investment and administrative complexities involved. According to a survey conducted by the ILO and IOM, less than a third of Cambodian migrants use regular channels to migrate, with the majority relying on social networks and unlicensed brokers (53 per cent) to go abroad. (ILO and IOM, 2017). Since 2010, the Republic of Korea has become the second most popular destination for regular Cambodian migrant workers. Cambodia also has a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Japan, but far fewer migrants travel there for work, likely due to the technical requirements of the Industrial Training Program and Technical Internship Program. MOUs with the governments of Kuwait and Qatar were signed in 2009 and 2011, but so far, no Cambodian migrant workers have been sent through these channels. Bilateral agreements on the deployment of domestic workers abroad have also been signed with several destination countries, including Malaysia and Saudi Arabia. However, these agreements have proven contentious, with reports of abuse and exploitation of domestic workers recorded in all countries where Cambodian domestic workers are employed. In response, the Cambodian Government suspended ‘first-time’ migration to Malaysia for domestic work in 2011. After several years of a bilateral negotiation between Cambodia and Malaysia, an MOU to resume the deployment of domestic workers was signed in 2015. However, the restriction remains officially in place pending agreement on standard operating procedures for sending domestic workers abroad (ILO, 2017). The Cambodian Labour Migration Policy and Action Plan (2019-2023) outlines the government’s commitment to leveraging the benefits of labour migration for the country’s long-term development. The policy is unique within South-East Asia in applying a holistic and multi-ministerial approach to labour migration governance.

MATSUNAGA (Email: [email protected]) Summary The National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO) and the Cambodian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (CARDI) have collaborated since 2014 under the Plant Genetic Resources in Asia (PGRAsia) project to survey the vegetable genetic resources available in Cambodia. As part of this project, three field surveys of Solanaceae crops were conducted in November 2014, 2015 and 2016 in western, eastern and northern Cambodia, respectively. In November 2017, we conducted a fourth field survey in southern Cambodia, including the Svay Rieng, Prey Veng, Kandal, Kampong Speu, Kou Kong, Sihanoukville, Kampot and Takeo provinces. We collected 56 chili pepper (20 Capsicum annuum, 36 C. frutescens) and 4 eggplant (4 Solanum spp.) fruit samples from markets, farmers’ yards, farmers’ fields and an open space. After harvesting seeds from the collected fruits, the seeds were divided equally and half were conserved in the CARDI and the other half were transferred to the Genetic Resource Center, NARO using the standard material transfer agreement (SMTA).

  • Flood Season Situation Report #8 Monday 5 December 2011
    CAMBODIA – Flood Season Situation Report #8 Monday 5 December 2011 I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES UN agencies in Cambodia continue implementation of activities funded through the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) to food; water, sanitation and hygiene; agriculture; and shelter sectors. Most flood waters have now receded in most of the 18 affected provinces. The UN is preparing to transition from emergency response to early recovery mode, with UNDP preparing to lead the recovery phase from the UN side. II. SITUATION OVERVIEW The last data intended to be collected from NCDM’s data of 28 October, which showed that: o 350,274 households (over 1.64 million people) were affected including 700,000 children and 51,594 households were evacuated. o 18 out of 24 provinces in Cambodia have been affected with Kandal, Kampong Thom, Prey Veng and Kampong Cham the most badly-affected provinces. o There were 247 fatalities as a result of the floods. o 423,449 hectares of rice fields have been affected with 265,804 hectares reported as damaged. (With the total area of planted rice at 2,466,429 hectares, this represents 10.7 per cent of total crops destroyed). Ongoing or planned assessments by UN and partners include assessments of food security and nutrition, agriculture, WASH, health, education, livelihoods, shelter, child protection and infrastructure (with scope and scale of these varying from one sector to another). The results of these assessments are shared among UN and partners, with emphasis on ensuring identified needs and gaps in provision can be cohesively addressed. III. HUMANITARIAN NEEDS AND RESPONSE (Including CERF updates) Food – WFP WFP has identified 6 partner NGOs to distribute food to approximately 20,000 households under the Relief and Recovery Programme ‘Food for Household Recovery’, with first distributions scheduled to begin in the second week of December 2011.
