Phnom Penh: Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training spokesperson Sun Mesa on July 24, 2026, called on all social media users to stop reposting old news about the problems of Cambodian workers working in Saudi Arabia, which causes misunderstandings.
Mr. Sun Mesa said that recently, some social media users, who are social media activists, have uploaded videos of the problems of Cambodian workers who have been requesting assistance from the authorities in Saudi Arabia. The video showed a request for assistance to help them return to Cambodia.
He said the video was made last year and they were helped to safety by Cambodian and Saudi authorities, and they returned to Cambodia immediately. Therefore, please delete all these videos to avoid confusion from the public.
The spokesperson stated: “The Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training always pays attention to the needs of our brothers and sisters working abroad, waiting to help facilitate the resolution of problems as quickly as possible.” “We do not want our brothers and sisters to suffer abroad, but to help coordinate both the national and international legal mechanisms.”
Once again, the Ministry of Labor spokesperson called on social media users to share information with clear, factual information, avoiding spreading fake news or old information that has been around for years. This will result in legal action.
