Cambodia launches crackdown on passports after reports Yingluck Shinawatra used foreign document to flee Thailand

• Corporate filings in Hong Kong showed Yingluck used Cambodian passport to register as sole director of a Hong Kong company that was incorporated last year
• Uncertainty remains over when Yingluck obtained passport, and whether it was diplomatic or civilian passport

 

Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has decided to annul diplomatic passports issued to anyone born outside the country, ordering such passports be issued in only the “most necessary” cases.

 

In a two-page instruction, issued last Wednesday, the prime minister also ordered all government bodies to retrieve such passports for a thorough check, the Phnom Penh Post reported on Monday. The instruction was issued the same day the South China Morning Post reported Thailand’s former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra, in self-imposed exile since 2017, has a Cambodian passport.
