- They were forced to flee their countries of origin to escape the violence or persecution at the hands of the government of the day. But until today, they’ve not been recognized as citizens despite living in their adopted country for decades.
They also have no access to education, employment, healthcare and freedom of movement. But like the citizens of any country, they’re dreaming of a better future for themselves, free of poverty, inequality and conflict.
Who are these stateless people? What will their future be like? Should they be granted the protection and opportunities to prosper and thrive in a country they have lived in for generations? Or will they remain stateless forever?

I was born in thailand but not recognized as a thai citizen. My parents are laos. Im in the usa now stateless.
If you ask Thai people if we should give these people Thai nationality, I could not imagine who will say no. The problem is a backward nationalistic citizenship policy which is leftover from the cold war era.
Almost everyone would say no
This made me more cherishing what i have as an ordinary man

This sounds very similar to Rohinga
No, Thais don't hold any racial or religious hatred towards these minorities.
He said, he practice football on holiday. But the subtitle said “they call me a foreigner” is it hard to thibk of new content?
why does it say that the country was never colonized, the problem of racism has not been completed, while Indonesia has started to disappear when colonized racism has started to disappear?
As long a there are illegal border crossings there will be stateless people. Thais don't have a problem with giving citizenship to ethnic minorities as long as the tribes can be proven to have lived within Thai borders. Problem is it's hard to tell who's native ethnic minority and who are illegal migrants from neighboring countries.
At 0.18, just the start of the video, the substitle doesn't match what he is saying.
I don't see trolls from the west touching on issues like this.
My grandparents born in China also ‘Alien’ but they can go anywhere in Thailand.
They arrived as refugees, why not help them at least give a resident alien certificate so they can avail and access what is necessary essential such as education and health. I hope that boy excel in sports, and apply somewhere else who will accept him. If he succeeds, I am sure that it is a great loss for Thailand to let go of a talented treasure.
if they have descendants it would be a vicious cycle
Feel sorry for them.
How can people be so cruel? We all bleed red blood ffs
One of the requirements for citizenship to any country anywhere is if you are born there. These children who were born there from parents who came from somewhere else should not even be a considering factor the only thing that matters they were born in Thailand so they should be considered citizens.
That's called unrestricted birthright citizenship, 35 countries have it including the U.S, but Thailand has restricted birthright citizenship meaning you need atleast 1 thai parent to be a citizen, many of these stateless kids don't have that
Not all country does that, most Southeast Asian countries recognize citizenship by blood.
At least Thailand is much cleaner than Bangladesh n more safe to stay
I feel sad upon seeing how our people suffered. 😢😢😢
So they don’t want to give them status even though some of them are born there and others have lived there their whole lives but if they even think about going outside their designated area they need to get “permission letters” from the government to be able to do that it seems like the government wants it both ways that wants to be able to control them and watch their movements but it doesn’t want to give them the same rights as in the other citizen who lives there that doesn’t seem very fair
