In pictures: Burmese migrants' lives
Christopher, 47, Umpium camp

I have been here a long, long time. I just want proper ID papers so I can work outside the camp and live like a Thai.

Sometimes I sneak out of the camp to get a part-time job working in the paddy fields near here. But I have to be careful, so I can’t do it that often.

The extra money I get is really useful for my family.
