Australia Prime Minister Tony Abbott says Government would welcome decision by Cambodia to accept asylum seekers

4 April 2014

Australia Prime Minister Tony Abbott says he would welcome a decision by Cambodia to accept asylum seekers from Australia. Immigration Minister Scott Morrison is in Cambodia, where he has held talks with the country's interior minister to follow up on an earlier request for the country to help resettle asylum seekers.

In February, the Cambodian government revealed that Foreign Minister Julie Bishop had asked their country to accept some asylum seekers. Mr Abbott says any cooperation or support Cambodia could provide would be appreciated.
