spaces. Detainees should be allowed to live as decent humans from the
perspectives of hygiene, food, and health. Special consideration should
be given to women and children, ensuring that they enjoy the right to
decent life and right to education.
Ⅵ-4-4. Detention facilities should be improved to make them human

5. System for undocumented migrants subject to
deportation
A. Current status and problems
• Many undocumented migrants become subject to forced deportation from the
country due to the government’s policy related to crackdown and forced
deportation targeting them. The number of undocumented migrants is expected
to increase drastically by the deadline of period of stay of migrant workers who
are covered by the current Work Permit System and the Working Visit System.
There is a need to revise the relevant laws and regulations to improve the human
rights infringement situation caused by law enforcement officials’ arbitrary
judgment due to vague and wide-ranging legal requirements for forced
deportation.
