Hendy's UK passport is 99 percent like mine. Only his says "British Overseas Citizen" and mine says "British Citizen." He was entitled to such a passport and he applied for it when he came to the UK from Malaysia. He was told it would enable him to live and work in the UK. As it turns out this is a very peculiar passport. Now that he has it, Hendy has no rights at all to live or work in the UK. He is a trained accountant but has to work illegally in a restaurant to make ends meet. He lives in a small flat with eight other workers. He has never seen his baby girl. He communicates with his family in Malaysia via Facebook. As he had to renounce Malaysian citizenship, he is unable even to go back. His life is suspended. There are hundreds like him.
