Takeo provincial governor Lay Vannak yesterday requested his Vietnamese counterpart in An Giang province to stop their farmers from renting land from Cambodians along the border between both provinces. Swift News reported yesterday that Mr Vannak and his officials held an annual meeting with Vuong Binh Thanh, chairman of An Giang provincial People’s Committee, and said that Mr Vannak asked Mr Binh Thanh to advise his people to stop renting Cambodian land for rice farming along the border because it was a very sensitive issue.

 

Reached by phone yesterday, Mr Vannak declined to comment. Major General Sok Samnang, Takeo provincial police chief, who joined the meeting, also declined to comment.

Mr Samnang referred questions to provincial administration chief Moeng Vuthy who could not be reached. Mr Vannak also urged the governors of Angkor Borei, Borei Cholsar and Koh Andet districts that border Vietnam’s An Giang province to ask land owners to stop leasing their farms to Vietnamese farmers or hiring Vietnamese workers to work illegally in Cambodia.
