The Defence Ministry prevented more than 4,000 border crimes so far this year and has pledged to continue cooperating with neighbouring countries to fight crime. A report posted yesterday by ministry spokesman General Chhum Sucheat on his Facebook page said that the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces cracked down on 4,233 border crimes over the last nine months.

 

He noted that there were 2,054 crimes along the Cambodian-Thai border and 1,008 and 1,171 respectively along the Vietnamese and Lao borders.

Gen Sucheat did not provide details of the crimes and could not be reached for comment yesterday.

 

He noted that during this period, RCAF focused on diligently carrying out its tasks set by the government. “RCAF redoubled its efforts to protect the sovereignty and integrity of the nation in all areas along the border,” Gen Sucheat said, adding that soldiers keep patrolling the borders to seek out transnational crimes.
