Foreign Affairs Minister Prak Sokhonn has urged foreign non-governmental organisations to comply with the Law on NGOs and avoid activities which could be linked to money laundering and terrorism financing. Mr Sokhonn and about 300 officials from ministries, stakeholders and members of foreign NGOs attended the first consultative meeting yesterday at the ministry in Phnom Penh. The meeting was held after the Interior Ministry last year announced to meet the representatives of local civil society organisations biannually to listen their concerns and solve issues.

In the opening session, Mr Sokhonn said that all NGOs should comply with the Law on Associations and Non-Governmental Organizations. “Please avoid at all cost, activities which could be associated or linked to money laundering, financing of terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, as stipulated by the [inter-governmental organisation] Asia/Pacific Group on Money Laundering, so that you could avoid falling into their grey list, which will cause negative effects on the financial system, flows of investment and political sentiment in Cambodia,” he said.
