Dark allegations: Sinister claims made about ‘The China Project’ in Sihanoukville

[geovalin]

Several people have reached out to  Khmer Times  after the release of  four Filipino “victims” who say they were held captive at a complex in Preah Sihanouk province. They claim that dozens and possibly hundreds remain held against  their will  by an internationally  organised crime syndicate. The names, age and nationalities of former employees have been withheld for their protection. Upon their release, many were allegedly told that their safety would be in danger if they spoke out publicly.

 

It is not clear what the complex was designed for but employees said they received training as “con artists” and sources suggest it was also an illegal gambling operation paying $600 to $700 per month with illegal drugs as perks. Allegedly, the compound also houses sex workers. All newcomers had their passports taken away.

 

They said they want to share their story to get people currently working there  out of the situation and prevent others falling for similar “scams”. No one from the complex was available for comment. News of the complex first reached public knowledge when Filipino victims were released from the 10-building complex in Otres Beach, Sihanoukvile and managed to get in touch with their partners.
