Khmer Times has been actively reporting various cases of recue of various nationals from human trafficking rings which traded people who were lured into the online gambling scene throughout the country, be it in Sihanoukville, Koh Kong, Phnom Penh and Thai border provinces.

 

Now Kandal became the latest to be dragged into this quagmire when 44 Indonesian nationals were rescued from online gambling syndicates in the province’s Chrey Thum district on February 26 after days of negotiations and careful planning and coordination with Cambodian law enforcement agencies and the Indonesian Embassy in Phnom penh.

 

While the rescue of the 44 is not really shocking as such incidents have received widespread coverage in Khmer Times and other vernacular media, the exposure that more than 30 of the 44 rescued, had gone through a harrowing time when they were traded like cattle by another online gambling syndicate from Sihanoukville to Chry Thum and relocated there.
