geovalin Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 PHNOM PENH (The Phnom Penh Post/Asia News Network): A minimum legal drinking age is being considered by the education, health and transport ministries in a bid to reduce traffic accidents, according to public works minister Sun Chanthol. Chanthol revealed the plan during a May 4 meeting with a delegation of companies led by the US-Asean Business Council. Kong Vimean, spokesman for the transport ministry, told The Post on May 5 that the plan to set an age limit for alcohol consumption was in its infancy, and that nothing had been drafted so far. “In our country, some who operate vehicles drink alcohol at all times and this results in many accidents,” he said. Vimean added that the ministries will also look into alcohol restrictions for people with specific occupations. He stressed, however, that no clear timetable has been set for discussions on this proposal. read more https://www.thestar.com.my/aseanplus/aseanplus-news/2022/05/06/new-push-in-cambodia-to-establish-legal-drinking-age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
