Cambodia says it has dismantled scam compounds, while experts call for criminal prosecutions

Cambodian Prime Minister announced on Wednesday that the country has successfully eradicated the large-scale scam compounds that have previously brought the nation global notoriety. The government claims these operations have been dismantled, though the statement was not accompanied by significant new evidence to support the assertion.

International experts and other governments remain skeptical of the announcement, noting that the country has not yet addressed the need for criminal prosecutions. The situation highlights ongoing concerns regarding the persistence of these illicit operations and the transparency of government efforts to address them.
