Amnesty International released a report detailing corporate involvement in scamming operations in Cambodia. The report states that private security companies, which are connected to Cambodia’s military, police, and business networks, help sustain an industry based on trafficking, forced labor, and slavery. The investigation identified five private security companies where guards committed or facilitated abuses.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The findings expose links between Cambodia’s corporate actors and politically connected figures running criminal scamming networks. This exposure could threaten Cambodia’s regulatory standing and international investment. Furthermore, increased governance risk in the country might affect the Asian Development Bank’s funding access and lending viability.

Amnesty International actively monitors and scrutinizes human rights and humanitarian issues within Cambodia.
