Malaysia’s ambassador to Cambodia, Eldeen Husaini Mohd Hashim, said
the cordial relations between the two countries had enabled the Malaysian embassy in Phnom Penh to rescue 286 Malaysians duped by employment scam syndicates.
“In 2022 alone, we saved 250 people through the good coordination between the Malaysian embassy and the Cambodian police,” he said.
He said there are about 5,000 Malaysians in Cambodia, most of them successful businessmen. About 400 Malaysian companies are operating in Cambodia, he said. - FMT
