Cheang Um, from Svay Rieng province, highly appreciated the cooperation of the two countries’ security forces in fighting crimes and maintaining security in the common border area, particularly in the fight against drug and human trafficking and preventing illegal immigration. “The three provinces effectively cooperated in dealing with violation of entry and exit regulations and of security and social order in the common border area of the three provinces,” the meeting agreed. The representatives discussed measures to promote cooperation and implement the plan to join hands to prevent crimes and ensure security in their common border area.
