Cambodia and South Korea vowed to step up joint action against online scams after the death of 22-year-old South Korean student Park Min-ho in Cambodia stirred public anger at home. Vice Foreign Minister Kim Jina met Prime Minister Hun Manet in Phnom Penh; Kim pressed for tougher crackdowns and speedy repatriation of South Koreans and Park’s remains, while Hun Manet expressed regret and promised greater protections. Seoul imposed travel bans for several Cambodian areas as authorities move to repatriate 59 South Koreans amid arrests and detentions linked to scam centers that rely on trafficked labor.
