Khmer people living along the Cambodian-Vietnamese borders in Svay Rieng province have said on Sunday that the Cambodian and Vietnamese authorities have tightened and restricted border crossings at Daung commune of Romeas Hek district, reports Deum Ampil.
Mr. Phat Chhin, a villager from Tuol Prey in Daung commune, told Deum Ampil that in the last one month, authorities of both countries had tightened border crossings with strict ID checks at many checkpoints along the borders. He said he supports the measures because they were taken by authorities from both countries to ensure the safety and security and also to avoid disputes and conflicts between the citizens of both countries.
Mr. Chy Suos, also from Tuol Prey village, said the border crossing restrictions didn't just happen now, but it happened a long time ago, especially by the Vietnamese authority.
