CAMBODIA has overturned a ban imposed last month on South Koreans marrying its nationals, after introducing new rules to combat human trafficking, the foreign ministry said.
Cambodia brought in the temporary ban after a matchmaker was sentenced to 10 years in jail for bringing 25 women from the countryside in an attempt to broker marriages with South Korean men.
Phnom Penh decided to lift the suspension after introducing changes including a requirement for couples to be together at all times during the marriage process, foreign ministry spokesman Koy Kuong said.
