Fishing industry delegates are seeking help from the Thai and Cambodian armies to urge Koh Kong authorities to speed up concession contracts to Thai trawlers.
The plea comes after reports that four Thai trawlers had been seized by Cambodian authorities and more than 1,000 remained anchored, crippling the industry.
Trat Fisheries Association chairman Thitikorn Lohakupt said his association and representatives from the Fisheries Association of Thailand will submit a letter to the Thai-Cambodian General Border Committee (GBC) which will meet in Pattaya tomorrow.
Thai operators wanted Cambodia to urgently renew the concession contracts, he said.
