Regional countries need to take more steps to reduce human trafficking and illegal immigration, experts meeting in Phnom Penh said Wednesday.
More than 100 anti-trafficking authorities, diplomats and rights groups from across the region met to discuss the problems of trafficking to solve a complicated problem that spans borders.
Bith Kimhong, chief of the Ministry of Interior’s anti-trafficking department, called trafficking a “global issue” that is difficult to fight.
