THE government has accepted all applications from South Koreans seeking to marry Cambodians since a temporary ban on such unions was lifted in April, an official said yesterday.
Koy Kuong, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said a total of 300 applications had been processed in the past three months.
The ban was announced in March after a marriage broker was sentenced to 10 years in prison for recruiting 25 girls from rural areas and arranging for them to be paired with South Korean men.
