The ministry's spokesperson, Nikorndej Balankura, said the measure is solely intended to combat cross-border criminal activities, such as human trafficking and cyber scams.

Mr Nikorndej said that these measures are solely for the safety and security of citizens in both countries.

He emphasised that it is not a tactic to pressure Cambodia or sway any upcoming bilateral negotiations, and he urged the Cambodians to help counter misinformation.
