Cambodian force raids illegal overseas phone call businesses [-Many gov't officials were involved in the crimes]

May 30, 2007

The government carried out a joint raid here on Tuesday on two houses allegedly operating illegal overseas phone gateways and detained around 10 suspects, local media said on Wednesday.

The team seized many traffic tools used to steal international phone services, reported Cambodian daily newspaper the Kampuchea Thmey.

The inspectors asked the government to take firm measures against such illegal companies, as they cost the country more than 40,000 U.S. dollars a month in revenues, it said.

Many government officials were involved in the crimes, as they possessed the skills or relations, the inspectors said.

The raid was conducted by a joint force including inspectors and officials from the Posts and Telecommunications Ministry and the municipal court, the paper added.

I don't understand what are they
talking about, but 40k/month aint
that much. I hope it don't cost
us more than what we'll save.

Anyhow, anyone know how to crack
a phone card pin number? LOL.
I need it to keep in touch with
my friends all over the globe, hehehe.
