PHNOM PENH, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia and Malaysia will sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for anti-human trafficking cooperation, a Cambodian governmental official said here on Tuesday.
"We are preparing the draft MoU for anti-human trafficking cooperation between the Cambodian an Malaysian governments and it will be inked soon," Ith Rady, secretary of state for the Justice Ministry, said at a seminar on investigation skills against human-trafficking crime.
The issue of human trafficking is one of the primary concerns of the country and the Cambodian government has the goodwill to combat human-trafficking crime in conjunction with other countries, he said.
The criminals have adopted many new ways to transport and exploit the victims and human-trafficking acts have seriously affected the social order and human dignity, he said.
"It is a serious crime and also a border-crossing crime," he added.
Cambodia already inked MoUs for anti-human trafficking cooperation with two regional countries, Vietnam and Thailand.
Meanwhile, the Cambodian government established a working group to cope with the crime, which is headed by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sar Kheng.
