There has been a lot of news circulating on social media in Thailand regarding threats from some of the Thai extremist groups to cut off electricity and internet to Cambodia.
In order not to prolong or cause difficulty for Thai parties to decide whether to cut off or not, or when, Cambodia has decided to ensure its own electricity and internet supply.
H.E. Chea Vandet, Minister of Post and Telecommunication, just reported to me that from 12 o'clock tonight, all cable optic companies or internet operators in Cambodia will stop purchasing internet (Internet Bandwidth) from Thailand, because we can afford to supply our own internet services.
Apart from H.E. Keo Ratanak, Minister of Mines and Energy, has already stated that Cambodia's ability to supply electricity in Cambodia on its own.
In addition to the two ministries above, I have ordered Cambodia’s Ministry of Institution to review and prepare the case to impose further measures if there is any other cut off threat to Cambodia as well.
