People's party MP Rangsiman Rome cautioned the Anutin government against terminating MOUs 43 and 44 with Cambodia, warning of potential international legal disputes (ICJ) over demarcation and compensation claims from transnational oil companies.
He urged Prime Minister Anutin to seriously suppress transnational scam operations, noting their significant economic impact in Cambodia (60% of GDP) and their reliance on resources and connections within Thailand.
Rome alleged specific Cambodian businessmen (Kok An, Ly Yong Phat, Benjamin Mauerberger) and BIC Bank are involved in these scams and money laundering, potentially linked to Thai politicians, and called for investigations into financial trails and cryptocurrency regulations.
