Cambodia's National Assembly has unanimously passed stringent anti-cybercrime legislation, introducing life imprisonment for operators of scam centers where fatalities occur. The law targets violent fraud operations, with penalties escalating from heavy fines to life terms based on the severity of offenses.

Justice Minister Koeut Rith emphasized the law's deterrent purpose, signaling Cambodia's zero-tolerance stance. Recent enforcement actions include the extradition of fugitive tycoon Chen Zhi to China, underscoring regional cooperation against financial crimes.
