Cambodia remains stagnant on a U.S. State Department human trafficking watch list, with the country’s law enforcement actions not meeting the requirements of existing U.S. trafficking legislation.
“Because the government has devoted sufficient resources to a written plan that, if implemented, would constitute significant efforts to meet the minimum standards, Cambodia was granted a waiver per the Trafficking Victims Protection Act from an otherwise required downgrade to Tier 3,” the report reads, referring to the 2019 promulgation of the five-year National Strategic Plan to Combat Human Trafficking.
