BORDER TROUBLES * Cambodia - Border snarl up as Cambodians demand truck payment
Poi Pet,Cambodia -The Nation/Khmerization -September 25, 2009: -- With no explanation, Cambodian customs officials in Poi Pet have stopped allowing Thai trucks to pass beyond their boundary by just presenting a copy of the truck registration book... Customs officials there yesterday demanded that the drivers present the original truck registration book and submit a security sum of US$5,000 (Bt167,750) each... Although the procedures are in line with customs regulations, they have long been relaxed... For years, trucks from Thai soil could move past the Poi Pet checkpoint by just presenting a copy of the truck registration book... When the procedures suddenly changed, more than 150 trucks got stuck in front of the Baan Klong Luek permanent checkpoint in Sa Kaeo's Aranyaprathet district on the Thai side... However, at 12.30pm, Cambodian customs officials agreed to let the trucks pass the Poi Pet checkpoint with just a copy of the truckregistration book for one day only... Labels: broder troubles
