In relation to the Vietnamese illegal fishing in Cambodia’s water border, local fishermen moved from their areas to the provincial office in Kampot in order to find out intervention from the authorities, but the problem has not been solved yet. On October 20, 2009 around 100 local residents came to protest in front of the provincial office to demand the authorities to take immediate action against the illegal fishing by Vietnamese people in Cambodian water territory, which resulted in the reduction of their daily income and the distinction of species of fish and other creatures in the sea.
