The operation was coordinated by the National Police and the provincial police, with a focus on protecting residents and domestic and international visitors.
Figures show that Preah Sihanouk province received 77,474 visitors on September 22, up 32.72% year on year. These included 75,629 domestic visitors, up 33.49%, and 1,845 international visitors, up 7.39%. The figures illustrate the province’s strong appeal during the holiday.
