MEKONG DELTA — Smuggling of fuel from Viet Nam over the Cambodian border continues despite the recent petrol price increase.

The fuel price in Cambodia increased to US$1.5 per litre, VND5,000 (US$0.3) higher than that in Viet Nam.

Most of the smuggling take place at night and sometimes during the day, usually by motorboat. Canvas covers hide the plastic containers that contain the fuel, police said.

In Kien Giang Province, some smugglers pour fuel in nylon bags and lay them onboard to transport them more conveniently.

During the flood season, smugglers often take advantage of the local terrain to escape the control of the anti-trafficking force.
