PHNOM PENH: The construction of the Cambodia-Thailand Stung Bot-Ban Nong Ian international border crossing is now over 90 percent complete.

The update was shared with the Minister of Public Works and Transport, H.E. Peng Ponea, during his inspection visit to the site this week.

The construction of the Stung Bot international border, located in Poipet city, Banteay Meanchey province, started on April 22, 2019, and is expected to cost about $26.42 million.
