Cambodia has banned foreign men over the age of 50 from marrying local women in an effort to combat sham marriages and human trafficking, the Daily Telegraph reported.

Even those overseas men under the threshold will have to show they earn more than £1,539 a month – many times the average Cambodian wage – before they can tie the knot with a Khmer woman.

The new crackdown came into force at the beginning of the month.

South Korean men in particular seek Cambodian "mail-order brides" set up by agencies. The men travel to Cambodia, meet their prospective partners and marry a few days later.

50岁外国男不能娶柬女人

       澳大利亚《每日电讯报》报道,为了打击假结婚和人口贩卖现象,柬埔寨禁止50岁以上的外国男人娶当地女人为妻。

       即使是50岁以下的外国男人也必须要证实他们的月收入超过1539英磅(约16467元人民币)才能与高棉女人结婚,而这一收入是当地平均收入水平的好多倍。

       此新规定月初开始实行。

       韩国男人经常通过中介写信预订柬埔寨的新娘。这些男人去柬埔寨,见一见他们未来的伴侣,几天之后就结婚。
