BANGKOK (Reuters): The US Treasury Department has already taken action against scam compounds based in Cambodia and is working closely with the Cambodian government to keep fighting cyber-enabled fraud, US Treasury Undersecretary Erin Browne said on Friday.

Browne, who is now in Bangkok for the annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, said Washington was working with an array of partners across the Indo-Pacific region to build resilient and more secure supply chains.

She said the US would work with Vietnam to explore opportunities for deeper integration and cooperation.
