Phnom Penh (FN), Dec. 13 –Richfarm Asia Co., Ltd wishes to inform members of the press and the public that recently there has been media publicity and individual social media postings that wrongfully implicate our company with the drug crackdown in Kampong Speu province.

"As a locally owned and legally incorporated agro-processing company, our shareholders believe in promoting agriculture and inspire to help uplift the lives of Cambodian farmers. Our company has successfully led the export of dried and fresh mangoes to international markets with pride and fame. We succeeded by modeling on OEM contracting and collaborating with existing partners operating in Cambodia," according to the press announcement seen by Fresh News on Monday.

"While it is unfortunate that our OEM contractor’s facility is located nearby the factory busted by the authority, neither our company nor our OEM contractor is any way or form linked or related to this illicit activity. It is with regret that such publicity and unprofessional journalism have caused public misunderstanding to the detriment of our shareholders and company’s reputation. The company therefore calls for the retract and correction of such publicity or legal action will be pursued should it persist."
