Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet, Prime Minister of Cambodia, said that starting from the midnight of June 12, 2025, all fiber optic network companies or internet operators in Cambodia will stop buying internet bandwidth from Thailand as Cambodia has the ability to provide sufficient internet services on its own.

On his official social post on the night of June 12, 2025, Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet said that there has recently been a lot of information being shared on social media in Thailand regarding threats by some extremist groups in Thailand to cut off electricity and internet supplies to Cambodia.
