According to Just Style, Cambodia’s Labor Ministry has announced that it will drop two clauses from the country’s minimum wage law.

On 16th October, it was announced that Article 16 will be removed. This law states that Labor Ministry approval is required before independent research can be done to determine minimum wages. Instead, labor courts will be established to settle worker disputes.
