Okhna Kok An (Khmer: កុកអាន), born Phu Kok An Chinese: 符國安; pinyin: Fú Guó'ān) in 1954, is a Sino-Cambodian senator and businessman, who owns Anco Brothers. Known for his close ties to Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen, An is one of the ten wealthiest men in Cambodia, with business interests in casinos, tobacco, alcohol, and fishing.[1][2][3] He has been linked to numerous controversies, including corruption, land evictions, cyber scams and human trafficking. In 2016, 70 Chinese nationals were arrested for running an online extortion scam at Crown Casino, which is owned by An.[4] In 2022, a Thai national was found dead in An's Poipet casino, which has been linked to cyber scam operations.[5]
