The Immigration Department is providing support to the family of a 26-year-old Hong Kong man who is suspected to be missing in Cambodia.

The department said on Wednesday night it had contacted China’s foreign ministry office in Hong Kong and the Chinese embassy in Cambodia, and was providing support and guidance in accordance with the family’s wishes, while not disclosing any details.

Hong Kong media earlier reported that a 26-year-old Hongkonger had asked for help on social media during a trip to Cambodia and was suspected to have gone missing.
