Oknha Kok An

About

Kok An is a Cambodian senator and chairman of the Anco Group of Companies. The group’s previously checked official website identifies him as chairman and describes businesses spanning consumer-brand distribution, electricity generation and distribution, and Crown Resorts casino operations. Anco’s origins date to 1993. His business activity has also included water infrastructure. In its 30 September 2008 report, The Phnom Penh Post identified him as Phu Kok An, the owner of Anco Brothers and a Cambodian People’s Party senator. The newspaper reported that the company’s Kien Svay water-treatment plant in Kandal had begun operating the previous month, while a second plant in Sihanoukville was still planned. These are dated reports of the projects’ status at that time, not a claim about their current operations. On 23 April 2026, the U.S. Treasury sanctioned Kok An and 28 individuals and entities in his network, alleging that he controlled scam compounds operating out of casinos and office parks. This is an attributed account of the designation and allegations, not a finding by Cambodia Monitor.
