    Dear Ben,

    This is Mekong Film Fixer. I have extensive experience to work in Mekong Region, especially Cambodia. We provide all significant services needed for filming: scouting and location management, and permits issuing, equipment and crew to name just a few.

    Furthermore, we possess close relationship with many internal filming commissions of the host countries which not only helps shortening the processing time but also benefiting in reducing paper work troubling and financial expense. Please contact me if you need more information. For more detail, you can find us on: http://mekongfilmfixer.asia/
    Or email us: mekongfilmfixer@gmail.com

    Thanks for your kind consideration. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

    Best regards,
    Mekong Film Fixer
