The Suixing system, a platform providing security services for Chinese travelers, students, and professionals overseas launched Thursday in Cambodia.
The system developer, Chinese Guangxi Suixing Technology Limited, signed the cooperation agreement with Cambodian Khmer Hunter Security Service Co. Ltd to put the service into use.
Users can send distress signals, check their orders on Suixing's mobile app and obtain the offline service provided by Suixing Guards, who are trained specially by Suixing Technology Limited and security companies in Cambodia and many other countries. The services include pick-ups, shopping trips, translations, private guards and more for the Chinese community in Cambodia.

The system was created to meet the security demand of overseas Chinese as the number of Chinese people living and traveling overseas has grown in recent years.
According to the Chinese National Tourism Administration, the number of outbound tourists have reached 122 million in 2016, of which about 800,000 traveled to Cambodia. It's estimated that this number will exceed one million by the end of 2017.
In the same year, the number of overseas Chinese students have reached 544,500. In just one quarter this year, Chinese investors have put non-financial direct investment into 2,170 companies in 129 countries and regions, with a total investment of 20.54 billion dollars. What’s more, the number of overseas Chinese workers have reached 10,000.
To complete the platform, Suixing has cooperated with Guangxi Youbang Security Service Company and security service industries in ASEAN countries, which has laid the foundation for the establishment of a global security service network.
