Oh no, is this the end of happy ringpull prizes ?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

By law, Gambling is prohibited to native Khmer in Cambodia.

Grandma is routinely busted playing cards at home.

Forget National Lottery.

In Cambodia, if you drink beer in cans (with ringpulls), you will find yourself taking part in a lottery, like it or not.
That means that if you want to drink beer, then you are OBLIGED to gamble. :shock:
Spoiler:
You open a can of beer and you win. Or, you lose and you try again.
I guess that's what the authorities mean when they talk about Cambodia's "win-win" strategy . :wink:
