What's up with Kampot ? Is it next in line ?

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.

Kgbagent, I must say excellent photo's, and so good of you to take the time to show them on the forum.
Have the Chinese taken on the existing Vietnamese casino? And if you go over to the fishing lake there is a new building being constructed, is this the new casino?

There is no Vietnamese casino, it's all being built by Sokha Hotels and Resorts, a Cambodian company.

JB is correct - it is owned by the Sokha Group - in name, as the main patronage is Vietnamese in bus tours during the day at least, but 95+% of the residents in the Casino/ Hotel rooms and the apartments behind are Chinese natives

You mean the fishing lake near the Catholic church or the recreation lake? The one near the casino has big signs 'No Fishing' whereas the other promotes fishing but never seen anyone fish.

Oddly, in true Asian style the focus on these apartments and shop fronts, is focused on the street frontage whereas the view from the rear is million dollar
