Authorities Delight in Setting Light to Gambling Game Machines

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Phnom Penh: On the morning of July 19, 2018, the Chbar Ampov Districts Authority launched a campaign to destroy ten gambling game machines, (known as "fishing"), which had been confiscated during raids on local underground "fishing" gambling premises.

The District governor of Chbar Ampov said that gambling with money is strictly forbidden in any way, no matter in what form. He added that the "fishing" dens are bad for young people because they are often used for taking drugs and encourage general lawlessness.
As a result, the authorities decided to publicly set fire to ten of the fishing machines as an example.

There's no dollar laundry in those fishing machines, so they're a good target to show we're tough on gambling. yeah.
