Chinese Media Reports Exodus From SHK

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Yes I’ve seen them but my friend can’t show the field ones as he will be in trouble.

It’s real.

Will gambling ban hit Cambodia real estate?
A recent government decision to stop issuing new online gambling licences in Cambodia has many speculating that inflow of both capital and visitors from China will take a hit in the coming months. Real estate insiders, however, say that the move only serves to improve the quality of investments coming into the Kingdom.

Many in the sector have pointed to the gaming industry in Cambodia as one of the main reasons that both investors and tourists from China have been coming to the country in increasing numbers over the past few years.

Indeed, Sihanoukville in the south and Poipet, on the border with Thailand, seem to be the focal points of this growth. Both cities have a well-established casino industry.

Everything was business as usual until the middle of last month. That’s when Prime Minister HE issued a directive that halted the issuance of new internet gambling permits. The move, which was trumpeted as a bid to eliminate online extortion associated with online gambling venues, also means that existed licences will not be renewed.

Local sources are reporting that many gaming venues have already shut their doors for good and thousands of Chinese expats have left Sihanoukville.

My ears on the ground say that a few smaller casinos have closed otherwise business as usual.

You mean ‘U turn’?
Yes. I think there’s an element of ‘smoke and bullshit’ about all of this.

like your unsubstantiated claims of dumped cars?
you seem to apply a double standard that gives you a free pass while doubting published reports.

it is very obvious that the government is working together with PRC police to clean up this mess.

what is "renig" POTR?
do you mean renege?
