Travel Ban - Stuck in wrong Province

Post by ZZZ »

Hey, I live in Phnom Penh but was in Siem Reap when the travel ban was announced, by the time I was informed it was already too late to get out of here. I had enough money to sit it out and wait until the original date of 20th April, however, that date is clearly going to pushed back further and further. My house is in PP my money is in PP and Im paying by the day in Siem Reap for bed and someone else to cook my food. I have no bank account, Im literally screwed.. Can anyone advise me on who I can appeal to, in the the hopes of getting permission to return to PP. Thanks.

Thanks, that gives me a little bit of hope, I still have no idea how to get in touch nor how I can arrange transport if I somehow get permission, but it gives me some hope, thank you.
