Is this a good time to go to Cambodia?

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.

I've heard that trucks are going "up to the crab market from the white horse daily and lots of dust." That's where i usually stay, so i guess this isn't going to work. When do you think this will end?

trucks run from before 7 am till night, all day...every day. one side of the highway is only for trucks and is fucked, yet still some trucks use the other side as well
They turn off about 300 meters before the roundabout to the crab market>
when will it end?
when the either finish or run out of $$ :-)

Not mandatory anymore, but highly advisable. If you dont have it be prepared to spit serious money for hospital if you test positive and get sick.

I'm thinking about going to Kep now. A couple of questions. Are there even more tourists coming from PP nowadays? I have seen this phenomena in many places in Asia since covid.
What about inflation? Will the same guesthouse be $15 USD or have they lower their prices because of the dollar jump?
