Re: Return ticket/ticket out rule changes?
Whenever anyone asks an embassy or government type person about what travel documents are needed, that embassy or government person will almost always give the most conservative and fear-mongering advice possible.
An embassy person won't say "Technically you're supposed to have an onward ticket, but the reality is that Cambodian immigration officers never ask for it unless you're an African or Indian." They're gonna tell you that you need an onward ticket. Especially since some airlines do require it and they don't want to be blamed and have someone write to their local member of parliament or to the ambassador and say "Bob Smith at the embassy told me that Cambodian officials never ask for an onward ticket so I didn't get one and I was denied boarding."
Embassy types will also probably tell you that you absolutely need to bring a passport photo to enter Cambodia and that you have to be vigilant at all times against grenade attacks.

It's the airlines not the immigration people at the airport who bug you about this.
They say they can get fined or required to pay your passage out.
Flew in many times on Bangkok Air and Air Asia, never bugged by the airlines or the immigration people.
But Lufthansa and Singapore got real picky.
I asked the visa clerk in PP and he said yes, onward ticket required.
A travel agent or search engine might provide a work around.

As Multipox said above, it is nearly always the airline imposing these rules at the departure end as they are the one that would have the liability to get you back.
Some countries' immigration do ask you, this is normally where the visa cannot be extended (I was asked in Indonesia as travelling with a Khmer who cannot extend) & asked in Singapore, also because travelling with Khmer.
As someone pointed out earlier, Cambodian visas can be extended so it doesn't make that much sense to require you to have a departing ticket.
