Immigration Crackdown

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.

Perhaps, they will stop joking about low cost accommodation and fine but cheap restaurants and study those threads more carefully very soon. In short, the reality of Cambodian expats has come out at least for many of those concerned.
I doubt it's just an extra $100 per year or whatever that worries people. It is more about the uncertainty of future visa regulations and unknown future costs and also the apparent selective enforcement that some posters claim to have witnessed. How can any expat plan and invest in a future in Cambodia with so many uncertainties containing serious consequences, especially if they have local family obligations? You can't understand their concerns?

100% correct. My major worry is whats coming down the pipe. Especially with the ASEAN shoving its massive agenda to unite the region in its own "euro union" form.

More regulations...more rules...more taxes. Plain and simple. If PizzaLover(i doubt you even know what a good pizza is) cannot see this...well my friend...you fill in the blanks.

It seems Pizza Lover hasn't really been following this, and doesn't understand the issue at all. He might be in for a big surprise when he tries the "I can prove a lot of absentee time" line.
No big deal though, tourist visas will still be an option for people like him.
I've got my work permit pretty much sorted out already so it's not really an issue for me anymore, I had to sign my workbook today and now just have to wait for it to get processed by the MOL.
It may turn out to be a storm in a teacup but the signs seem to show otherwise. For example, a guy I work with has had a work permit for a few years. His wife, who is also a foreign national but doesn't work here, has had ministry officials on her case recently and also has to get a work permit.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I believe that what AJ is showing is that the present American government's framework for taking away the civil rights of its citizens and exerting power and control by the elite political (attorney) class in America is being copied by corrupt countries like Cambodia.

People who require a life without uncertainty have made a very curious choice of country to settle in.

Oh well, back to doing nothing about it.
