Re: Hungarian Covid Runaway Confirmed Positive
My understanding is that Cambodian nationals do not need the 72 hour Covid declaration or $2000 cash deposit. It applies to foreign nationals. If he is traveling with a Khmer national he could have been exposed from her.

UPDATE
Cambodia News, Siem Reap: The Hungarian man was found at around 9 am on September 26, 2020, after a search operation by authorities and the Siem Reap Provincial Health Department, according to the Ministry of Health in a villa in Svay Dangkum Commune, Siem Reap City, and the medical team took him and his wife (no children and no one else with them) to the Siem Reap Provincial Hospital for treatment.
The information received by the Ministry this morning was that after the Hungarian man left Phnom Penh on September 16, 2020 for Siem Reap, he took a taxi alone, stopped to refuel only once on the road, without meeting or touching anyone outside of this taxi.
Arriving in Siem Reap, he remained at home working as a Doctor of Economics (writing a book). On September 17, 2020, he went out to buy paintings at the establishment Angkor, Siem Reap and then returned to his house. As for his wife, because there is a lot of food in the house, she did not go anywhere, only went to the market only once, but they have taken precautionary measures by wearing a mask when leaving the house.
Ministry of Health confirms that currently the emergency response team of the Department of Health in Siem Reap and the Department of Infectious Diseases of the Ministry of Health, in collaboration with the World Health Organization and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, are continuing to do the necessary work to find the affected people, and the Ministry will continue to provide information to the public of any further developments.
