Special tourism policy

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.

You can easily spend a lot more than that here. For example we had a visitor from HQ visiting last week. She stayed in a 5 star and her chauffeured LWB sedan was $500 a day.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

$300 a day is not a lot if you want to liver it up. Amansara goes for what, 2K a night? A nice dinner at Damnak a couple of hundred?

Guys i think we ALL agree it would be quite easy to drop a grand or even 2,as a tourists or anyone for a few days and nights
but realistically, as a tourist & Family, to drop $30,000 in 3 months?
