Cambodian casinos going online with live-streamed gambling

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

From the Phnom Penh Post:

A surge in new casino licences this year is a sign of an aggressive push into the poorly regulated field of online gaming, particularly in Sihanoukville, where Chinese investors are rumoured to be investing in properties to convert into online live-dealer casino operations.

Cambodia has built its gaming industry by positioning itself as a destination for Asian gamblers looking to circumvent gambling restrictions in their home countries. Most of its casinos are small-scale affairs positioned near the Kingdom’s border crossings attracting Thai and Vietnamese gamblers prohibited from gambling on their own soil.
