geovalin Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Tens of thousands of Chinese nationals are reportedly leaving the Kingdom following a government ban on online gambling intended to reduce the number of crimes committed by foreigners. On August 18, Prime Minister Hun Sen issued a directive banning all online and arcade gambling in the Kingdom in a bid to safeguard security and public order. Mr Hun Sen noted that some licensed online gambling operations rigged their games and threatened those who are not able to repay their gambling debt. “Some foreigners have used this form of gambling to cheat victims inside and outside the country,” Mr Hun Sen said in the directive. “The Royal Government has decided to stop issuing licenses for such operations within and from outside the Kingdom with immediate effect.” Brigadier General Ath Bony, deputy director of the General Administrative Department at the General Department of Immigration, yesterday said more Chinese nationals are leaving in comparison to arriving since the ban was enforced last month. From August 18 until September 7, there were about 140,000 departures of Chinese nationals recorded. Meanwhile, 130,000 Chinese national arrivals were recorded in the same period. read more https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50641757/gambling-ban-driving-chinese-nationals-away/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damrongsak Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Tens of thousands of Chinese nationals ... gambling, or gaming people ... that's a road to success and happy households. Seriously, if a few percent of them are crooks, relative to the mass of visitors, they can easily overwhelm the Cambodian system. Armageddon!

Puchaiyank Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 banning all online and arcade gambling in the Kingdom in a bid to safeguard security and public order.

HarrySeaman Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Lots of the on-line gambling sites were run out of the back rooms of the casinos. Win-win for the casinos. Win money from the Chinese who travel to Sihanoukville to gamble and from those who stay at home and gamble on-line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
