@Village287 I am sorry that you have problems with your eyes as you describe. I remember 40 years ago Fred Hollows was doing cataract operations for $20. But your operation is likely more involved I guess.The Cambodian likely sees you as a rich ... Read More

Online Gambling by Kingsley88

Hey guys, do you know its legal gambling online in Cambodia? I heard its illegal in Phnom Penh only.

Mr4D

I once played poker on Pokerstars for small money and had a good time, losing maybe $100 per year on the micro stakes. Then the Liberal government banned people playing on Pokerstars. The bastards did nothing about me losing maybe $1000 per night on ... Read More

I think the poker sites are legal in Cambodia and there would be nothing wrong with playing on Pokerstars.But yes, online casinos are known to cheat. You can’t prove anything either, it’s all coded in the software.Use real casinos where ... Read More

Further to that, Poipet has very cheap casinos where you can get a free room and meal vouchers for as little as $600 turnover (on commission baccarat too which has a house edge of around 1.25%).For that turnover in Australia I got free water and had ... Read More

Mr4D

I'm currently in Poipet nearing the end of a 12 month retirement EOS. To get a 12 month extension, the casino that I play at here has quoted me $400. Has the cost of visas gone up, or is the casino just adding a big fee? To get the extension ... Read More

Mr4D

You forgot to mention AUS,NZ. I bought 2 or 3 adapters here in PP at 50c each. This actually makes a mockery of an adapter I bought 15 years ago in Eastern Europe and kept for when I might go traveling again. It works here but is hugely inferior ... Read More

6 months in Cambodia

You'll likely pay US$300 to US$400 per month for an apartment in PP. For that price you get a/c, kitchen, tv, bathroom; things a westerner would expect. I've got a balcony too. You may have to pay extra for electricity, and an a/c can ... Read More

My pension comes from an Australian superannuation fund and I get taxed in Australia (very favourably because I am of retirement age, but nonetheless I am considered to be taxed there). There is no way I would pay an additional tax in Cambodia. Read More
