geovalin Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 More than 100 foreign nationals died in Cambodia last year, an immigration department official said this week. So Khorn Panharith, deputy director of the immigration department, said on Wednesday that 119 foreigners died in Cambodia last year, including 12 women. “There were six causes for the total number of deaths,” he said. “About 81 died from illnesses, 11 from traffic accidents, 13 from suicide, one from murder, seven from drowning, and six unexplained deaths.” Mr Panharith added that 86 foreigners were also injured, 18 of them women. They got injured during robberies, traffic accidents and acts of violence. “The number of dead and injured foreigners increased in 2017 compared to 2016,” he noted. read more http://www.khmertimeskh.com/50101659/deaths-foreigners-increase/ -- © Copyright Khmer Times 12/01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantomfiddler Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Alas this rise will be a mathematical certainty, since ridiculous new laws in Thailand, usually only applied to farangs, will be causing more expats to relocate to Cambodia.

The "tightening" is for so-called "business visas" which are frequently used to stay for years without actually having a business. Cambodia now has a designated retirement visa (the ER class visa) which is very easy to get if you qualify. They are just making sure that retirees have the correct visa without "stretching" the rules. Like the Thai retirement visa, the new Cambodian visa does not allow working while retired. In order to work there is another visa class for that. All the info is at the Cambodian Immigration website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so then I can understand your problem. If not then there no reason why you shouldn't get a retirement visa if you qualify. There are plenty of people being issued retirement visas everyday.
