Bars are staying open on our soi.....they are testing the water and seeing what action, if any, the police take.

 

They have set up 'take away' sections to make it look good........bars were packed last night.

You can't rule a country properly when police are corrupt.

It is fascinating to watch.....they serve beer in steel tumblers...why that should 'fool' the police I don't know.

 

10 police suddenly landed last night, bars packed...everywhere busy......I thought this is it...

 

They lined up outside on of the bars, called the manger out.......and............ posed for a photo and went.

"outside fitness and recreation facilities can continue to operate until 9pm" wouldn't that mean pools also?

 For reference, after 2 weeks of restricted access (no lockdowns) we are now able to travel throughout most of Siem Reap, Cambodia, again-yippee!

 

"Siem Reap Provincial Administration this afternoon (1st May) decided to re-open the entry and exit of Sala Kamroeuk, Svay Dangkum and Siem Reap communes and two markets – Phsar Krom market and Wat Athva market with the COVID-19 situation under control"

However still big problems down south in Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville and Kandal Provinces.
