Tourists and locals in Siem Reap can now enjoy free internet access at key locations, thanks to a new initiative by Cambodia’s Ministry of Post and Telecommunications.

 

The ministry announced on Sunday that public WiFi is now available at major landmarks across the province, including the world-renowned Angkor Archaeological Park, the night market, and other heavily frequented public areas. The move aims to support both residents and the growing number of domestic and international visitors to the historic region.

 

“In recognition of the increasing need for internet access… and in response to positive public feedback, we are pleased to provide free public WiFi,” the ministry shared via its official social media channel.

 

Users can connect to the network by selecting PUBLIC WIFI BY MPTC or by scanning QR codes posted at participating locations. A full map of access points is available on the ministry’s website: https://mptc.gov.kh/public-wifi.

 

The initiative reflects broader efforts to enhance digital connectivity across Cambodia and boost the tourism sector, which continues to recover following the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

While no end date for the service has been announced, the ministry’s tone suggests the programme is part of a longer-term plan to make internet access more inclusive and accessible throughout the country.
