via Khmer Times, 03 October 2019: The food ban which was previously announced at Angkor Wat is now being enforced by the Apsara Authority.
The Apsara Authority yesterday warned that authorities have started taking action against those who consume food or alcohol at the Angkor Wat moat, Prohm Kel temple and Trapaing Ses pond in defiance of a prohibition which came into effect on Tuesday.
The ban also applies to food vendors who ply their trade in the area, but not those who have been allowed to operate stalls there.
In August, the Apsara Authority issued the prohibition, but allowed a 45-day grace period for vendors and tourists to comply.
