via Khmer Times, 05 August 2022: It would be great if they do this in Thailand, where they have a dual pricing policy that is sometimes prone to abuse.
Free entry to Angkor Archaeological Park is on the table for foreigners who have lived and worked in Cambodia for two years or more, the government announced on Wednesday.
Prime Minister Hun Sen decided to allow free entry for long-term foreign residents as it will boost domestic tourism and in turn encourage international tourists to visit the world-famous temple.
Normally, foreigners visiting the Park are hit with a hefty entrance fee of $37 for one day, $62 for three days and $72 for seven days.
