There is an appealing history to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just across the border from next door Thailand, in which casino betting is not permitted. Eight gambling halls are situated in a relatively small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia casinos is in an excellent location, a 3 to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest gambling locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai laborers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing income accrued from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million, and there are a number of controls requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is assumed to be mainly Thai; still, funding sources are vague. The borders are officially open from 09:00 to 17:00, and even though visas are supposedly necessary to pass, there are methods around this, as is correct of many borders.
