Cambodia's Sihanoukville has recently launched a joint cleanup operation targeting online gambling advertisements, dismantling multiple illegal billboards. This move aims to comply with national policies, prevent illegal propaganda from affecting social order, and calls on the public to avoid participation.
Joint Enforcement Action Launched
Law enforcement officers conducted focused inspections on shops, restaurants, and rental properties in the city, removing several billboards suspected of promoting online gambling. The action emphasizes the immediate handling of illegal advertisements to maintain the urban environment.
Policy Background and Ongoing Patrols
This cleanup responds to the national crackdown on online gambling, aiming to protect social security and image. Relevant departments stated that they would strengthen patrols, and any gambling promotions, online or offline, would be legally prosecuted to ensure the consistency of law enforcement.

Local officials remind the public and businesses not to rent out spaces or assist in posting related advertisements to avoid legal violations. The police also warn foreigners in Cambodia to stay away from such gray businesses, or they will face criminal penalties and deportation.
