The Story
Cambodian casinos are in deep waters yet again. As the ban on online operations looks like it might force dozens of brick and mortar casinos to shut down, NagaWorld, the only casino allowed to operate in Phnom Penh, is now seeing thousands of its employees go on strike over pay and working conditions. According to a report, about 3, 000 employees of the Hong Kong-listed casino staged a massive protest on January 9, demanding increase in pay and the reinstatement of union president Chhim Sithar, who was fired in September 2019 for distributing t-shirts to employees that demanded living wages. This comes as 91 casinos in the country have had to end their online operations. As the primary source of revenue for many of these operations, losing online play will likely force many of them to cease operations entirely.
