The Foreign Affairs Ministry has noted a substantial rise in the number of Indonesian citizens participating in Cambodia’s online gambling sector.
Judha Nugraha, Director of Indonesian Citizen Protection and Legal Aid at the ministry, shared data from the Indonesian Embassy in Phnom Penh, revealing around 17,121 actively reporting Indonesian citizens in Cambodia. Contrastingly, Cambodian authorities reported a significantly higher number, stating that 73,724 Indonesian citizens possess residence permits in the country.
“There is a noteworthy difference between Indonesian citizens with legal residence permits in Cambodia and those actively reporting themselves,” Judha said in Jakarta on Tuesday.
