Cambodia and Thailand quarreled over the casino

Saitaku Resort and Casino has become the source of a bizarre border standoff between Cambodia and Thailand. The controversy started last month, when Veera Somkwamkid argued that the new Saitaku Resort and Casino was located inside a Thai national park.

Whilst all was set to run smoothly, on the night of the casino’s soft opening on 7 April, the Thai authorities banned its own citizens from crossing the border to visit the new resort. This has created a rather big problem for the new casino as no one is able to easily visit it. Approximately 300 VIP guests were allowed to attend, whilst those without invitation were prohibited from making the crossing.
