Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet has affirmed the continuation of the existing revenue-sharing model for tour boat operators at the Tonle Sap lake’s Chong Khneas port. The decision follows a recent family visit by the Prime Minister to the Siem Reap province community. Currently, revenue generated from Tonle Sap tour tickets is divided between the local association and Angkor Enterprise. This arrangement will remain unchanged, ensuring the community maintains its current financial benefits from tourism. The move aims to support local livelihoods dependent on the tourism sector. This decision provides stability for boat operators and reinforces the government’s commitment to equitable tourism revenue distribution. Further details regarding the specific percentage split were not disclosed.
