I went to the branch in Phnom Penh years ago. Basically the same format as described in the article, including the karaoke like rock performance. I recall there was dog on the menu. Otherwise it's your typical dystopian experience. |

Which is interesting, because the Vietnamese installed a government after defeating the Khmer Rouge in 1979. This majorly pissed off China who invaded Vietnam to "punish" them.
But today? It's a playground for Chinese criminal gangs. Kidnapping of foreigners (recently a Thai citizen) who work in local casinos is common. It's mostly Vietnamese, but other nationalities have been snapped up as well.
It's also a hotbed for Chinese running online scams.
Seems quite lawless nowadays despite the development since the war.
