The Best of Cambodia & Laos

INTERNET
In Cambodia, where you find tourists you
find Internet cafes. Standards vary. Phnom
Penh has a few near the riverfront that
would not be out of place in London.
Sihanoukville wins the prize for the worst
of the worst—computers here are so riddled
with viruses that they are virtually
unusable. In smaller towns you might
hunt harder to finder a cybervenue but
there will generally be a shop or a restaurant
with a couple of computers set up at
the back that you can use. Rates vary
between 50¢ to $1 a minute. Wi-Fi, usually
free, is becoming increasingly common
in hotels and restaurants. It is not
always properly set up, but in Phnom
Penh, Siem Reap, Battambang, Kampot,
and Sihanoukville it is not hard to find a
place to get connected.
