The gaming industry in Cambodia has continued its expansion with the opening of the 32nd casino licensed by the federal government. The Top Diamond casino, a 1,600-square-meter facility, debuted last month in the Phnom Den special economic zone (SEZ), located on the border with Vietnam.

The 200-employee casino, built on land leased by Cambodian development company Doung Chhiv, is located on National Road 2.

Managing Director Hout Chanthou expects to draw clientele from Vietnam and businesses located in the SEZ.

"This location has great potential," he told the Phnom Penh Post. "I hope that businessmen will stop by here to gamble."
