Temple visits slow after clash
Tourists are still wary about travelling to Preah Vihear temple following border clashes in the area earlier this year, according to provincial officials. Visitor numbers had declined 15.5 per cent during the first seven months compared year on year, but had slowly begun rising in July, provincial Tourism Department director Kong Vibol said yesterday. Cambodia’s travel agents would hold meetings with their Thai counterparts in Preah Sihanouk province tomorrow, aiming to improve ties between the two nations’ tourism sectors, Cambodian Association of Travel Agents president Ang Kim Eang said.
