Most visits to Cambodia are trouble-free, however public order is fragile. Travellers should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners. The greatest risks to travellers are from road traffic accidents, armed robbery after dark, landmines and unexploded ordnance in rural areas.
Travellers should be aware of the risk of robbery and other crime (including sexual offences) in Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville and Siem Reap, particularly after dark, and take sensible precautions. Travellers should be on their guard against pickpockets and bag snatchers, especially when travelling around the cities.
Outbreaks of avian influenza (bird flu) in Cambodia have resulted in a small number of human fatalities. As a precaution, travellers should avoid live animal markets, poultry farms and other places where they may come into close contact with domestic, caged or wild birds; and ensure poultry and egg dishes are thoroughly cooked.
