Cambodia has traditionally only two official gateways for international telephone calls:
- 001: Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications (MPTC) / Telecom Cambodia (T.C.)

I was previously using Project Honey Pot’s http:BL in conjunction with Bad Behaviour WordPress plugin to control access to this blog. My intention was to restrict access from malicious spammers and content scrapers.
Unfortunately it seems that plenty of Cambodian IP addresses are on various blacklists and thus many legitimate users were blocked as well. Continue Reading »

Recently I wrote an article on internet development in Cambodia. When looking at the statistics in that report, it appears as if Cambodia did not have internet connectivity before the year 2001. That is not the case. Continue Reading »
