Until very recently a sign like this one would have been unthinkable in Cambodia where credit cards are not very common. Within the last five years or so, there were only one or two high-end hotels that would accept Visa and MasterCard and American Express. And even as a few other establishments began to accept cards, they did so with a 3% to 5% surcharge for their graciousness in allowing you to use your plastic. Today you will see more foreigners using credit cards, but for the most part they seem to be using them to make money withdrawals from their home bank accounts so they can then pay their bills here with cash.
