Tourist police
Does anyone know where the tourist police stations are located, or how tourists can get in touch with them? I called the number on the Ministry of the Interior page and no one answers (but maybe it's too late now?)
LTO reports that the number he has goes to an office in Toul Kork where no one speaks English. I was under the impression there were tourist police in town that speak English, or is that only in Siem Reap?

Don't know how up to date that is. From here http://www.canbypublications.com/phnompenh/ppemerg.htm
That's the number I called couple months ago. Spoke English...
Yeah, u know u're in an f'ed up country when the tourist police don't speak English...giblet wrote:We tried them yesterday and no one spoke English and their office is in Toul Kork. It's mysterious that there's no obvious way for a tourist to actually contact the tourist police.

And people actually refer to those people as "English teachers."Clutchen Menuts wrote:and English teachers write like 5 year-olds
Heaven help us.
The tourist police seem to be wising up and extracting fees from tourists like the regular police.
It is certainly going that way in snookyville.

What would anyone want the tourist police for anyway? Surely there are more effective police forces around if you need anything done?

Who do you suggest tourists call when they've been mugged and need a police report for their travel insurance claims? Seriously, is there a better option than the tourist police?Lucky Lucan wrote:What would anyone want the tourist police for anyway?

They could find a translator and go to the Sangkat police, you can see their stations around. The tourist police are listed in the Yellow Pages as: Tourist Police Department
No. 275, Preah Norodom,
12302, Phnom Penh
Tel 023 726 158
There's another number listed as (097) 778 0002

That address is the Ministry of the Interior, but when I tried the 023 726 158 number on Friday and no one answered. I don't think there are a lot of good options for tourists, unfortunately.
