PHNOM PENH (Xinhua): Tourism businesses in Cambodia have gradually reopened after the Covid-19 situation in the kingdom has eased, Tourism Ministry's secretary of state Tith Chantha said on Thursday (Sept 3).

Some 3,135 tourism establishments such as hotels, guesthouses, restaurants, massage-spa parlours, karaoke clubs, nightclubs, beer gardens, and tour and travel operators had been either closed or suspended between March and July due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, affecting over 110,000 workers.
