The new traffic law which will come into effect on 01 September will require for all motorcycle drivers to have a driving license. Nhem Saran, the director of the department of public works at the Phnom Penh municipality said that, right now, his department is letting people know about the traffic law, and it also provides free motorcycle driving lessons. At the end of the information distribution period, motorcycle users must take driving lessons at private driving schools, but that those who learn how to drive by themselves can also take the test, as long as they know the traffic law. Nhem Saran said the test to obtain a motorcycle driving license will take a lot of time because there are more than 470,000 motorcycles in use. The Ministry of Public Works and Transportation has determined that the cost of the driving license is $10. The new law will come into effect in September and fines will be issued at time, however, Nhem Saran said that there was a request made to delay the issuing of fines so that people can be properly educated first. The new traffic law requires that motorcycle drivers have a driving license, whereas this was not the case before.

very stupid!
later on riding a bicycle must have licence in Cambodia,,,,so when will cambodians wake up? and say to the Hunxen and CPP enough is enough!....by the way I really admired the Rowanda people, they fight to their death to defend themselve. one report ask why can't they wait for other nations to help like most undevelop countries?..rawanda people replied " We cannot depend others but ourselve to protect and defend the country"..I think Cambodians should do that too!...eeyore
The cost of the driving license is only $10.00, and when we will be asked to pay more than 10,will will The Ministry of Public Works and Transportation could explain the fee hike for all Cambodians?
This ministry always comes up with excuses to squeeze more money out of poor people. Motorists must pay the official fees and the facilitation fees if they want a speedy service. The traffic police are now grinning in anticipation of imposing more unofficial fines on motorbike users. There is no probation/education period, as far as the traffic police are concerned.
First, the ministry changed the license plates, which they claimed to be conformed to ASEAN standards. It was a lie! They contracted a Chinese company to produce the license plates.
Then, they introduced compulsory vehicle inspection (the contracting company workers just glance over the engines and charge unofficial fees for the approval stickers) resulting in long queues, waste of time and money.
How long do we have to put up with scums like these working in the public service sector?
5:42pm until Hun Xen was 90 years old! or lightning strike him first. Then Cambodia MAY start some thing new.
The best is Volcano blow under Hanoi!
Or Cambodia People power blow on the face of CPP.
2:36PM, I don't know much about Ramada! How they are doing right now after rheir death?
Choy euy why Vietnamese never do that and wait for Cambodian to do the hard work for them all the time!
