Cambodia sees 35 pct growth of ATMs in 2010

PHNOM PENH, Feb 10, 2011 (Xinhua) -- The number of new automated teller machine (ATM) installed in Cambodia increased by 35 percent last year, according to the latest figure from the National Bank of Cambodia (NBC) on Friday.

It recorded that 130 ATMs had been installed by commercial banks last year, bringing the total number to 501 by the end of 2010, up 35 percent from 371 in a year earlier.

Thai Saphear, head of the governor's office of the central bank, said Friday that the last year's increase of ATMs thanked to the launches of new banks and existing banks expanded their operations.

Last year, three international class banks--CIMB of Malaysia, Bank of China, and Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development--have launched their operations in Cambodia.


Currently, the country has 30 commercial banks; however, the most ATMs have been found installed by large banks only and too many ATMs crowded in urban centers.

So Phonnary, vice president and chief of operation officer of ACLEDA Bank, said Friday that the bank has installed 26 ATMs last year, bringing the total number to 112 at the bank.

"Of the figure, 50 percent is in the city," she said. "Our ATM expansion is to meet the rising demand of our customers." She said that to date, the bank has 1.2 million depositors, represented about 8 percent of the country's population.

Cambodia's banking industry has seen more than a quarter growths of deposits and loans in 2010, according to NBC's annual report released early this week.

Customers' deposits rose by 26 percent to 4.16 billion U.S. dollars and loans increased by 27 percent to 3.18 billion U.S. dollars.

Dear Dr. Hun Sen and Ten Thousands stars Dr. Hun Manet,

Why do you and your relatives give Kos Trol, sea and lands to Vietnam? Why? and Why?

Why do you and all of your relatives involve a lot of murder cases in Cambodia? Why? Why?

Why do you murder Cambodian K5, 1997 events and so on and so on with lost count? Why?

If you are so good why do you and your families murder Cambodians? Why? And Why?

If you are so good, why do above 90% Cambodians are so poor but you and your relatives are billionaires and millionaires? Why? Why?

Why do you try to kill people from telling the true? Why? Why?

What is the difference from Khmer Rough and you, Sir?

If you are so good why do you block KI from Cambodians?

If you are so good, why do you steal all Cambodian life such as well being, health, cut down Cambodians life expectancy as well? But you and your small group are eat well, sleep well, exercise well, have oversea doctors and best medical treatment from high class private doctors from oversea. Most Cambodians that have no money, your healthcare system left Cambodians patients to die in front of your hospital. Why? Why?

If you are so good why more than 6 millions Vietnamese are living permanently in Cambodia, right now? Why, Dr. Hen Sen? And Why

Everywhere, I walk in Cambodia I see Vietnamese speak Vietnamese every where, why? Why?

Don't you and your families scare of hell for eternity?

When you die can you bring all of your power and money with you?

PS

If Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet remove the tablet it is show they are extremely coward and his star are just joy stars given by his daddy not by patriotism. Dr. Hun Manet is very coward as his daddy they only aim to kill innocent Cambodians that all. Dr. Hun SEn and Dr. ten stars Hun Manet are very great at bullying Cambodians and killing Cambodians but cowardly toward Thai and Viet.

CPP are not just corrupted, CPP are extremely corrupt. They are even sell the country such as Kos Trol, Seas, lands, Cambodian people, Cambodian health and well being, all resources in the Cambodia…with lost count. You name it!

Seriously where is the win win policy of Dr. Hun Sen represent? The country is getting smaller and smaller and shame by Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet and his families, his relatives and friends.

Khmer people need real financial change
,be fair,justice,not
corrupt.
But as the world people have known,Hun
Sen has had a big
corruption.
He is collecting money from his
officials,lower officials,and from
some abroad;and he
is taking money from
many country donations and put in
his own pocket.
Taking Hun Sen out of power is good for
Cambodia.
