clarification needed-atms in Siem Reap
I haven't paid much attention to this yet but just got my "warning" from the State Dept. about Cambodia after I registered for upcoming trip. They said that you can't use an ATM in Cambodia without having a local bank account. Is this true? I planned on bringing some small US dollars but assumed I could use an ATM in Siem Reap while I was there. Clarification anyone? Thanks (ps, I will only be in Siem Reap, no other location in Cambodia)

We too have been giving the same advice as the State Dept. on our website and until fairly recently it was correct but KimJapan is absolutely right---this info is out of date.
However, one little rider, Not all machines will accept all cards, so
1.Try to take more than one card.
2.If you have no luck at one machine,try another,you will probably find one that is OK.
