Security Since the end of the Pol Pot Regime, Cambodia is now a relatively safe country to travel in (as with any overseas travel, normal travel precautions still apply). Many of the provinces that were once 'off-limits' to foreigners are now safe for travel. MINES & MUNITIONS As with most countries, the Vietnamese Government does not allow the export of any item of historic or cultural significance. Saigon has the best buys for modern goods like CDs and clothing.
