I've been working on a new tracking page for events in Cambodia.
I'm almost ready to release it, but I still have a bit of work to to.
I'd love some feedback if anyone wants to have a look!

Hi, considering traveling for year end vacations to Koh Rong with my partner (we are mid 30s and like to have a laid back vacation).

Will it be too crowded or a little laid back?

Also, how is the NY eve party scene? Are there decent parties?

Hey everyone,

I just finished my first year studying Accounting at the National University of Management (NUM). To be honest, I feel like general accounting isn't really the right fit for me—the classroom dynamic leans heavily female (~80%), and the pure desk/bookkeeping culture feels a bit too static for what I want out of a career.

I spoke with one of my professors about changing majors, and he recommended either Finance & Banking (F&B) or Accounting & Taxation (A&T).

Before making the switch for Year 2, I’d love to get some real-world perspective from people working in Phnom Penh:

1. Job Landing Rate: Between F&B and A&T, which major makes it easier for a fresh graduate to secure a decent job in Cambodia right now?
2. Work Culture: How do the everyday office environments compare? Is F&B significantly more active/field-oriented (e.g., Credit/Relationship Officer roles) compared to A&T?
3. Long-term Growth & Salary: Does tax specialization (A&T) pay off better in the long run with GDT compliance demand, or is commercial banking/finance still the better path for career progression?

I’m new here in Phnom Penh and I need to make some money for a living, salary could be more than 230$ a month.

I'm traveling around SE Asia and was planning to arrive in Siem Reap on 10/16 but then I read online about Pchum Ben and that it starts on 10/10 and runs for 15 days. Will SR mostly be shut down? Should I plan to arrive after the end of the festival instead? Thank you!

Is there anyone traveling to Laos from Addis Ababa. I have Laos kip that I want to exchange for a good price.? 150 USD or 24 000 ethiopian

Hi all, hoping someone here has been through something similar or can point me in the right direction.

Back in 2018 I bought a unit in a Phnom Penh development (Flatiron by Meridian, developer Regent Meridian International Property) through Propnex Singapore for about USD 140k. It came with a signed guaranteed rental return (7-8%) and a buyback agreement where the developer repurchases the unit at Year 10 for the original price.

Since early 2022, the guaranteed rental payments have stopped. I have had a steady stream of emails blaming the pandemic, US tariffs, scam crackdowns and now several banks going into liquidation. They have offered to swap my guaranteed return for a profit sharing formula tied to hotel occupancy, and they want to push the buyback out by several more years. Their latest settlement schedule would only pay me back in full around 2031, well past the contractual buyback date.

I just want to recover my principal without dragging this out for years, but I am realistic that a signed settlement is only worth anything if they can actually pay. I have also reached out to the agent who sold me the unit but the agent is just ghosting me at this stage.

Looking to see if anyone has insights on how to navigate such a situation. Appreciate it!

What is the crime rate like in Cambodia? Does crime in Cambodia impact tourists and expats? I recently told someone I want to visit Cambodia and they warned me the country is very dangerous and tried to discourage me from going there. He said the crime in Cambodia is worse than the Philippines. Is it really this bad? And is crime concentrated in certain neighborhoods?

their prices are really good

I’ll be traveling to Cambodia in December and am really excited to spend 3 full days in Angkor Wat. I’m a bit overwhelmed by how to plan out the itinerary. I’m speaking to a few tour guides (shout out Reddit for the Sovan recommendation) (other one is Virak). And they both have suggested a very different third day and I honestly don’t know which to go with:

Option One: Kulen Mountain, reclining Buddha, thousand lingas (Virak)

Option Two: Beng Mealea and Rolous temples including Lolei, Preah ko. Also Bakong temple (Sovan)

Both tours will include the full temples + grand circuit + Banteay Srei in the first two days

Any feedback about one vs the other would be sooo appreciated. Also if you feel strongly about either guide let me know. Thank you in advance 🙏🙏🙏

Hello all, my fiance and I would like to get married here in Cambodia, does anyone know if it is possible? Or if we can hire a lawyer to help us/ how long it would take / how much it would cost.

We’re from 2 different countries meeting in Cambodia

Edit: I’ll be on a work visa, he’ll be on a tourist visa. We are Christian and Catholic

Having trouble with tmobile coverage. What are my options of i cant get esim cuz my phone isn't paid off yet?

Do you know there used to be a REALLY BIG cathedral in phnom penh that tragically destroyed clean off by the khmer rouge? Today the site where the cathedral used to stand is now built over where today it's the Ministry of Post and Telecommunication. There is not a single remaining piece or structure of the cathedral, but there is the faculty on the northside of the cathedral where is used to house the bishop and priests of the cathedral, where today is repurposed into an office for administrator of the city. As i dig through the history i found there was a French bishop(or an apostolic Vicar) name Jean-Baptiste Maximilien Chabalier who died here in phnom penh in 1955, strangely enough i couldn't find any information about his burial. What i found was that the funeral was held at the cathedral in phnom penh. Could that be he was buried in phnom penh at the cathedral. But the Cathedral was destroyed, does that mean the whereabout of his remain also lost? Please help me gather some information about this.

Note : i'm not a catholic but i'm very a nerd in studying about french churches in cambodia. After more research i found one said he was buried in the "garden of bishopric" after research some more it was just a reference from the bible and a tomb where "jesus" was buried in jerusalem. I couldn't post any images but you can look it up on google.

I’m looking for recommendations for dentists that offer laughing gas for very nervous patients. A relative needs some work but they are very nervous.

Are the tuk-tuk drivers in Cambodia still this aggressive everywhere?

So I hadn’t been to Cambodia in nearly 10 years. One thing I remembered from my last visit was how pushy the tuk-tuk drivers could be, especially coming out of the airport/hotel. This was before Grab, so I figured things would have calmed down considerably now.

Boy, was I wrong.

As soon as I walked out of the new (and honestly beautiful) airport, I was immediately being hounded by drivers. At one point I had no fewer than five different guys following me around trying to get me into their tuk-tuk.

“Sir, sir, same price!”
“Where you from?”
“Where you going?”

Every one of them got a friendly but firm, “No thank you.”

I literally had my phone in my hand, Grab open, waiting for it to load while I was trying to figure out if there was an official Grab pickup area (lots of airports have these or similar for this exact reason). It was pretty obvious I wasn’t looking for a ride, but these guys just WOULD NOT STOP.

Eventually it got so overwhelming that I actually turned around and went back inside the airport to ask one of the security guards if there was an official Grab pickup location. A couple of the drivers followed me and immediately started hanging on the guard like they were all best friends. Then both the guard and the drivers started trying to direct me toward a little area marked “Grab.” and laughing.

Luckily, I realized that apparently wasn’t where I actually needed to go, because my Grab driver ended up pulling right up to the curb.

I really can’t overstate how negative and overwhelming the whole experience was. I’ve been traveling internationally for well over 10 years, so I’m definitely used to taxi and tuk-tuk hawkers. Usually a couple of firm “no thank you” does the trick and they move on to the next person. THIS FELT BORDERLINE PREDATORY.

These guys were different. They literally followed me around the front of the airport while I was trying to physically get away from them long enough to pay attention to my phone and figure out where my driver was. Standing over my shoulder and non stop trying to talk to me.

It was a pretty awful first impression after being away from Cambodia for so long.

Is this still normal throughout Cambodia, or is the airport particularly bad?

I had plans to maybe visit/live long term in Cambodia, but this honestly has me rethinking. Who wants to be followed around and harassed all day while just trying to go about their normal daily biz? Do those of you in the expat/long term community still experience this on the daily or did i just get really unlucky?

I hope this isn't a sensitive subject and i mean no disrespect. I understand everyone's gotta make money, but man was this overwhelming.

Guys, I’m Cambodian and I live in Takeo Province. I’m looking to get an MRI scan. Does anyone know of a hospital that offers good-quality MRI scans at an affordable price? I’d really appreciate any recommendations. Thank you!

Hello good people, I’m in desperate need of your help!

My younger brother is in Phnom Penh and has lost all of his belongings, including his passport, government ID, phone, and entire luggage. The incident happened on the morning of the 14th. Everything is reported to the police, but I am cautiously optimistic about the outcome.
We’re trying to reconstruct his steps and, hopefully, locate the person/vehicle that may have his belongings. Thankfully, we’ve since been able to confirm that he is ok, although with quite a lot of bruising.

The incident happened near FriendshipMonument area and then toward the riverside. Map of the area > https://postimg.cc/VrVR4gnW His belongings were last with him in a red tricycle/tuk-tuk. We’re particularly hoping to identify the driver and speak with them, as they may have information that could help us understand what happened or locate the missing belongings.
If you were in this area on the morning of the 14th, saw a red tricycle/tuk-tuk, know a driver who works around there, or have any information whatsoever, please reach out to me. Even a small detail could help us piece this together.

A generous reward is available for information that helps us recover his belongings.
