The bus system was developed by JICA ( Japanese International Cooperation Agency), it's not Chinese.

I was on the streets of the city an hour ago. Anyway fair enough, but those are relatively new - the system was a Japanese initiative.

The system and its implementation is, but the recent additional gold-coloured buses are Chinese. The Japanese are sending over even more buses soon in an attempt to out-do the Chinese.

in laos they got https://lao.busnavi.asia/
realtime tracking of vientiane buses. know for sure it is a japan initiative, but not certain it is JICA, but most likely is
anyhow perhaps they could be persuaded to do a similar site for phnom penh?

ps: i dont own a device that currently plays google or iphone apps.

i must look like a factory worker because they have let me on and off more than once. and i didnt get on or off at anything that resembles a factory. 1500 reil (but i tipped them, glad to have them around) put the money in the perspex container near the driver when you get on. cant see that they give change.
difficult to determine where or if they will stop where you are flagging them. actual bus stops are a long walk between. in my limited experience, they are more likely to open the door when stopped at traffic light or in traffic jam.
