Expats with a Khmer S. O.

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia. Have some questions you want to ask before you move to Cambodia? Ask them here. Our community can also answer any questions you have about how to find a job or what kind of work is available for expats in Cambodia, whether you're looking for info about Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or anywhere else in the Kingdom. You're also welcome to ask about visa and work permit questions as well, as the immigration rules change often, especially since COVID-19. Don't be shy, ask CEO's community anything!

I am forever grateful that we Aussies don't use slang names for currency based on who is pictured on each denomination. Most of us couldn't tell you who's on what note without looking. It also changes periodically.

Mind you, for all I know SQUFfy could have given his MIL an obscurely named 'treatment' of some sort and I wouldn't be any the wiser.
