Expat Demographics

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Wasn't it 160 000, with 60 000 work permits granted?

yeah your correct...
More than 100,000 foreigners of about 160,000 working in Cambodia did not have work permits in 2017, according to figures announced during a meeting between the interior and labour ministries yesterday.

Seng Sakada, director general of the Labour Ministry’s general department of labour, said in the meeting that 160,077 foreigners from 93 countries were working in the Kingdom, adding 100,346 of the workers were Chinese nationals.
100k of the 160k are Chinese apparently
HA! SEE! I'm not as fucked as I thought I was!

I believe the French record as colonialists is less than impressive.

haha, I thought about that while I was writing this. I think that the people you meet from other countries while in another country, are different than those same people inside of their respective countries. So, likely the people you meet from other countries in Cambodia are all the weirdo's from other places? :P
