for about 4 hours from 8:00 pm to 12:00 pm.


So, it's either 4 hours from 8pm to 12.00am, or it's 16 hours to the following 12pm.

I supposed this give them some leeway to cock up the job.

[8:00 pm to 12:00 pm.]
[12pm is midday.]

Do people who write things like this, not know what the 'p' in 'pm' means?

No. It's from KT. https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50869792/w ... hnom-penh/

That's why it's much clearer if they write midday/noon or midnight.

Why is beer cheaper than water in PP?

The way I look at it, it makes sense that 12:00:01pm is preceded by 12:00:00pm. Even one millionth of that first second is pm.
