Khmer word for pimp?
Jamie will probably know this. In Thai the slang for pimp is mengda, a mengda is a big ugly insect. Does Khmer have a correct word and a slang word?

Mayborn is only for madames, not pimps, apparently but not clear...
Asked what pimps might be, was told, not sure bong, may be mayborn...

Re: Khmer word for pimp?
Thanks for that. I think Jamie might have nailed it, the expression does sound familiar.
