The drone is a toy sold in Mi shops. Looks like bad timing, you don’t want to drone around the 9th November I guess.

Drones are allowed in Cambodia, and there are no other rules for general use. However, in some areas, there are significant restrictions on the use of multicopters. In the capital, Phnom Penh, you need a special permit for the ascent of a drone as at Angkor Park, or around any historic temples.
