Change of Her Majesty’s Ambassador to Cambodia in June 2018

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

A few things I noted about the appointment were:

She's seems to have been out of the foreign office service since 2016.

She is currently a language trainer ( teacher) Is that here? Not at BELTEI surely?

They have managed to place somebody with relatively little ambassadorial experience ( 2003 – 2006, Timor Leste ) right before the elections in July.

Seeing as both the US and EU (read UK) have pulled support from the elections, and will; therefore, deem them illegitimate, are the FO expecting there to be any kick-back, or is this all just a coincidence?

British Embassy in Phnom Penh is a joke, only outshone in its absolutely awful service by VFS Global who they outsource all visa applications to.

It says "training" not "trainer" -
2016 – present Full time language training

I think that means she was a student.
You could be next.
