Oh, I see that this was addressed in "Cambodian Culture" topic. It looks like government workers get the day off. Do businesses also close? From the sounds outside my apartment, I gather that building construction doesn't stop!

Today is a national holiday to celebrate the King's birthday. I'm curious as to how it is celebrated and whether there will be a lot of closings.
It was yesterday, the 14th, today's business as usual.

Are you certain? "PublicHolidays.Asia...." indicates that the actual birthday was the 14th but the 15th is a public holiday in celebration.
