The cambodian version is quite popular among cambodians. Called ouk. Its not a bad game and if you are interested in chess I would recommend learning it and playing some of the tuktuk drivers you seeing playing it. You will have a hard time beating them. I guess there are clubs and so on where more middle class people play who might be interested in buying boards. The pieces are slightly different in design but a standard setup works fine.
