Facts & Stats

Cambodia is one of the world’s few constitutional monarchies (with 1900 years of verifiable history). This jewel of South East Asia has a rich and tumultuous history and Cambodians are known for their friendliness, kindness, and patience – traits which are synonymous with the country’s dominant Buddhism religion.

The country is famous for the Angkor Wat temple complex which draws around 2.6 million tourists annually as well as the mystical Mekong River Delta. Cambodia also boasts a patchwork of pristine rainforest dotted with a diverse range of over 8000 plant species.

Cambodians tend to value punctuality and may be frustrated by lateness. Often seniority is held in very high regard and those with the most experience in an organization tend to lead meetings.

Cambodia is a growing economy powered by an $8 billion textile industry that is globally competitive, however more knowledge workers are starting to emerge from the country’s educational institutions.
