Après six provinces et six verres de Sora, il fallait redescendre. Pas dans la chambre : au rez-de-chaussée de Kampong Dewa, où le Khayangan Beach Club, que tout le monde ici appelle le KBC, ouvre chaque soir jusqu'à une heure du matin, deux le week-end. Quatrième épisode de notre série : le samedi soir, sous la pluie, entre une scène LED, des chemises à fleurs et une grande roue allumée au loin.

La French Tech Phnom Penh is launching “Rendez-Vous Tech”, a new initiative designed to create more opportunities for entrepreneurs, startups, companies and technology professionals to meet, exchange ideas and build concrete connections within Cambodia’s fast-growing digital ecosystem.

Ten floors above the pool, Angkasa is the Arjuna Solitaire's panoramic restaurant. It is also the home of Sora, a Khmer rice wine the hotel makes itself and has placed at the centre of its new menu, the "Heritage Journey of Sora": six provinces, six dishes, six glasses. Third episode of our series: Saturday evening, from Siem Reap to Kompong Som without leaving the table.

Born in Virginia to a Cambodian mother and settled in Hawaii, Darny Chau strings together small parts on the biggest shoots in the Pacific. Her face has passed through Magnum, Hawaii Five-0 and, last year, Disney's Lilo & Stitch. A portrait of one of the screen's background figures.

Two months before the 20th Francophonie Summit and a state visit by Emmanuel Macron, Paris and Phnom Penh are picking up the pace. Trade rose 17.5% in 2025 and three infrastructure projects were selected in July. France's weight in the kingdom nonetheless remains small next to China's.

At the gates of Kampong Dewa, on the road to Otres, a twenty-five-storey tower has redrawn the Sihanoukville skyline. Cambodge Mag spent a late-August weekend there under a monsoon sky. This is the first of five episodes: the arrival, a lobby watched over by a legendary archer, a room that opens onto the hills and, at two o'clock, a tea that takes the high ground.

In Angoulême with four of his films, as part of the Cambodian selection at the Francophone Film Festival, director Rithy Panh spoke to TV5MONDE about his career, his lifelong work on memory, and his view — both fascinated and wary — of artificial intelligence.

Cambodia took centre stage in Angoulême from 24 to 29 August, as the Francophone Film Festival dedicated its 19th edition to the Kingdom.

In its 28 August 2026 edition, Le Figaro Magazine publishes an in-depth field investigation into the border conflict between Thailand and Cambodia, written and photographed by journalist Jean-Luc Moreau Deleris. A rare long-form treatment from a mainstream title, bringing renewed attention to a crisis too often overshadowed by Western headlines.

In Phnom Penh, the Shanty Town Spirit Association is launching 'The Power of One Dollar', a monthly one-dollar donation campaign designed to support Cambodia's most vulnerable families, day after day.

For decades, it was one of Phnom Penh's most recognisable sights: the cyclo. Now on the brink of disappearing, this iconic mode of transport may get a second life thanks to a young Franco-Cambodian association, e-Cyclo Cambodia, which is betting on electrification to preserve the heritage while easing the burden on its last remaining drivers.

Since joining Ucare Pharmacy, Sophie has moved from community pharmacy practice into training, digital communication and network development, helping build the professional development backbone of Cambodia's leading pharmacy chain.

Raised within the walls of Angkor Wat, in the pagoda where her grandfather was Grand Abbot, Akim Ly grew up amid prayer, chores and resourcefulness. After thirteen years building businesses in Vietnam, she returned to Siem Reap to found Adventures Cambodia, a private tour company owned and run by women. A childhood at Angkor, a restaurant opened at sixteen, a commitment to preserving temples and supporting remote schools: a portrait of a woman for whom Cambodian hospitality i

Every spring, all across Cambodia, high school seniors and young graduates open an account on the Études en France platform, fill in their choices, gather their bank statements, and wait — sometimes for months — for an answer that will decide their university year. Yet in Campus France's official statistics, Cambodia doesn't even appear among the top 25 countries of origin for international students in France

Every evening, between the Tonlé Sap and the Mekong, an entire street vanishes behind its stalls. Neither quite a market nor quite a fairground, the riverside Walking Street has become Phnom Penh's liveliest stage — a concentrated version of the city that only reveals itself once the heat has broken.

Since we published our first article on this portrait, a controversy has erupted online: several Thai commenters have disputed our conclusions, claiming the woman in the photograph was in fact Siamese, not Khmer. After a fresh review of every available source — the museum's own archive, genealogical research, an independent encyclopedia entry, and costume scholarship — the conclusion holds: this claim simply isn't supportable.

No need to hit the road to switch off. For one weekend, we headed to Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra, a benchmark for luxury in the capital, for a family-style guest experience: spectacular décor, a cocoon of a room, an open-air pool, Do Forni pizzas and breakfast with a view. All just minutes from home.

Kem Monovithya, daughter of former opposition leader Kem Sokha, has been appointed special envoy to Prime Minister Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet with ministerial rank, following a royal decree signed by King Norodom Sihamoni on August 17 — a striking gesture toward Cambodia's best-known opposition family after nearly a decade of confrontation.

My name is Chenda. For ten years now, my life has largely revolved around four grey shapes living in the forests of Ratanakiri province. It isn't a job I do. It's an attachment that has, over time, shaped who I am.

A grave face, a carefully knotted sampot, a gaze that doesn't flinch from the lens. For a century and a half, this portrait taken around 1866-1870 by French photographer Émile Gsell has circulated through books, auction houses and online forums — where it has been mistaken, in turn, for a Siamese lady-in-waiting, a Vietnamese woman, or the anonymous concubine of a colonial officer. She was none of those things.
