Trained in the demanding disciplines of Pali, Sanskrit and Tibetan, Suzanne Karpelès (1890-1968) spent most of her life rescuing, cataloguing and reviving Khmer manuscripts. First curator of the Royal Library of Phnom Penh in 1925 and founder of the Buddhist Institute five years later, she trained two future Supreme Patriarchs of Cambodia and gave the country an intellectual tool that, without her ever intending it, would become one of the quiet cradles of national awakening.

Cambodia and the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF) signed a five-year action plan on 5 August 2026 aimed at strengthening French language education in the Kingdom and the training of the teachers who deliver it.

Actress, writer and producer based in Toronto, Chantria Tram has spent some fifteen years building a body of work that explores, with humour and vulnerability, what it means to grow up between two cultures.

From 6 to 30 August 2026, The Gallerist on Street 240 in Phnom Penh is hosting Neighbour, a solo exhibition by Cambodian painter Thun Dina.

In the Phnom Penh of Cambodia's musical golden age, Meas Samon stood out in a register all his own: comic, satirical song. A notable figure on the Khmer rock and psychedelic scene of the late 1960s and early 1970s, he was one of the few artists of his generation to make audiences laugh while slipping in a genuine critical eye on Cambodian society. His career, like that of so many musicians of the era, would be brutally cut short by the Khmer Rouge.
