Cambodia is a country in South East Asia
with a population of over 14 million people. The kingdom's capital and
largest city is Phnom Penh. Cambodia is the successor state of the once
powerful Hindu and Buddhist Khmer Empire, which ruled most of the
Indochinese Peninsula between the 11th and 14th centuries.A citizen of
Cambodia is usually identified as "Cambodian" or "Khmer," though the
latter strictly refers to ethnic Khmers. Most Cambodians are Theravada
Buddhists of Khmer extraction, but the country also has a substantial
number of predominantly Muslim Cham, as well as ethnic Chinese,
Vietnamese and small animist hill tribes.
The chaotic yet charismatic
capital of Phnom Penh is a hub of political intrigue, economic vitality
and intellectual debate. All too often overlooked by hit-and-run
tourists ticking off Angkor on a regional tour, the revitalized city of
Siem Reap is finally earning plaudits in its own right thanks to a
gorgeous riverside location, a cultural renaissance, and a dining and
drinking scene to rival the best in the region. And don’t forget the
rest of the country: relax in the sleepy seaside town of Kampot and trek
the nearby Bokor National Park; take an elephant ride in the jungles of
Mondulkiri Province; observe the Mekong dolphins at Kratie or simply
choose a beach near Sihanoukville.
The formal educational structure consists of six years of primary
school, three years of lower secondary school, and three years of upper
secondary school. Higher education is available at eight different
universities throughout the country. Private education exists at all
levels of the
education system.
