Currency exchange? CAD

Hi

Flying into Phnom Penh next week. Hoping to avoid high atm fees and changing my Canadian money (CAD) to USD just to change it to Riel

All the posts that I found are exclusively about USD and currency exchange posts seem a bit dated

Hoping someone could let me know,

  1. Are alternate currencies easily changed in Phnom Penh?
  2. Where would be the best place to exchange? (Airport or alternate?)
  3. If the airport is best, are the currency exchangers open late? My flight lands at 11pm

Looking to get a painted portrait of my partner for a Christmas gift, does anyone know any talented (and preferably - reasonable) artists in PP that take commissions?

Phnom Penh

I took this as I arrived

I’d read about the city built on Lady Penh’s temple hill, with an epic lore to it…

I immediately loved the color and warmth

So we went out that night, playing pool and eating local food …

but my luck did quickly turn upside down

However — I’ve met so many saint-like, hard working, kind, generous people that made a big impression on me

Phnom Kulen during Bon Om Touk

I'll be in Siem Reap during Bon Om Touk, and wanting to take a day-trip to Phnom Kulen.

We're thinking either the 14th (Thursday) or 16th (Saturday) to go, but want to choose the day that will have least amount of visitors in it.

How busy will the park be during Bon Om Touk, and will one day be less busy than the other or the same?

E-arrival by bus

Hey, my friend and I are going to Cambodia and tried to fill out the e-arrival card, but since we are going by bus from Thailand, we can’t pick a port of entry on the website since they are all airports. Is there another e-arrival form we can fill out, or is it possible to do at the border?

Siem Reap Water Festival Solo

hiii!! So for the upcoming water festival I heard it’s a must to visit Siem Reap, so I’m planning to take a bus from Phnom Penh to go there. But because I don’t really know anyone well enough that goes there too, I wanted to ask if it is safe to travel to Siem Reap alone as a woman?

And if you have any recommendations in siem reap for the water festival? ( accommodation, activities, places,….)

Just arrived in siem reap

Hi guys, maybe it’s just because I’ve just arrived here but I feel completely sketched out to be honest. I’m staying just out of the city. I went out earlier just to have some food after checking in my hotel.

Been in Thailand for two months prior to here and hardly had one sketchy encounter. Firstly all the tuk tuk drivers are really pushy. You say no thanks and they follow you even though you have already said you’re okay.

Walking home this young lad says jump in I’ll take you. I have a bad ankle currently and my walk was about 5 minutes I decided to hop in. After he charged me the equivalent of around £4 which I felt seemed steep especially compared to what you pay in Thailand (I’m not sure that’s the price or he just way over charged me)

Then he started offering me weed and if I wanted a prostitute. I said no thanks, he dropped me at my hotel door and he just gave me a really sketchy vibe. Hopefully I can find my bearings tomorrow and this place isn’t as bad as my first experience has caused me to believe

But I think Thailand is the place for me, here feels like you need to have your whits about you unfortunately

HELP!!! Online Visa application issues

We are going on a cruise in two weeks. The cruise line told us to go online and in advance apply for a tourist visa In Cambodia. They provided the link, which is correct. Sounds easy right? I started with myself and finally was able to complete the process. Then I started the process for my husband. I logged in using his phone so that the new application would be connected to him personally. I completed all the personal profile information and then hit submit. In return, I get a message that says..."Go back and complete all the required fields". There are no fields left blank. Nothing is highlighted to indicate a field problem. Everything is as it should be. I have tried this process over and over again on different computers using different browsers. Same message for the most part. I have gone as far as deleting my history on each browser...which does nothing. I know it can be done. It worked with me, although it wasn't easy. Mine also gave the same message but finally, it worked. I could not find a contact number or help source on the government website, not that they would reply anyway. Any suggestions?

I have a dell touchscreen xps15 bought back in 2019. the screen is showing lines and blurred out across the bottom half but the touch features are still responsive where the screen isn’t visible. the battery is also dead requiring me to keep it plugged in perpetually.

does anyone know where in Phnom Penh would be a good place to get it repaired?

Arrival of the Portuguese in Southeast Asia and Warfare

With the arrival of the Portuguese to Southeast Asia in the 16th century and the introduction of guns/canons to region, how drastically did it change the nature of Warfare and military organization? There seemed to be a demand for Portuguese mercenaries during wars of that era and later on. Did SE Asian kingdoms ever adopt the technology and techniques or did they rely heavily on obtaining weapons from the Portuguese and using their soldiers?
