According to itypeusa, Cambodia is a Southeast Asian nation located in the heart of the Indochinese Peninsula. It is bordered by Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and the Gulf of Thailand. The total land area of Cambodia is 181,035 square kilometers and it has a population of 16.2 million people according to a 2019 estimate. The official language of Cambodia is Khmer and the currency used is the Cambodian Riel (KHR). The majority of the population are Theravada Buddhists and there are also small communities of Muslim, Christian and other religious groups. Cambodia has a tropical climate with two distinct seasons: a dry season from November to April and a wet season from May to October. The average temperature is around 27°C (80°F). The economy of Cambodia relies heavily on agriculture, tourism, garments & footwear manufacturing as well as telecommunications & construction activities. Its main exports include rice, garments & footwear products as well as rubber while its imports consist mainly of machinery & transport equipment, petroleum products and chemicals. The government has made significant efforts to reduce poverty since 1993 through economic reforms such as liberalization policies and increased access to education opportunities for all citizens. Additionally, investments in infrastructure projects such as roads and bridges have helped boost economic growth in recent years. Cambodia is located in the Indochina Time Zone, which is seven hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+7). This time zone is shared with other countries such as Laos and Vietnam. During Daylight Saving Time (DST), clocks are moved forward one hour to UTC+8. DST begins on the last Sunday of March and ends on the last Sunday of October each year. Cambodia is also part of the South East Asia Summer Time (SEAST) Zone, which is eight hours ahead of UTC during DST. Most countries in South East Asia observe DST from March to October each year, so Cambodia follows suit. During this time period, it shares its time zone with other countries such as Thailand and Indonesia. Clocks are moved back one hour to UTC +7 when DST ends in October. In addition to observing Daylight Saving Time along with other parts of South East Asia, Cambodia also observes certain holidays with special times or exceptions to its standard time zone. For example, on New Year’s Day all clocks are moved forward by one hour for an additional hour of daylight savings time. On Independence Day (the day celebrating Cambodia’s independence from France), all clocks are moved back by two hours so that people can attend celebrations earlier at night; this is known as “Independence Miracle” or “Little Independence” in some parts of Cambodia.
