Cambodia To-do:

Let us work in the best reference and presentation of archaeological sites of Cambodia beyond Angkor like Sambor Prei Kuk, Angkor Borei (Takeo), etc.

Should disambiguate Republican Party for Democracy and Renewal and generally try to link up social conscience with right-wing values.

I'm looking for the best picture or any informations about the KAF's U-6 (Beaver). It seem that the KAF had 3 aircrafts. But in 1971, during the viet cong's sapper attack at the Pochentong Air Base,at least 1 Beaver was destroyed.In 1972 at leat 1 Beaver was refurbished with a new engine. http://www.khmerairforce.com/AAK-KAF/AVNK-AAK-KAF/Cambodia-Beaver-KAF.JPG

Thankfull for this info. [Unsigned]

WikiProject Countries to-do list:

Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

Article requests : Check out the article alerts; see if anything catches your fancy.
Cleanup : clean-up listing for Countries
Stubs : de-stub articles in Category:Stubs by region.
Other : add {{WPCountries}} to talk pages of related articles, and assess.

== "X years ago" == Why

This is useful but having hard-codes values means somebody will have to remember to update them every year and errors might get introduced. I'm sure we have a template that can do this automatically, but I don't know what it's called. Can somebody who knows which template it is fix these?

It is a totalitarian military dictatorship

It most definitely is not a totalitarian military dictatorship - if you wanted to characterise the form of government, it's a pretty representative Southeast Asian one-party state in which a tiny group of oligarchs rob the country blind and suppress political opposition while allowing a large amount of personal freedom; Thailand is very similar, and also Singapore. Achar Sva (talk) 00:58, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yep that’s a good assessment. As long as you don’t criticize the government, take hard drugs, or get up to criminal behavior, you have total freedom. 49.224.252.57 (talk) 01:51, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the infobox, it says that it’s the 71st most populous country with 17,638,801 people. Could someone change that to 73rd to match with Worldometers? For GDP, please change 97th to 89th and 108th to 98th to match with their links. 2603:8080:D03:89D4:340F:F850:71E5:C9C2 (talk) 20:41, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hereditary authoritarian regime?

Looking at infoboxed for Syria and Turkmenistan, I cannot help but think that Cambodian one should also mention that it is a hereditary regime. I am sure there are articles out there describing it as such since the current Prime Minister was brought into his office by his strongman father. Gorgedweller (talk) 09:00, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's generally much preferable to begin with the sources about the topic in question, rather than perusing what may or may not be comparable results on other pages, cf. WP:OTHERCONTENT. Remsense ‥ 论 09:02, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
