One of my staff's father just dropped dead in kampong chnnang, I didn't actually know it, but he's cham.
Obviously I'm not going to the funeral, but nobody seems to know the correct etiquette for the followers of the mighty mo. Do we have an office whip around, Khmer style, or just offer condolences?
The guy is really nice, so don't want to offend either way, and no Buddhist staff seem to know what to do either. Any advice?
Oh, as a side note the funeral is tomorrow and the bloke will be back at work on Wednesday or Thursday, which sure as hell beats all the Khmer 7 day nonsense and subsequent x days, years etc.
