I suspect you are jesting, that's about the population of ONE condo/ borey site. True figure probably over 100,000 close to a quarter of a million, just a guess

You think there are 250,000 western expats in Phnom Penh??? PP has a population of around 2.5M - one in ten people are western expats?
Even at 100k that’s one in twenty people.
I don’t buy it.

Bringing the news. You stay classy, nas, Cambodia.
That's foreigners - ie including Chinese, Vietnamese etc. It's also pre-covid. I'd be curious to know how many fled back home due to the pandemic and lockdowns.Bong Burgundy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 29, 2023 7:23 am3 year old data:

The article says 110k in country.
So, let’s say 75% remained after covid (prob generous)
50% are western (prob generous)
50% are in Phnom Penh
That leaves about 20k western expats in Phnom Penh - less than 1% of Phnom Penh population.
Would one in every hundred people you see in Phnom Penh have a pointy nose? Maybe.

Stats don't include the thousands of overstayers living under the radar .The murderers, rapists, fraudsters, gangsters, drug kings, the list goes on...

Why would rapists and murders not register on FPIC to get a work permit. I guess they would have a side gig and raping and murdering is not the only thing they do.
Even if not, they could still register as freelance.

I reckon it's about 7.

For PP, 1%?

Anyone who ever had a visa is not, regardless of whether it has expired or not. Friend of mine works for a section of govt. that follow up on unrenewed visas after a certain time-lapse

I wonder what the total is if one includes ALL expats, not just western expats?
