Plant and animal life

Although much of Cambodia is heavily forested, the central lowland region is covered with rice paddies, fields of dry crops such as corn (maize) and tobacco, tracts of tall grass and reeds, and thinly wooded areas. Savanna grassland predominates in the transitional plains, with the grasses reaching a height of 5 feet (1.5 metres). In the eastern highlands the high plateaus are covered with grasses and deciduous forests. Broad-leaved evergreen forests grow in the mountainous areas to the north, with trees 100 feet (30 metres) high emerging from thick undergrowths of vines, rattans, palms, bamboos, and assorted woody and herbaceous ground plants. In the southwestern highlands, open forests of pines are found at the higher elevations, while the rain-drenched seaward slopes are blanketed with virgin rainforests growing to heights of 150 feet (45 metres) or more. Vegetation along the coastal strip ranges from evergreen forests to nearly impenetrable mangroves.

The northeastern forests of Cambodia—like the neighbouring areas of Laos and Vietnam—once sheltered large populations of wild animals such as elephants, wild oxen, rhinoceroses, and several species of deer, but the loss of forest cover, combined with warfare and unregulated hunting in the region, sharply reduced those numbers. Small populations of most of these species may still be found, along with some tigers, leopards, bears, and many small mammals. Among the more common birds are herons, cranes, grouse, pheasant, peafowl, pelicans, cormorants, egrets, and wild ducks. Four varieties of snakes are especially dangerous: the Indian cobra, the king cobra, the banded krait, and Russell’s viper.

People

Ethnic groups

The Khmer (Cambodians) account for the vast majority of the population, producing a homogeneity unique in Southeast Asia that has encouraged a strong sense of national identity. Ethnic minorities include Chinese, Vietnamese, Muslim Cham-Malays, Laotians, and various indigenous peoples of the rural highlands.

The Khmer, who belong to the Mon-Khmer ethnolinguistic group, are concentrated in the lowland regions surrounding the Mekong River and the Tonle Sap, on the transitional plain, and along the coast. The product of centuries of intricate cultural and ethnic blending, the Khmer moved southward before 200 bce into the fertile Mekong delta from the Khorat Plateau of what is now Thailand. They were exposed to successive waves of Indian influence and, in the 8th century ce, to Indo-Malayan influence, perhaps including immigration from Java. Immigrations of Tai peoples occurred from the 10th to the 15th century, of Vietnamese beginning in the 17th century, and of Chinese in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Among the ethnic minorities in Cambodia before 1975, the Chinese were the most important, for they controlled the country’s economic life. They were shunted aside in the communist-led revolution of the 1970s and made to become ordinary peasants. Those who did not seek refuge abroad after 1975 and others who subsequently returned regained some of their former influence as urban centres were revived.

The Vietnamese minority occupied a somewhat lower status than the Chinese, and most of them fled or were repatriated to Vietnam after 1970. In the 1980s, however, a large number of Vietnamese migrants, many of them former residents of Cambodia, settled in the country. Centuries of mutual dislike and distrust have clouded Vietnamese-Khmer relations, and intermarriage has been infrequent.

The next most important minority after the Vietnamese is the Cham-Malay group. Known in Cambodia as Khmer Islam or Western Cham, the Cham-Malay group also maintained a high degree of ethnic homogeneity and was discriminated against under the regime of Democratic Kampuchea. Receiving only slightly better treatment than the Khmer Islam during that period were the smaller communities of indigenous peoples. These communities, known collectively as Khmer Loeu (“Upland Khmer”), include the Katu, Mnong, Stieng, Jarai, and Rhadé, among others, and inhabit the sparsely populated northeastern provinces bordering Vietnam and Laos.

Languages

The Khmer language is one of the major tongues of the Mon-Khmer subfamily of the Austroasiatic language family and is spoken by nearly all people in Cambodia, including the Cham-Malay. Smaller numbers speak Vietnamese and dialects of Chinese. The Katu, Mnong, and Stieng speak Mon-Khmer languages, while the Jarai and Rhadé speak languages of the Austronesian language family

Cambodia

Relief

Cambodia’s landscape is characterized by a low-lying central alluvial plain that is surrounded by uplands and low mountains and includes the Tonle Sap (Great Lake) and the upper reaches of the Mekong Riverdelta. Extending outward from this central region are transitional plains, thinly forested and rising to elevations of about 650 feet (200 metres) above sea level. To the north the Cambodian plain abuts a sandstone escarpment, which forms a southward-facing cliff stretching more than 200 miles (320 km) from west to east and rising abruptly above the plain to heights of 600 to 1,800 feet (180 to 550 metres). This escarpment marks the southern limit of the Dangrek (Khmer: Dângrêk) Mountains. Flowing south through the country’s eastern regions is the Mekong River. East of the Mekong the transitional plains gradually merge with the eastern highlands, a region of forested mountains and high plateaus that extend into Laos and Vietnam. In southwestern Cambodia two distinct upland blocks, the Krâvanh (Cardamom) Mountains and the Dâmrei(Elephant) Mountains, form another highland region that covers much of the land area between the Tonle Sap and the Gulf of Thailand. In this remote and largely uninhabited area, Mount Aôral, Cambodia’s highest peak, rises to an elevation of 5,949 feet (1,813 metres). The southern coastal region adjoining the Gulf of Thailand is a narrow lowland strip, heavily wooded and sparsely populated, which is isolated from the central plain by the southwestern highlands.

Drainage

The two dominant hydrological features of Cambodia are the Mekong River and theTonle Sap. Rising in the Plateau of Tibet and emptying into the South China Sea, the Mekong enters Cambodia from Laos at the Khone Falls and flows generally southward to the border with Vietnam, a distance within Cambodia of approximately 315 miles (510 km). The Mekong is connected to the Tonle Sap by the Sab River. During the rainy season (mid-May to early October), the Mekong’s enormous volume of water backs up into the Sab and flows up into the Tonle Sap 65 miles (105 km) to the northwest, expanding the lake’s surface area from a dry-season minimum of 1,200 square miles (3,100 square km) to a rainy-season maximum of more than 3,000 square miles (7,800 square km). As the water level of the Mekong falls during the dry season, the process is reversed: water drains from the Tonle Sap back down into the Mekong, switching the direction of its flow. As a result of this annual phenomenon, the Tonle Sap is one of the world’s richest sources of freshwater fish.

Soils

Most of Cambodia’s soils are sandy and poor in nutrients. The so-called red-soil areas in the eastern part of the country, however, are suitable for commercial crops such as rubber and cotton. The annual flooding of the Mekong during the rainy season deposits a rich alluvial sediment that accounts for the fertility of the central plain and provides natural irrigation for rice cultivation.

How to Use a Cell Phone

I. Finding the Best Cell Phone Plan

1-  Research local cell phone carriers in your area. Depending on your region, there will be numerous phone companies with a variety of plans. Go on their website or to their shops and ask for information about their services. Or read reviews and ask others what their experiences are like with their provider.

• The amount of people using a certain provider is a good indicator of which carrier is the best in your area.

2. Look for a provider with the best network coverage. A good company should be able to provide a large range of reliable coverage and reception. This usually means they will own the most number of cellular towers in order to provide network service to more areas. It ensures that your calls won't be dropped while you're moving from place to place and you'll be able to receive service in low populated or underground locations.

• Most countries will have a map of all cellular towers that label which towers are used by which provider that you can find by doing a quick internet search. A good provider should have the most towers in your area or areas where you frequent most.
• A company might advertise plans with great deals but this doesn't necessarily mean they will have a reliable network. A great plan is only useful if you're able to carry out calls and receive service where ever you are.
• If you travel a lot, consider looking for a carrier that provides national or international coverage.

3- Evaluate data network speeds of cell phone providers. Like network coverage, data coverage depends on your region and the carrier. Data is useful if you plan to use the Internet on your phone or if you have a smartphone.

• Compare data network speeds between carriers. You can usually find this information on their website or from a sales representative. The higher the number of kilobits per second (kbps), the faster you'll be able to use the internet to upload and download data.
• Technology is always updating. The latest data "G" or generation of mobile technology will be the fastest. However, not all phones can support the latest and fastest data connection.^[1]

4- Decide what cellular service plan is right for you. The plan you choose will dictate what kind of phone you can get, what you can do with your phone, how long you have to stay with the carrier, and how much you'll have to pay each month. Choose a plan that is within your budget but still allows you to have the features you want to use on your phone. Some common features include:

• Minutes: How many minutes of call time are you offered per month? How much does it cost to go over the maximum? Do these minutes rollover to the next month if left unused? Some providers designate certain times of the day or days of the week where you can use an unlimited amount of minutes to make and receive calls. Some may offer unlimited calling.
• Texting: Today, texting is probably the most important must-have feature of cell phones. And most providers will offer unlimited texting or a certain number of free texts. Be careful, some providers may charge you just for opening texts.
• Data Usage: Providers will offer varying amounts of data you can use each month to download and upload from the Internet. This can range anywhere from 500 MB to 6 GB to an unlimited amount of data usage.
• Voicemail: There is often an additional charge to use this feature. It is very useful when you can't always answer your phone. However, calling your voicemail box may count towards using up call time minutes.
• Caller ID: Caller ID is essential in today's world. Most plans will include caller ID now that it is a highly demanded and expected feature.
• Contracts: Most plans require you to sign a one to three year contract with the provider. Usually, you'll receive a discounted price for the cost of the physical phone up front or a way to finance your phone throughout your contract. However, you'll still be paying the cost of the phone plan through the span of your contract, along with any fees for additional features and taxes.
• Family Plans: If several members of your family use cell phones, then it may be more affordable to go with a family plan. The number of minutes, data, and texts are shared among your family to use each month.

5- Purchase a pre-paid phone plan. If you have bad credit, want to save money, or you simply want to try having a cell phone without signing up for a long contract, you may want a prepaid or pay-as-you-go plan. However, some of the cons are:

• Phones cost full price and you have to pay for it all at once. Although, some older models of phones are relatively cheap.
• Your coverage is not the carrier's top priority. Even though you may opt for a carrier that has the best coverage in your area, contract users will have top priority when it comes to their network.^[2]
• Customer service may be lacking.

II- Choosing the Right Phone

1- Choose a classic cell phone if your cellular needs are simple. You might only want to call and text your friends and family. They are designed for ease of use and come in a variety of models such as a flip-phone design or slide out keyboard.^[3]

• The cost of a classic cell phone is much lower. Some contracts will offer the phone for $0.
• Classic cell phones are quite durable. This is great if your life involves being in conditions where you might drop your phone or need to use it in unstable situations. You won't have to worry about breaking them as easily as a smartphone.
• If you're older and want a simple wireless phone, classic cell phones are your best choice. Some phones have enlarged keypads for easy dialing.

2- Invest in a smartphone. Smartphones are like mini-computers and are the most popular choice of phone for consumers. They have touch-screens, wifi connectivity, HD cameras, and come in different operating systems (OS). The most popular OS systems are:

• Apple's iOS: This OS has the largest variety of content and applications, and is known for its ease and polished user interface. It is most popular for mainstream consumers who just want to absorb content (like watch video, play games, or connect with friends) rather than create content for professional uses. For this reason, many work professionals may prefer another OS.
• Android: Android offers more flexibility for developers or those who want to customize how their OS looks and works. The OS is highly customizable if you know the basics of tech education and is useful if you'd like to develop applications.
• Windows: If you're a business owner, then this OS might be right for you. Windows integrates many traditional Windows applications such as Microsoft Office, Exchange, and its cloud. It offers more power to create and customize advanced documents.

3-Consider alternative phones such as tablets or personal digital assistants (PDA). PDAs are not as popular these days but upgraded models of these phones, such as the Blackberry, work well if your focus is primarily on browsing the Internet without all the extra features that come with smartphones. Tablets have larger screens and have more versatility and power close to a desktop or laptop, but have the convenience of a smartphone.

III-Using Your Cell Phone

1

Create a contact list by gathering up phone numbers of people you want to talk to. For smartphones, there should be an app or icon that has a picture of a phone or says "Phone". Tap to view your contacts and/or tap the button to add a contact (this is usually indicated by a "+" symbol). Input your contact's information and phone number with the keypad and save. If you're using a classic phone, it's as easy as dialing the number and pressing a button that allows you to create a contact.

• Some phones will have different tabs for your favourite numbers, recent calls, contacts, keypad, and voicemail.
• Read your phone's manual since each OS can vary slightly the way contacts are made. Android phones will differ from iPhones and Win

2- Make calls by choosing or dialling a number and pushing the "send" or "call" button. This button is often indicated by green lettering or symbols. Proceed as with any other phone call.

• End the call by pushing "end" which is indicated with red lettering or symbols. Calls will usually end automatically after the person you spoke to hangs up, but it's best to get into the habit of hanging up, especially since some calls are billed by the minute.
• You can view any missed or recent calls within the phone app on a smartphone or by looking through your menu on a classic phone. Details about who the call came from, when the call was made, and options to redial and save new contacts are available.

3- Set up your voicemail box. Most phones will have a button that directly dials your voicemail box for you. If you can't find this button, holding "1" on your keypad will dial your voicemail number. Follow the system prompts to create your password, record your name announcement, and/or record your greeting.

• If you don't want to record your own greeting, the system will use its own programmed greeting and personalize it using the name you recorded.
• You can change your password, name, and greeting anytime by dialling the voicemail number and following its menu prompts.
• When you receive a voicemail, your smartphone will alert you or display a notification. Tap the voicemail number or hold "1" to access your mailbox. Input your password and listen to your messages. Follow the prompts to either callback the number, save the message or delete the message.

4

Text your contacts. Most phones will label your text messaging inbox or app as "Messages" or "Messaging". You can then "Create a New Message" from there. Or you can choose a contact from your contact list, press the options key, and look for an option that lets you send a message to the contact.

• Classic phones without QWERTY keyboards may require you to learn and use T9 or predictive text to type messages.
• Smartphones will have an array of different messaging apps you can download and use. Some messaging apps will use your provider's cellular network to send messages and some will use the Internet or data which count towards your plan's data usage.
  

5

Lock your keypad or smartphone to secure it from pocket dials or thefts. Each phone and OS will have a different way to lock your keypad. For example, Apple's iOS 8 and up, and iPhones 5 and greater, offer Touch ID security that reads your fingerprints in order to unlock your phone. While other smartphones will only require you to enter a password or a 4-digit number. Check your settings or user manual to learn how to lock your phone.

• For most classic phones, locking your keypad is not a form of security but rather a preventative measure against pocket dialling. If you have a flip phone, this should not be a worry for you. If not, most phones lock by pressing the menu key, quickly followed up the asterisks key. To unlock your phone, press the unlock key (indicated on your phone key) and then the asterisk key.^[4]
• If you're worried about theft, most smartphones have apps or measures to locate your phone if it's stolen.

1. 6-Connect your phone to a WiFi network. For most classic phones, connecting it to a WiFi connection is not possible. Instead, your phone will use data if it ever connects to the Internet. Smartphones, when connected to WiFi, will stop using data and you will no longer be limited to the amount of data your plan offers.

   • iPhones: Tap the Settings icon, then press the Wi-Fi bar. Turn on the Wi-Fi if it's not already on and choose a network from the list below. You will need to enter a password if the network is protected. Tap "Join".
   • Androids: On your home screen, tap the Apps icon and then open the Settings app. Make sure the Wi-Fi master control is on in the top right hand corner and choose an available network in your area. You will need to enter a password if the network is protected. Tap the "Connect" button.
   • Windows: Swipe left to reveal your App List, tap Settings and then Wi-Fi. Make sure your Wi-Fi is turned on and choose a network from the available networks in your area. You will need to enter a password if the network is protected. Tap "Done".
   • Once you're connected to Wi-Fi, its symbol should appear on the status bar of your phone. For most phones, it will replace the "G" data symbol to indicate it is no longer using your carrier's data.
2. 
   7
   Learn how to download apps. Most smartphones will have a set of applications already downloaded and one of them should be your operating system's app store. Tap on its icon and browse or search up apps you wish to use. You may need to set up an account to download apps. Your phone should prompt you to set up an account which often asks for your personal information and payment options.

   • iPhones use the App Store app and require users to set up an Apple ID.
   • Androids use the Google Play app store.
   • Windows phones install apps from the Windows Store.
   • Some apps cost money. Make sure you have the correct payment information in your account. Be careful when allowing others to use your phone or your account to download apps. In most cases, a password is required to download any apps that cost money to protect you from unwanted purchases.
   • Some apps have in-app purchases or options to buy more features to upgrade the app you downloaded.
   • Classic phones don't usually have apps stores you can download from, but rather already have a set number of applications downloaded. Some later models of classic phones will have games, pictures, or music applications.
3. 
   8
   Charge your phone regularly by plugging it in with a charger. Phones will have a battery life indicator that will tell you the percentage left or the time remaining of your battery life. Most phones will give you a warning or reminder when its battery life is running low.

   • Invest in different types of chargers such as a car charger, dock chargers for home audio systems, or another extra charger.
