Cambodia sees growing support for military as border tensions with Thailand persist

Life in Cambodia’s capital, Phnom Penh, appears calm despite fighting along the border with Thailand. Yet the conflict is reshaping public attitudes and fuelling a surge in nationalism. Support for the military is growing, from school classrooms to street rallies. Civic pride is increasingly merging with calls for mobilisation. At the same time, voices urging restraint and peace are becoming louder. The distant conflict is quietly changing how many Cambodians see their country and its role.
