Cambodia Begins Using Own Unicode


PHNOM PENH, Jan 11 (NNN-AKP) — The long-awaited Unicode in Cambodian language has been allowed to use in all government’s institutions and private sectors, a government spokesman said.

Phay Siphan (pictured), spokesman of the Council of Ministers said that the Khmer Unicode, the only standardized encoding of the Khmer script has been allowed to be used nationwide.

He said the government already announced the use of this Unicode last month by a decree dated Dec. 24.

He said most of the government’s institutions and ministries, especially, the Council of Ministers have already used this Unicode for about two months.

So far, many Cambodian computers users have complained about the changeable computer script and time constraint once they type in Cambodian language.

According to the legal procedure and law, the decree on the official use across the country will come into effect 60 days after the official announcement is made. — NNN-AKP
