What I'm looking for

I’m seeking long-term career growth in Government Affairs and Public Policy, with a focus on compliance management, legal operations, and corporate risk management—especially in the ICT, technology, and digital economy sectors.

I’m a Government & External Affairs professional with 8+ years of experience supporting Chinese-invested companies in Cambodia. I specialize in regulatory & legal compliance, government liaison, and cross-cultural stakeholder engagement, handling corporate documentation, legal coordination, and executive operations support.

I bring strong knowledge of Cambodia’s regulatory landscape—especially foreign employee compliance, risk management, and proactive issue resolution. In my Executive Affairs & Compliance work, I served as the primary liaison with Immigration, Labor, Tax, Police, and Customs-related stakeholders, managed visa/work permit administration, supported legal counsel in disputes and inspections, and delivered executive reporting and confidential multilingual communications; I’m also actively preparing for the Cambodian Bar Examination to become a fully licensed attorney.
