Cambodians have access to Khmer-language email software for the first time
The Open Forum of Cambodia has reported that Cambodians are now able to send and read email in Khmer using localized version of the open source email client Thunderbird.
Until now, a native Cambodian has needed to be able to read in a foreign language to be able to send email in Cambodia. Software was not available in Khmer. The KhmerOS portal, set up earlier this year to bring together previously isolated developers is starting out by providing Khmer translations of well-known free applications such as the powerful e-mail application, Thunderbird. Thunderbird was ready for use after just two months.
