Cambodia’s overall Internet penetration has increased significantly over recent years, although it is still very low.

In December 2012 the Cambodian Ministry of Posts and Telecommunication reported 2.7 million Internet users, with 27 ISPs serving a population of 14.5 million. At 19.1 million, there are more SIM cards in Cambodia than people. According to Internet World Stats.com, Cambodia had 742,220 Internet users as of Dec 31, 2012, which translates into an Internet penetration rate of 5 percent. Facebook, which is often an accurate barometer of Internet use, has an estimated 740,000 accounts originating in Cambodia, a number that is increasing rapidly.
