Cambodia was once a Communist state, and as such, International Labour Day was considered an important public holiday. It still is today under a free economy, but the principles of free labour and workers’ rights held today give the holiday a new character.
In Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital, there is an annual Labour Day march. Some events may take place at Freedom Park far from the city centre, but others will crowd the downtown areas despite occasional limitations from the city government.
