It’s profoundly unprofessional to report this as “Cambodians,” and not “Cambodia,” the country. When you write about Thai policy, do you use “the Thais?” When you write about any country, it’s always more accurate to name the country, not the generalized term for its people. Depersonalization is used for a very good reason. It avoids offending people who can differentiate themselves from the state or whatever institution you are referring to. Some may think I’m splitting hairs, but in a world on the brink of WWIII, it’s better to avoid offending anyone you haven’t thought of yet.

Hi Joe, And you say this because you live in Nonthaburi? Do residents of Bangkok apply for a residence certificate in Nonthaburi as well? Thanks! Mike
