The modelling business in Cambodia is growing in popularity, offering new opportunities for young women.
Long Makara, 27, is is one of the most successful models in Cambodia. She models for magazines, the Cambodian Television Network and she even represented Cambodia at the Miss Tourism Queen international beauty contest in 2005, which is aimed at boosting tourism in participating countries.
She said: "Modelling is making a lot of progress. Our models from Sapor's Modelling School get a lot of support.
"We get hired for companies' opening ceremonies and the rich people want to see how nice the new designer clothes are."
She attends classes twice a week to further develop her skills and to help the younger models.
Sapor Rendall, the owner of Sapor's modelling school, said: "I opened the school because, most importantly, I am a model myself and I was so shy in the beginning, but then later I was alright, that I felt I should create this business so young Cambodian girls can join and get jobs."
The school offers not only courses in modelling, but also in make-up artistry, hair styling, facials, manicures, pedicures, massage and cooking to students from different parts of the country.
So for Sapor's students who do not have a model's traditional attributes, like long legs and flawless skin, they can still find success in related careers in beauty shops, spas and other small businesses.

glad to see cambodia is starting to develop in all field of business, meaning job prospect for many more khmers. yes, personal talent can make a person earn a living. i strongly all khmer use their god-given talent if they have talent or know someone who has one, do encourage others to show their true color as they say it in the west.
Yes, and the next step is to get into porn, and then hardcore, just like the west.
"the rich people want to see ...."
It says it all !!!!
Beware young Cambodian girl .
Ah savage Xam Rainxy and his barbaric infidel allied must be stopped from destroying all Indochinese culture.
cambodian people ought not be afraid to be sexy, to be good looking etc. because good, attractive looks do depend a lot on how one dresses up and makeup helps,too. just be mean if someone try to flirt or harrass because that person happened to like your or what have you. be a bitch because usually bitchy people do not attract others, especially someone they don't like.
No tanks, we don't want any immoral business like yours. So keep it in the west, alright?
Hey you Viet troller/pimp/parasite/plunderer @6:55 AM, @12:04 AM, and 3:21 AM,
You Viet troller/intruder admitted yourself here on KI-Media to being a Viet-born and national.
You Viet troller/intruder have been dumping tons of trashes here on KI-Media over God knows for how long.
You Viet troller/intruder pretend to be Cambodian/Khmer speaking up for Cambodian/Khmer and giving Cambodian/Khmer a bad name.
You Viet troller/intruder trash everybody here on KI-Media calling Cambodian/Khmer all sort of names to boast, to sabotage and to destroy Cambodian/Khmer for the benefit of you Viet intruder/plunderer....
Now, you Viet trash/troller/intruder/parasite call that a debate?
Does history and now a live example of you Viet trash/troller here on KI-Media tell Cambodian/Khmer anything about the Viet's trustworthiness?
Cambodian/Khmer and the whole world see and know the true colors of you Viet troller/intruder/invader/plunderer/parasite too well already.
In plain and simple English, now, and again what part of you "getting the fuck out of KI-Media" don't you understand huh you fucking Viet troller/intruder/pimp/plunderer?
Let's see you Viet pimp/parasite's tail between your legs and run on home out of KI-Media now!
Go home Viet, go home!
You will hurt the Viet and not hurting us Cambodian/Khmer by hanging around here on KI-Media and having made such comments.
Go home Viet, go home!
The world sees and knows you Viet true colors already!!!
Either that or the Viet prostitutes flocking into Cambodia every freaking minutes of the freaking Viet pimp/parasite's life!!!
