Commemoration Day of King Father Norodom Sihanouk is observed in Cambodia every October 15. This public holiday was established following the death of Norodom Sihanouk, who was the father of the current King of Cambodia. Sihanouk, born on October 31, 1922, served as King from 1941 to 1955 and later from 1993 to 2004 after a period of exile. He passed away in Beijing on October 15, 2012, at the age of 89. Since then, Cambodians have commemorated his legacy on this date. Notable events include the inauguration of a statue of Sihanouk in Phnom Penh in 2013, which serves as a symbol of remembrance for his contributions to the nation.
