The good news it will be an alert for long-waiting android users in Cambodia to hear their language officially released in this new version of Android OS; meaning that from Android 4.4 up to, we no need to root or install any apps to use Khmer Unicode anymore, the language will be embedded into Android firmware. Are you happy to hear that?

The Android will use the Google font “Noto Sans Khmer, it is similar to Nokora” which designed by Mr. Danh Hong. Have you checked it out on any Android devices with the version yet?

I am so happy to see Khmer language included in Android 4.4.

Note: All new features will be released firstly into all Google devices OS such as Nexus 5, if interested buy it here (it's not available to purchase online in Cambodia market yet)! 

Finally, Cambodian Android users will enjoy using their language easily. And I would like to thank for Android developer team and Cambodian related institutes or persons who make the nation language appears in this Google product, Android KitKat.
