Building Cambodia Portal: from curated signals to trend intelligence

A simple place to follow Cambodia tech news, useful communities, and what is getting attention.

Ultimate goal

Make it easy for anyone in Cambodia to keep up with tech. Instead of checking many websites and groups, people can come to one page and quickly see what matters.

Current goal

Right now, we are building a solid first version that is easy to use:

  • Live website at portal.niyey.com
  • Fresh Cambodia-focused news updates
  • Search and trending topics
  • A growing community directory (Facebook, Telegram, websites, etc.)

Roadmap

  1. Phase 1: Keep content fresh and improve quality every day.
  2. Phase 2: Better ranking so the most useful stories and communities appear first.
  3. Phase 3: Add deeper search and smarter trend tracking as data grows.
  4. Phase 4: Add clearer insights by topic (startup, AI, software, etc.).

Progress so far

  • Portal is live and updating regularly.
  • Search and trending are already working.
  • Trending article clicks are tracked to improve ranking over time.
  • Community directory is live and expanding.

Still early, but momentum is good. The focus now is simple: keep quality high, keep adding useful communities, and make the site easier for more people to use.
