    Much enjoyed your world leaders series, and looking forward to this one.

    Re taxis: Cambodia has only recently introduced car-based cabs. Previously it was tuktuks and other motorbike-based things - see http://lukasincambodia.blogspot.com/2008/10/2008-10-05-mass-transit.html and http://lukasincambodia.blogspot.com/2008/10/2008-10-18-roaming-streets.html. The tuktuks are based on Honda, Suzuki and Sym motorbikes.

    Also in use are Cyclos - http://lukasincambodia.blogspot.com/2008/09/2008-09-20-shopping-spree.html

    The new cabs are either Camrys or Chinese Byd F3 Corolla clones - see http://lukasincambodia.blogspot.com/2008/11/2008-11-09-independence-day-1.html or http://lukasincambodia.blogspot.com/2008/09/2008-09-20-scenes-from-balcony.html for the Camrys.

    Technicality: the Germany and Netherlands Mercedes images of your cabs are the same.
