This is a very welcome development.

I have been involved in promoting local exchange points in Cambodia, 
many years before ISOC-KH came into existence, since the time when there 
were only three ISPs in the country (and I was responsible for the 
first). - Now we have a dozen different ISPs (with numbers slightly 
changing during the last year, with mergers and new arrivals) - but we 
have now three IX points operating in the country on the basis of mutual 
agreements.
