Welcome. Would any of your people be interested in helping us with
localization into Khmer? I am the Khmer localization Administrator.

Starting from November 2008, we planned to teach the school kids in our targeted areas to use the computer. Could somebody please provide me some guidelines and/or help with this issue?

The Khmer OS TT fonts are at
http://www.khmeros.info/drupal/?q=en/download/fonts. You can install
them in the normal manner for Linux. There is also a Khmer keyboard
layout file on the laptops. In Terminal,

setxkbmap kh

At some point you will get laptops that have a keyboard toggle to go
between Khmer and Latin layouts.
