==History==
== History ==
Scouting and Guiding was introduced to Cambodia in the 1930s, when several independent organizations emerged. Under the Japanese occupation during [[World War II]] all Scouting and Guiding activities were banned. Scouting and Guiding was readmitted from 1945 to 1964, when it was replaced by the [[Jeunesse Socialiste Royale Khmer]], a [[socialist youth movement]]. An effort to reestablish Scouting in 1972 lasted only until 1975, when it was banned again by the [[Khmer Rouge]].

After 1990, several Scouting organizations were founded. They were merged in the coeducational [[National Association of Cambodian Scouts]] and the girls-only [[Girl Guides Association of Cambodia]].
