 note = {Many studies have investigated the spread of English in the outer-circle countries, as well as Englishization of higher education in Asia. This article, instead, focuses on the Englishization of secondary/primary education in expanding-circle Asia, taking Cambodia as a case in point. Cambodia, being one of the most ethno-linguistically homogeneous countries in Asia, already has an established national language, Khmer. English, nevertheless, has been an important language in higher education since the end of the civil war in the early 1990s. By trickle-down effect, Englishization of secondary and elementary education is ongoing in the urban, private sector settings. Based on a visit to one such school in Phnom Penh, this study found that there was a separation of functions between Khmer and English, with the former used for maintaining national identity and expressing own culture internationally while the latter is seen to open the door to further studies and career opportunities. The study argues that a stable diglossic situation may ensue because of this situation.},
