Cambodia's Plate Tectonics

Cambodia is not prone to earthquakes due to it's distance from volatile tectonic plates.

Cambodia is located in the Eurasian Plate with other European and Asian Countries. 
The Eurasian Plate is the 3rd slowest moving plate, behind the North and South American tectonic plates.

The Eurasian Plate moves by the flow of liquid magma beneath it. 
The land area of Cambodia is about half the size of Japan and is located on the south end of the Indochina Peninsula.
