Oddar Meanchey is a province of Cambodia in the remote northwest. It borders the provinces of Banteay Meanchey to the west, Siem Reap to the south and Preah Vihear to the east. Its long northern boundary demarcates part of Cambodia's international border with Thailand. The capital is Samraong. The final stronghold of Anlong Veng became the jungle headquarters of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge of Democratic Kampuchea once they rebuild their former bases in the jungle on 18 February 1994.
