King's Mother Birthday in Cambodia is the celebration of the birth of Norodom Monineath Sihanouk, which occurred on June 18th, 1936.
As her given name at birth was "Paule Monique Izzi," she is still sometimes referred to as "Queen Monique."
The occasion is an official public holiday, known as "King's Mother Birthday" because she is the mother of Cambodia's King.
