 ភូមិសាស្ត្រ 

Pailin's culture is distinctly different from most of Khmer culture. According to some data, Pailin's culture is predominantly Burmese, and has much in common with that of the country of Burma. This affinity is shown in the region's cuisine, dress, temple architecture, festivals and arts.  The culture can be seen as similar to the culture in Chiang Mai, Thailand.  The people of Pailin are predominantly Kola.  The Kola people originally migrated from Burma beginning in 1876 (note: Khmer people called the Burmese people, "Kola" or "Pumea").  Another wave of migrants, the Shan (one of the many ethnic minorities of Burma) arrived from Burma in the 1920s.  The "Kola" or Burmese immigrants of Pailin are known for their work in the precious gem business, which likely is what attracted them to Pailin.  Pailin was synonymous with the Mogok region of Burma, where similar precious gem stones were mined. According to people who are in the gem business, gem stones of Pailin are comparable to the gem stones from the Mogok region in Burma; thus, Khmer people believed the Kola or immigrants from Burma were from the Mogok region of Burma).

There are several dialects spoken locally including Khmer, Shan and Kola.  The local Khmer dialect shows influence in tone and pronunciation from the Burmese languages as well as Kham Muang and Mon language.

In Pailin, there are a few different kinds of foods.  Kola's food is distinct from Burma's Cuisine as well. The most popular Burmese style one is Mee Kola (មីកុឡា) which is a vegetarian noodle dish made from thin rice stick noodles, steamed and cooked with soy sauce and garlic chive, sometimes mixed with some meats and small lobster. Other dishes include Tom yum from Thailand and Mon banana pudding of Burma. These have all spread to other parts of Thailand and Cambodia, but normally in versions which are flavored more sweetly than the Pailin version, especially in Phnom Penh.

The Traditional clothes of Pailin is Longyi, also known as Sarong. The cloth is often sewn into a cylindrical shape. It is worn around the waist, running to the feet.  It is held in place by folding fabric over, without a knot. It is also sometimes folded up to the knee for comfort.  These traditional "longyi" have about 2 meters of in length of swan. The cloth is made of cotton and sometimes from silk. Kola men wear ankle-length patterns of checks, plaids or stripes "Longyi" in any kinds of color.  The Men always wear their white eingyi shirt which has a mandarin collar and sometimes also wear a traditional jacket called taik-pon over their eingy. It has white, grey, black or terracotta colors. They put the gaung baung turban on their head and on their feet wear simple rubber or velvet slippers.

For Kola women's calf-length longyi are in solid colors, flower prints and many kinds of designs.  They soften have a red based color, with partial stripes or very small checks similar to what Mon wear.  They also often have horizontal or vertical stripes at the middle part. Royalty traditionally wore a long dress called "thin-dai" decorated by many threads.  It was always worn by a lord's daughter and the king of the province's lady. The Women wears a beautiful blouse and a lovely shirt which is known as eingyi.  The shirt is decorated with several colors and many piece of silver.  The shirt also has horizontal or vertical stripes at the middle part in some beauty color. Kola women tie a traditional shawl on their eingyi as well as they put the shawl on their shoulders.  Women tie a lovely band on their head and wear beautiful flowers in their hair, allowing their hair to drop as a ponytail above their shoulders. They sometimes took a traditional umbrella made from baboom with them. The footwear is simple slippers of leather or velvet called Hnyat-phanat.

All of these costumes were shiny with bright colors during celebrations.  The clothing is very similar to what is worn by the Shan in Burma.

The houses in Pailin are built from wood, about 8 cm to 1 meter includes a wide door and in the middle of house, there are the hermitages of Buddha and anothers spirit house. The Kola People are fond of planting roses in front of their homes. 

 សេដ្ឋកិច្ច 
The surrounding area was rich in a variety of gemstones which were mined almost clean to support the Khmer Rouge. They also logged the area extensively, creating great environmental damage. Now all you can find is low-quality, cheap, hand-faceted gemstones at the market in downtown Pailin.

Unlike most of Cambodia, Pailin is composed primarily of uplands where little rice is grown.  This makes it very difficult for farmers to rely on subsistence agriculture.  Crop failures trigger collection of food and gems from the forests, increasing the number of land mine accidents.  Many farmers produce non-traditional crops for the markets, including sesame, mung and soya.  In 2003-04 it produced 17,204 tons of maize, the second-highest production in the country.Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.  Agricultural Statistics, 2003-04 Royal Government of Cambodia, Phnom Penh, 2004.

Traders in Pailin will accept Cambodian riels, US dollars, and Thai baht; US dollars are preferred.

Land mines
Pailin was one of the most heavily mined area in the world. Travellers are cautioned to stay on marked roads. De-mining is ongoing with UN help, which brings in some of the few foreigners that the locals encounter.

Administration
The province is divided into two districts:
2401 Pailin (ប៉ៃលិន) All districts, communes and villages in Pailin, National Institute of Statistics, http://www.bridgeinternational.biz/download/villages/Pailin.pdf 
2402 Sala Krau (សាលាក្រៅ)

Until 2001 Pailin was part of Battambang Province, then elevated to city status, and then again to provincial status and thus became an autonomous zone of its own.
