Asian kingdom whose official language is Khmer (8)

I believe the answer is:

cambodia

(Other definitions for cambodia that I've seen before include "Kampuchea before 1975" , "Southeast Asian country" , "Country of SW Asia, capital Phnom Penh" , "SE Asian country" , "distant land" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
