Changing Culture in Cambodia

Recently I have noticed more and more women wearing some sort of socks or hose. The women who do tend to stand out because the common footware in most of Asia is either nothing or a simple flip-flop or slip-on sandal. I'm not sure what is precipitating the style change. Maybe it's just a fad but maybe it's another instance of Western values creeping into Asian culture.
