This person is not notable, according to a thorough online search. There are no publications to support her claims of work. Fails general notability guidelines.

Keep based on a search for Khmer language sources aided by machine translation. Issues with the article can be partly attributed to its origins as a puff piece. Another contributing factor is
wp:systemic bias due to a lack of English language sources and shortage of proficient editors from Cambodia. I've taken some initial steps to try to address sourcing and tone issues. Notability assessment follows.
Difficult to assess as an actress, probably does not meet
WP:ENT. Filmography looks incomplete and lacks details, but appears to be a product of good faith efforts; finding reliable secondary sources is challenging. Primary-sourced evidence of acting career in the form of a "portfolio" of excerpts on
her YT channel, appears to be mostly TV rather than movies; unclear if in major or minor roles. Recipient in 2013 of "most popular actress" category in Cambodian entertainment awards show, but some controversy over this as it was decided by popular vote. Interestingly,
a recent news article chose to cite her appearance in an MV rather than some more substantial acting achievement. Youtube search finds evidence of non-acting appearances (talk/variety shows) on television (MyTV, PNN) supporting some amount of celebrity status. As a fashion model, there are primary-source claims via interview/spokesperson that she has attended shows in multiple foreign countries; was able to substantiate
Vietnam Int'l Fashion Week 2016. "The Secret of the Night" award also appears to be fashion-related (
YT) but does not seem remarkable. With respect to invited to participate in events and invited to opening ceremonies of retail outlets it is unclear whether attending as a guest or for modeling work, may be a mix of both. Clearly not of supermodel-tier notability.
Having failed to find enough evidence to support notability based on specific critieria, we look to
WP:GNG. Has coverage spanning a decade across multiple news outlets. Gets attention for dressing extravagantly and flaunting her figure, so need to filter out sources (e.g. sabay, khmerload) where coverage is basically a thinly veiled excuse for photo galleries. There is SIGCOV in articles written specifically about her in entertainment sections of newspapers, though much of it is celebrity gossip that I think we'd rather not include in the article:
Generic celebrity/socialite coverage.
[1] Wears expensive clothes,
[2] or is she just exaggerating the price?
[3]
Scandal involving an affair with a married man who had abandoned his family
[4][5]
Getting attention for "dressing extravagantly and flaunting her figure" is not a notability criteria on Wikipedia. On that logic, we've to include all Instagram stars on Wikipedia.

she appears to be "Kardashian famous", only famous for "being famous" if that makes sense. As is Paris Hilton. I'm all for eliminating bias on wikipedia, use of non-English sources and the lack of female-focused articles are always important here.
