In Cambodia an app called "PassApp" seems to be used for rides as well. To sign up you need a Cambodian number, which is easily available because local SIM cards are extremely cheap, either for free or for just a few USD at the airport or mobile phone carriers shops like "Smart".
Here is an overview of the networks / SIM card options in Cambodia: https://prepaid-data-sim-card.fandom.com/wiki/Cambodia
Yes, PassApp is indeed the Cambodian "Grab" - very similar, and probably slightly cheaper. But like you said, it requires Cambodian number, what was not the case before Covid. Not everyone has/wants Cambodian number to activate it.
