Soma Serei Norodom (Khmer: សោម៉ា សិរី នរោត្តម; born October 29, 1969) is a newspaper columnist, philanthropist and princess of the Cambodian royal House of Norodom. Raised in the United States, she returned to Cambodia in 2010 and began writing columns for the Phnom Penh Post. Referring to herself as "the Royal Rebel",^[1] many of her columns have been critical of the Cambodian government or members of the royal family, causing the Cambodian government to express their annoyance at her work.^[2] Princess Soma has been active in charity work for various NGOs and founded her own not-for-profit organization, the Soma Norodom Foundation. Her official title is Neak Ang Machas Ksatrei (Khmer: អ្នកអង្គម្ចាស់ក្សត្រី), with the English language style of "Highness", elevated on May 21, 2011 from "her excellency, Brhat Varman".^{[citation needed]}
