LONG BEACH -- Carol Rodley didn't think the Long Beach community could come up with 90 minutes of questions about the country where she is stationed.
Obviously, the United State Ambassador to Cambodia didn't know Long Beach.
Even after the two-hour time slot had run out at the Town Hall meeting at Mark Twain Library between the new ambassador and the community had ended, people were still lining up to quiz the diplomat.
"It was great to come here," Rodley said. "This is a lively and engaged community."
