As with any tidal river the incoming tide from the sea has greater force than the flow of the river. The low tide level of the river in Cambodia is lower than the high tide level out at sea, and the flow of the Mekong 'inverts' with the tides throughout its stretch in Vietnam and up to Phnom Penh.

What is an eddy?

A whirlpool. An eddy is water that flows opposite from the normal flow of a river. When a river's water level rises, tributaries that point in the opposite direstion of the flow of the river will rise too. This water will flow upstream in the tributaries and fill them to the level of the river. In some regional areas, such as southern states of the US, an eddy is a part of a river that is set off from the river where the water has no flow at all unless the river is rising.
