1. Thinking Asian Brown Flycatcher, but there are a couple of plain-looking FC species that I couldn't completely rule out.
2. Plain Flowerpecker?
3. Sooty-Headed Bulbul? There seems to be significant divergence in how the book I'm referencing and Wikipedia describe this species. The book and Opus are in agreement on the red vent, while Wikipedia shows the yellow vent that matches this bird. Different ssp?

1. Agree with Asian Brown: overall fairly plain plumage, pale fringes on wings, pale eye-ring, pinkish base to bill and wing-tips well short of the tail.
2. Agree with Plain Flowerpecker - quite long-billed compared to other flowerpeckers
3. Yes, Sooty-headed Bulbul. Some subspecies have yellow undertail coverts, others red. The ssp in Cambodia appears to be germani, which is yellow.
