Traffic Law Crackdown Starts Tuesday 15 March (Tomorrow)

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

They are not hiding behind big trees anymore as now they have fully rights to take money from us legally with bigger amount.

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.

Is that because your afraid they may try and get more money before they give it back?

And yes, it seems a pretty horrible job, but it beats picking up cans.

Because if you got robbed, the robber would have everything and they can sell the motorbike easily.

before the law of traffic police are allowed to keep 90% of the fine came out, they ask for payment without giving any receipts for fear of corruption charges, now they still do not give out receipts for fear of running out of ink in their pen. :roll:

dear o dear cambodia, legalised corruption and yet still lazy.
