Another Barang on self destruct mode on 136st

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.

To “tap” somebody is to ask them for money.

When you "tap" a girl who works at Mr. Butterfly Bar, she asks you for money.

Who knows what he meant by tapping beer? I think he's just pissed off because the guy slagged off his pies.

I already told you :!: , when somebody is on the "tap" they want money, or in this case a beer, we use the expression all the time in the uk. A few weeks before xmas i spoke to my niece on the phone and she said "i might tap you up before xmas" ie borrow some money.

If one were to 'tap' my girlfriend, in the Australian vernacular, one would risk dismemberment.

the mistake you made is using English words. many people here only speak American or Australian.
