5 Australian Women Come To Cambodia To Volunteer for the World Health Organization & RHAC

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.

Yeah, hundreds of highly-qualified local doctors will lose out on their big chance to study neurosurgery now.

Yes, they'll be taking away all those opportunities for local experts to work in reproductive health. The village witch doctors will be up in arms.

G'day sheilas, come to save the world in your floral dresses. If you had any brains you'd get paid.

We don't take street fares with our tuktuks and don't consider that we're taking ANY work from local drivers, but it's no surprise that the only locals to get shouty when they see me driving (four in three years, from memory) are generally pissed and lounging around in their tuk-tuk with no evident intention of actually doing any work for the day.

You can never tell a person's past. Perhaps the responses are fashioned from experience?

I think these people volunteering are doing so because there is an obvious lack of local skilled medical personnel.

They should be commended for that, bit like Medcins sans Frontieres.
