Cock-fighting venue raided and closed down

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.

Oh, that's just because you still think like an outsider.

Who doesn't eat chicken? Are you vegan or something? Let's ban CP chicken and ginger chicken as well, then.

I hear the flesh of fighting roosters isn't as tasty or tender like chickens bred for consumption. Anyhoo ...

Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint.

Even then, don't come knocking...Not for ANY reason.

So now "chicken is the new pork" — is that what you're saying? Chicken is now taboo?

C'mon, you're just being difficult.

Gambling rings around cock fighting is generally bad. You target the breeders, you basically eliminate the problem.

Problem with targeting breeders is that, they can fight back against a very poorly-funded police force. So, they just ate the chickens, and left the humans alone for the most part.

You've never heard of the "good ol' boys network?"

Are you that much of a newbie to how things work 'round here?

Haha.

I just think it's a poor country's solution to a real social ill in the countryside! It's hilarious.

Like watching Hee-Haw in HD. Skip to 2:06 for the part about chickens.



Compare to contemporary Khmer comedy skits, like this one. Aren't the costumes sort of the same?



The issues they discuss seem disturbingly similar, besides the obvious difference in Buddhist monks and a few other variances. But disturbingly similar, haha.
