Bringing the house down; expat detained for questioning

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.

Is that a dissembled hacksaw, screwdriver, and knife?

He live next to a vault or something?
Melvin Udall: Never, never, interrupt me, okay?

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.

If we're going to deride people for their physical appearance/income, can we also mock very short people ?

It kind of follows...

How about two very ugly police? Possibly brothers.
They arrested him for home improvement? Really?

LOL

it's kind of hard to reconcile railing against the tiniest hint of racism (Jap/Brit/Yank = debatable) with making snide comments about people's appearances. I mean, isn't racism about exactly that? Having a go at people because of their colour/ appearance?

Good thing we have people with the physique of Apollo on hand to set the standard.
