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.

It's even closer to me. Word has it that it was quite late, after 9pm, so well past curfew.

SWMBO was watching the commotion in the aftermath from our balcony. She was thinking it was a mugging.

Think you mentioned in another post , you wouldn't want to wandering around the empty streets after curfew.

Yeah. I'm willing to bet that situation outside ABA the other night wouldn't have happened if there was still normal traffic for the hour going by. That stretch is usually quite populated till shortly before midnight.

Guarantee he got into a dispute with the theives on the riverside. The police need to take their bikes and lock them up. There's about a dozen of them and they all have bikes and weapons and steal for a living. They are even stealing from the venders down there so perhaps someone will have the courage to do something. Doubt it tho
