February 20, 2021, Covid Community Outbreak (Koh Pich and Beyond)

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.

Right! People should stop blaming the Chinese. :facepalm:

No, actually, time to rein them in. Time for them to respect Cambodia's laws and sovereignty, and stop making out that they own the place.
These quarantine escapees should be jailed, then deported to face the consequences back in their own organ harvesting country.
They are all Chinese* because they would have been on the same flight... from China. So do you blame the Chinese, or the hotel/security?

*Except for the Vietnamese guy.

Oh, come on.

If it were a group of Americans......you fucking lot would all be up in arms, screaming about arrogant, selfish Yanks flouting protocol and endangering the populous.

Not one of you would blame a poor, underpaid security guard.

Some of you seem to get off on being contrarians.

Lots of foreign flights have a layover in China before landing in Cambodia. I doubt ever single passenger was Chinese.
Still here, in country...

They are blaming the Chinese of course, but some tested positive when trying to leave Cambodia. They probably caught it there.
Wumao agitprop
They are blaming "the Chinese" because all the infected are Chinese!

Sorry if you feel that is unfair.

It wouldn't happen because there aren't any flights with almost 100% American pax on board.

We already have on this forum.

Remember the French, American, Khmer quarantine runners last year? The Hungarian geezer and his delegation also? I'm probably overlooking a few as well

Western men have taken advantage of Cambodia for decades and not respected its sovereignty. First bombing it, then molesting children, abusing drugs, sex tourism, overstaying visas. Do not blame the Chinese without looking at your own countrymen.

Totally agree, and we all know that the Wuhan virus was created by the US, the Tiananmen massacre was fiction, the Xinjiang camp tortures were fake, and the people of Taiwan were so desperate to be united with the mainland. China number one!
