Man Burns His House Down, Because...

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.

The fire burned down a 7x8m wooden house, and destroyed everything inside it, including two million riels and 800 baht, two gold necklaces, two platinum necklaces, a motorbike, a cart, rice, a battery, a TV, two phones, some document, and others.

In this case, lieutenant Kae Kachana, the inspector, led the police force to put out the fire using two firetrucks. Fortunately they prevented the fire from spreading to the neighboring buildings and nobody was hurt.
