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 helicopters that were flying around on 31 August 2016 was the flying drill of bodyguard unit and air forces preparing for the anniversary of the creation of the bodyguard unit on 4. Please don't feel scare and don't believe the rumors that was circulated around. From ABC.

Looks like a Bell 429 Global Ranger. About $6-7 mil. A flight v maintenance time of 1:1 could be a problem. I can't imagine a Khmer
rotor wing A&P tech. Scary!

Those APVs look like Tommy Cookers, good job fighting the revolution again with those pieces of shit. I guess this is China's knock-off idea of providing arms, enjoy your type 54, point away from enemy to kill

The Body Guard Unit? Is that the same unit that got guns, uniforms, vehicles/motorcycles (cars?) from the Chinese so that a Chinese company could rape Ream Park? By the looks of the equipment, the Unit got the short end of the stick. Chinese knockoffs of old Russian junk. Putting white wall tires on them is like putting lipstick on a pig. Wouldn't even have to waste a TOW on any of them. One guy with a Barrett light 50 could wax them.

They are Chinese Harbin Z-9s.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I like the quote on the front page of the PPP....

''If they were arresting him, why would they need to use a helicopter? Why do you ask such a crazy question?''
Hing Bun Heang, head of the premier’s Bodyguard Unit, discussing the unit's “exercises” that came in extreme proximity of the CNRP’s Phnom Penh headquarters.
