Mondulkiri: German Expat and Owner of Adventure Rider Asia, Reinhard Trippmacher, Arrested for Growing Marijuana Plants

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.

MY guess is someone set him up as he has been around awhile, most likely someone wanting to muscle in on his motorcycle business
Ahh what.........calm down.

These idiots only learn it the hard way. These "yeahhhhhh.......Cambodia - everything is cool man" guys with 0 brains.
This little adventure will cost him a very cool $ 10000. You can have a nice, peaceful life in Cambodia, but you have to stay away from drugs, drug dealers, pimps and whores.........yes, it's as simple as that. And btw. Marihuana is the most stupid drug on the face of this planet.

Welcome to CEO, Rock.

Grabbing all they could? His neighbors were stealing his weed plants? He should have called the pol.....never mind.

Thanks, and no comment on the the neighbors taking any weed plants ;-). My comment is that this is a nice guy we are talking about and now he is locked up in Mondulkiri prison. They also got a few girls for selling ice but seems like small amounts 8g or something.

If they really wanted to do something about the drugs up here (that are not a lot compared to Kampot or PP) they would have busted a few of the major ice dealers instead, just my 2 cents.

Thx. For the record, I have no problem with him growing weed, whether he plans to smoke it or whatever.

As others have pointed out, that's a really small amount of weed, and it almost seems certain this has to do with something else other than the police just finding his plants.

Probably doesn't help that he's so verbal about his love of marijuana on public Facebook page.

Expats who live out in the boonies, are highly visible, what you do or say is reported and commented on. This being the case it is not a good idea to run down the local constabulary or commune officials. As for neighbours coming on your land, happens all the time . What exactly were they grabbing? :hattip:

What ??? "His girls" sold ice ????? 8 grams of ice is not a small amount - this is a wholesale dealer amount. Even in the western world you would get busted for that.

:-) I don't care Richard. We have a lot of idiots in the western world. Idiots need idiotic drugs. Fact is that in most parts of the world it's illegal. Fact is that it is illegal in Cambodia.

While I am in favour of legalizing marijuana in the States everywhere, I don't think the law makers are doing it based on the fact that it's "harmless."
