More Chinese Takeover in Sihanoukville

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.

Unlike Jamie to spread spurious info.
You know this picture will turn up again somewhere as “fact”, and if you deny it you must be one of those China lovers (cue Jamie’s Asian gif).

I wonder when Google will go back and do another street view?
It’ll be a real eye opener!

Yes, Polaway street.

The photo was probably taken in 2016.

You mean the older one?
2013/2014, as was stated earlier. That’s the latest (and only) year from Google street view you’d get.
