Nigerian Sentenced to Death in Vietnam for Trafficking 4Kgs of Meth from Cambodia

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.

I'd take a Nigerian over the French any day of the week. Case by case though, there are good & bad eggs in every bunch.

Read about the facts then tell me again how I am wrong http://www.law.umich.edu/special/exoner ... ctions.pdf - the fact of the matter is black people are hated everywhere. It doesn't matter if they are guilty, or even just guilty of being black. Systemic racism, bias racism or what have you. I am hated every where I go just because of the color of my skin. I do realize that I am the only black person here defending Nigerians because I myself, my family see hate in our lives everyday and it really is a shame because looking through white eyes, it very easy to point the finger and say, Nigerians this and Nigerians that.

I can never expected to be a majority here. Just look around you. How many black people do you see speaking up about injustice?

Black is dirty. We are evil, criminals. Black is bad. Just like the Asian guy said. Hey Asian guy, I know you probably won't read through 37 pages, but if you did. Tell me again about the preponderance of black people incarcerated. Tell me again how bad we are, maybe if I read the response enough times from the people here, I may just start to believe it.
You might have some points. However it is Nigerians we were discussing, and who have this bad reputation here. I have never heard of an African American trafficking narcotics here.
My point is black is black. Nigerian, American, Brasilian, the hate is towards black, period. Nigerians don't have a bad reputation here. It's the racist Asian and white people who have a racist attitude towards black skin, they are the ones with the bad reputation. It's only Asians and whites who say Nigerians are bad. Just listen to the over 60 Asian guy who said "They simply are criminally predisposed.", or "I am Asian and I am ALWAYS on alert mode when approached by someone from Nigeria.", or "When I see a Nigerian on a Harley or a Benz, my first thought is guess how it was paid for."

So now I am supposed to ID myself as American so I am not lumped in with all the racists who are afraid to admit that they are racist.
As a matter of fact, I have a Nigerian friend who thinks most Nigerians in Cambodia are up to no good....

You are the only one trying rather unsucessfully to make this point which is wildly off topic.
The topic is about a NIGERIAN guy who got caught smuggling dope; Not about Brasilians, Yanks, or anyone else of African heritage.
The Dude got fucked because he was doing a crime, not because of nationality or colour.

Not sure about here, but at one time all black americans in Africa were assumed to be CIA.
lol. Well I s'pose that's one step better than automatically being branded a crim.

The Christian half of Nigerians seem to be right up there with Arkansaw snake handlers in terms of flogging the devil and generally getting worked into a lather about their relationship with the almighty.
If the Muslim Nigerians are as strong in their faith as the Christians it does not augur well for the future.
