Oknha Paul Blanche-Horgan (CEO of EZECOM in Cambodia) Passes Away

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.

Not wishing to be impolite but I do wonder why in this case, we haven't spent 47 posts wondering about cause of death and speculating about it. Is it just because, as noted, he was a 'top bloke' that everyone knew?

No speculation as he had been getting chemo for nearly a year but the big C wouldn't go away.
