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.

Saving Face Led to Suicide

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

A couple days ago, 38 years old Cambodian man was completely drunk then he rapped his 82 years old mother in law who is the only person he shares the house with. This happened in Kampong Thom province. He then was arrested on 27 July 2015. However, because he was ashamed of what he did, so he decided to end his life by hanging himself around 9 pm on 28 July 2015 at the police station.

Not sure whether to laugh or applaud. Maybe both? Who rapes an 82 year old family member? He wasn't saving face, he was tidying up the planet.

i find it quite scary how easily some khmer are willing to take their own life, this situation obviously a lot stronger reason behind it, but there has been quite a few of my friends say they want to die every time they get upset about something, and it scares me because of some of the stories on these forums makes me believe that they could/might actually do it...
im guessing it all has something to do with the Samsara?

Three thumbs up on that. You're a better person than I even if I haven't been a mother or father raper.
