Search On for Missing Woman AMELIA BAMBRIDGE on Koh Rong, Cambodia (RIP)

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.

Another poseur?
Tea Vichet did not find her.
Fishermen did, and alerted authorities.

Also, the reported 48k's seems to be incorrect - the quoted co-ordinates and other reports indicate further.

I believe in the interest of closure that there needs to be a detailed forensic autopsy completed on Amelia, water sample from lungs, any other fluid samples, DNA analysis and full screen toxicology including blood, urine and brain.
The family deserve to know without any doubt what happened to their daughter otherwise they will never be able to fully grieve and hopefully one day come to an acceptance of what tragic event took their daughter from them.
Maybe that crowd funding exercise and a bit of assistance from the UK foreign office could go a long way in getting Amelia home to the UK.

RIP Amelia. :(

Excellent news. Nothing gained by speculating what an official autopsy will find, but I too feel there's been some foul play. Amelia is said to be conscientious and careful, one clue being her bag that showed how well prepared she tended to be. I am more confident of a thorough investigation now that the CPU is involved.
