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 vaguely recall some health video saying one should only use oil for deep-frying twice, maximum. Some here use it for a week.
Not entirely correct, there is no hard and fast rule. It depends a lot on the kind of oil used, the food items fried, the temperatures, etc. As a matter of fact, if you look after the oil (strain and filter after use) it can be used many times. When the oil starts foaming or smelling odd, it is time to ditch it.
Sadly, many local businesses use it well past that.
I stopped eating deep fried street food after eating some chicken in pattaya. it took two days before I no longer had the oil on my hands and in my mouth. I hate to think what it was doing inside my body
