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.

Sihanoukville lost a legend last night. Tony Jones, the owner of Charlie Harpers Bar was killed in a traffic accident. He was a good friend to many on this forum. Many tears will be shed.
RIP Tony. I was proud to call you a friend and a mate.

It happened between the reservoir and Independence Hotel where the monkeys hang out. That's a real sharp corner and often wet. i go around it a lot as I belong to the gym there. RIP Tony, you'll be missed.

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.
