Woman Electrocuted After Walking on Cable in Sihanoukville

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.

We could spark a battery of puns. Currently I've got the capacity for them, the element of frequency is the key. Generating too many may see some sensor from our magnetic mods, however.

I nearly died stealing and eating batteries in a shop Friday night. I was charged the next morning, and drove home in my volts wagon. Got home and had to make love to my wife because I couldn’t resistor.

Ppl are lazy, but I'll take time to type this for you. Look at where we are at. Most ppl here have no education. This country also has a horrible emergency response time if one is even available in their area.
There are old beliefs that when someone is seriously shocked that burying them can help in two ways. One: help ground them so the electricity will leave their body.
Two: Shock victims of high voltage lines or lightening often have a hole through their foot or their foot blown off from the electric seeking a ground, these victims often survive that day but die a few days later from their internal organs being cooked. It is also thought that burying a shock victim can help dissipate the heat in their body.
Still here, in country...
