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.

Can somebody tell me why his body was taking to the Russian hospital ? Is it the nearest to his apartment or is there a kind of deal ?
Anyway, RIP.

Bodies always seem to go to Russian Hospital. I guess they have the facilities to store them.

He wasn't teaching English. Dr. Roy was a Science teacher at EWIS. Very well respected. Spoke Khmer and even sang "goo twea bedong" at the school concert while playing guitar. A class act. RIP.

Has anyone still alive ever been taken to the Russian Hospital or is it strictly for dead people?
