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.

If you want to make a claim on insurance you will need a police report. This will be difficult as it will cost you time and money and it will be an unknown document.
They always ask for a "fee" and unless you read Khmer you will not know what the document says.
Good luck with your endeavours.

^ The Tourist Police produce police reports for foreigners in both English & Khmer, yes some may ask for a small donation but not always.
