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.

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

13 October 2017
An old woman was killed instantly yesterday morning when she was struck by a minivan while walking along the side of National Highway 4, O'Bapang Village, Oukuknanhheng Commune, Preynop District, Preah Sihanouk Province.
The driver attempted to escape with the vehicle, but he was stopped in the next village where he abandoned the car. Police are investigating.

Damage to the tourist van, and the location of the cadaver would suggest he was on the wrong side of the road, probably overtaking.

That said, many pedestrians here are as inattentive as the car drivers, or won't look, just walk.
