32 US Embassy Workers Fired for Sharing Underage Porn in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

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.

Stay tuned.

I can't speak for Cambodian judges or speak on Cambodian law. But as a general rule of international law, there will be diplomatic immunity for something like this and embassy workers can't successfully sue an embassy. The US government isn't subject to Cambodian labor laws. And that's how it should be. The Cambodian embassy in Washington DC can similarly fire whoever they want without fear of being sued in an American courtroom.
