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.

Fire at Cobra Gold Karaoke, St 51, Phnom Penh

Phnom Penh: The Cobra Gold karaoke parlor was hit by a fire on the second floor, on the corner of Sts 254 and 51, Sangkat Chaktomok, Khan Daun, Phnom Penh at 11:30 pm on April 20, 2018.

Workers saw smoke coming from the karaoke room and alerted the Daun Penh fire station who arrived with other Phnom Penh fire trucks to put out the blaze.
One fire-fighter was overcome by smoke and had to be hospitalized, but, fortunately, apart from that there were no causalities.

Update: It was later reported that there were two fire-fighters who passed out due to intense heat and lack of oxygen inside the building.

I've gone past there 1000 times and never realized it was so big inside.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
