43 Cambodians Convicted of Crimes in the USA & Deported to Cambodia Arrive Today

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.

Speaking of Sri Lanka, a few years ago a SR bloke from a very poor fishing village was sent to market to get some sugar by his wife. As he had no money he wandered to the beach where his mates were working on their fishing boats. One of hem said we are going to Australia do you want to come and he decided that as he would be in the shit when he got home without sugar he said yes.
The boat was picked up near Christmas Island and the occupants were assessed as economic applicants and flown back to SR.
An empathetic officer gave him a box of sugar sachets to take home to appease his wife when he finally arrived home a month after setting out for the market. Hope she was happy with his gift to her.
