Australian Save The Children social worker LAURA KNIGHT Dies in a Traffic Accident in Takeo, 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.

Here we have 4 people die and all you can do is have your mind recall some other Australian lady who briefly volunteered at FI and join the dots as if it were the same person? your mind must be addled on an afternoons drinking. what was your point? that if it was that lady from FI it was ok or you just thought you'd denigrate the memory of a lady who by all accounts seems to have done a wonderful amount of good work in Cambodia?
Show me where I suggested it was the same person.

I asked if it was the same NGO.

Can you tell the difference?

I suggest you get your rabies shot and read what I posted. I did not post what you suggest I posted.

This is what I posted:

'Ah, now i get it..that [Mod edit] Am I right?'

Now, please, explain HOW you get that I suggested it was the same person. And how an innocent question denigrates the memory of nay other person.Apart from the rabies. You have the reading comprehension skills of a slow, non-native 5 year old. Or an agenda.

Fine, that's all that was needed, that's what someone else did, too. Just an innocent question, no need for anyone to go crazy, nothing bad implied about any person, as most can see.

RTA fatalities Australia 2017 = 1,247
RTA fatalities Cambodia 2017 = 1,780 (KT article)

Given the population differences involved roads are probably more dangerous than drugs over here.
