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.

Phnom Penh: The Department of Immigration took a 57 year old German man, UWE BERGMANN, from Beung Prolet Police post at 2 pm on June 28, 2018, for an investigation on his immigration status.

On questioning him, the police found that UWE BERGMANN came to Cambodia on March 17, 2017, through Poipet border, and that he was staying in Cambodia illegally because his visa is expired. He has no money, no job, and he is homeless.

He has been sent to the Department of Immigration to have his case processed.

Is it my imagination or is there a disproportionate number of homeless and visaless Germans in Cambodia?

He looks like he could use some Cologne. And a Hamberg-er.

He was sleeping (more like passed out) in front of the temple supermarket on sok san in siem reap the last couple of days. First time I saw him I thought that famous Scottish bloke from last year somehow managed to get back here.

As in every day, its called travel. While this particular case will go back to welfare, medicare and shelter provided, many other nationalities will go back to nothing.
