Stop and Search for Explosives in Sihanoukville 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.

This comes across as very strange to me. Do they often do searches for EXPLOSIVES ? Kind of rubs me as being somewhat funny.

Only two things I can thing of are "fishing" or some kind of tip off on something doing with the upcoming elections.

** note for the mongers out there..... it was "fishing", as in to catch fish. :)

For some reason, the police call these roadblocks an Arms and Explosives Search. They are looking for anything illegal. They do this from time to time in Sihanoukville, but they may be more frequent this month.
It is an occasion to show the population that the police and authorities are doing their job.
