Australian ROSS DUNKLEY (Former Owner of Phnom Penh Post) Arrested in Drug Bust in Myanmar with Meth

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.

My guess is supremely insecure, poorly educated, and closet-type.

If Bron is such a drug hater, he must have the worst music collection on the planet


damn those junkies who have entertained us over the last 5 decades (and more)
The last 5 decades of decadence, with a music that reflects the collapse of Western civilization.

I listen to:

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Franz Schubert
Muzio Clementi
Johann Christian Bach
Gioachino Rossini
Carl Maria von Weber
Ivan Dzerzhinsky
Nikolai Miaskovsky
Aram Khachaturian
Sinn Sisamouth

How about you?
Both of your lists contain several drug users and addicts. Congrarulations
Too weird to live, too rare to die

I suspect, a name like Delron, may attract enough prison time to be deported.....

Myanmar Times Co-Founder Ross Dunkley Jailed for 13 Years in Drugs Case
By Moe Myint 7 August 2019

YANGON—After a trial lasting more than a year, Australian national Ross Dunkley, the co-founder of the Myanmar Times newspaper, and his compatriot John Mckenzie, a former IFC and World Bank adviser, were sentenced to 13 years in prison by a Yangon judge on Tuesday for violating Myanmar’s anti-narcotics law.

The two foreigners were apprehended in possession of a large quantity of crystal methamphetamine (or “ice”), marijuana and heroin at Dunkley’s apartment in Bahan Township in June 2018. Five young Myanmar women and Dunkley’s housekeeper and security guard were also arrested and charged at the Western District Court by Yangon police.

The Western District Court’s press officer confirmed that the two foreigners were sentenced to 13 years’ imprisonment while the five women were jailed for 11 years.

The court freed Dunkley’s housekeeper and security guard in July 2018. The five women, aged between 19 and 29, were identified as Ma Hanni Soe, Ma Win Win, Ma Haymar Lwin, Ma Thuzar and Ma Hnin Ei Khine. All seven drug suspects were charged under sections 19(a) and 21 of the anti-narcotics law.
