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.

As a result, the factory workers stopped work to protest and the police were called. The Chinese man offered to pay $500 in compensation for his action if the victims would withdraw their complaint, but the victims have said they want the case to go to court.

so he assaults some Khmer in front of 100's of other Khmer?
one day they will stand up and gut them like fish.
i guess managers do not read history.

i am truly appalled and fearful at what is happening and the potential for chaos given historical precedent.

"i am truly appalled and fearful at what is happening and the potential for chaos given historical precedent"

That is a fear worthy of sharing. The Khmer, a few druggie hotheads not withstanding, are a highly resilient albeit not docile race. Unfortunately when the shit hits the fan, the result is the same old shit everywhere. Nothing's learned, nothing's. changed.

In any case it is a grievous error to mistake their docility as willful compliance.

How about treating them right, let them have a meaningful union and a living wage. If mass productivity is a factor, mass employment may be called for.
