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.

Cambodia Breaking News (Phnom Penh): On October 01, 2019, at 09:00 am, a 40-year-old Scottish man, ALAN WILLIAM ARCHIBALD WEMYSS, went to the Investigation and Procedure Office at the Immigration Department in Phnom Penh asking for help to send him back to his country.

The Scotsman has visited Cambodia twice, and the last time he arrived was in 2016, through Phnom Penh International Airport. He used to work as an English teacher, but he lost his job, had no money, and was reduced to sleeping on the street. He has also lost his passport, and he cannot get enough money to pay for a new one or to obtain a new visa.
Finally, he decided to go to the Cambodian immigration authorities to ask them to send him home.

The overstaying Scotsman was therefore sent to the Cambodian Immigration Department to follow the legal procedure.

@MarkRobinson will be having a beer/pipe tonight...

This guy needs to go home, no doubt. At least he had his pants on today. The old man who sells his wife's stitched wallets around 172 area mentioned to me a few years ago that this guy was wanted on charges back in Scotland. We shall soon see. Good riddance - it's probably for the best.

No way he asked to be sent home. No way.

A Scot trying to teach English to Cambodians? No wonder he has no money.

That old guy is hilarious. I sometimes have a few beers with him. He lived in USA for about 10 years and did not get on very well. He got fed up and when his green card was up for renewal he declined. He wrote on the form " Bye Bye miss America pie" and returned to Cambodia.

He was arrested while sleeping on Street 51 after someone complained about him the day before.

That does not look like the video of a man who is asking to be sent home to Scotland. At best, they are arresting people and then asking "Do you want to spend the rest of your life in a squalid prison cell or . . . . Scotland?"

It's strange on this and TOF forum that whenever a Scotsman's in the frame the racist dinasaur comments come out. Normally you talk about how the guy has aged or what he is wearing, never about the nationality, why is that ?
Yes sir, I can boogie, I can boogie, boogie, boogie all night long.
