American tourist, ANDRES PINO, Arrested for ATM Attack

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.

I'd imagine encountering some MS13 hombres with or without a 13 tattoo might be tricky.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I think just meeting some MS13 killers would be a bigger problem than having a 13 tatted, as it's used by many other areas of pop culture.

Not only tattoos. Mara Salvatrucha 13 members wear Nike Cortez. Rival gang Calle 18 members wear Adidas Concha (Adidas Superstar in other parts of the world). So wearing the 'wrong' sneakers in the 'wrong' part of town can get you in serious trouble.
