First New Cardamom Road Ready

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.

It's fantastic, now you can transport thousands of pangolins a day compared to the handful of half rotten starving ones that were coming out of the forest before. It's far more efficient and is eco-friendly and shown to cause little suffering.

Took a nice drive though the Cardamons about 3 years back, nice change of scenery from the normal flat land dry
or flooded rice fields, but that road calls for another road trip back though there.

Need to crank up the big bike and get down there before it's F.U.B.A.R'd, run those curves.
Definitely

"There will also soon be the opening of National Road 10 linking Samlot, Battambang to Koh Kong"

Fingers crossed its a decent tarmac road.
