Dead Man Found Lying on Phnom Penh Sidewalk

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.

A sad end to a young man. Drugs can really mess people up. RIP
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I think in a lot of cases they don't even realise what the drugs are doing to them. I have known normal, sane people become unrecognisable. RIP

And nowadays, God only knows what they're actually taking vs. what they think they're taking. We see a lot about how Chinese (pseudo)-fentanyl filters into the the US via Mexican cartels but it would stand to reason that fentanyl-ish products drip down into SE Asia a whole lot, too.
