Chinese man shoots himself on Sihanoukville beach

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.

What is banning firearms going to accomplish? BTW, those are your words from a previous post.
That’s the joke.
Cambodia banned guns more than a couple of decades ago. There's a monument in the roundabout on the west side of Chroy Changvar bridge to commemorate it.
The problem seems to be related to the new breed of untouchable foreigners that have taken over in recent years.

like most parts of the world; if one really needs a gun then a gun could be procured easily enough, legality be dammed

Some bans seem effective.
Guess when the assault weapons ban ended.

^ Not being from or having lived in the USA, I don't really care; my point was neither pro nor anti gun; more of a general statement

Nuance is verboten to my leftie and rightie American friends it seems
