Miss Universe 2015: national costum show

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 vote for Ms. Argentina and the camel-toe outfit. Ms Ireland looks like something you would find on an S&M site. Where is Ms. Cambodia?

Cambodia is not on the list I guess. Cambodia never send its representative to join the international competition while other Southeast Asia countries do. I also wonder why. Because Cambodian girl ain't pretty? Because Cambodian girl ain't tall enough? Because Cambodia girl is poor? Because Cambodia girl is not educated? Need to blame our minster of culture and religion.

The excuse that used to be given is that the competitions were too "racy" for traditional Cambodian culture (many have a bikini part). Cambodians do tend to be short, but there are more and more tall girls in the younger generation and it's not like height issues have ever stopped any other Asian nations from participating. There are a lot of Khmer beauty contests across the world though. Australia, the US, Canada and France have yearly "Miss Cambodia" competitions (bobokanha), in which the winner of each country goes to Cambodia to compete there.
