A man drank poison as his wife refused to sleep with him

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 think virufan is a general pest control chemical. Pretty sure it's also used for insects like termites.

I imagine it's a particularly nasty death. Probably burns your insides out.
Bad choice. :facepalm:

Yes!
No matter how many suicides I hear about or see first-hand, my gut reaction is confusion and sadness. It always seems to me that it would be better to struggle or fight against the predicament that predicates the suicide. The only suicide I could understand was a terminal illness assisted suicide case of a friend and it still tears me apart to think about her.

Suicide due to lack of mogambo seems ridiculously tragic to me, but then again I have a myopic and subjective opinion on the matter; I still resent my mother for trying (although she gets an A for effort).

Then what do I know about wanting to die--the first time I even heard of the term “deathpat” was on the Cambodia forums.

RIP. The wife wasn’t worth it, me thinks.

If it's similar to the death by pesticide that Chinese women seem to prefer as a suicide method - it would be a horrific death. It normally takes several days of agony to die.
