A miracle ? Korean man gets his bag back - and his $22,800.

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.

You can tell from their smart clothes and Patek Philippe watches that those guys don't need the money, they're just thieves at heart.

Clearly, this is a staged event using professional actors that was conducted for purposes of propaganda.

MFI investors. The MFI offices only deal in cash, and they don't much care where you got it most of the time. Some of them do require you to be Catholic though. Also gamblers carry large wedges I believe. Which one is he?
See crook!!!

I've walked around with silly amounts of money on me, but not in a bag. If I had to carry that much around nowadays I'd make sure I was in a car and I'd bring someone heavy along.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
