Homeless English Teacher MARK JOHNSON & Arab Arrested in Phnom Penh Outside the Royal Palace

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.

He says he's been a teacher there since December 2016, but I find it hard to believe that a teacher at Northbridge would end up homeless like that.

Image
I worked at Northbridge briefly in 2006 (filling in for a friend who had to go abroad for a couple of weeks) and knew the ESL teacher, I think he only worked one or two days a week, so I'm not sure they even employ a full-time ESL teacher there. Anyway, he looks like someone with serious alcohol problems in his Linkedin photo.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

John, please tell me how, what you did over a decade ago, for 2 measly weeks, is even remotely relevant to this case?

Anyway, I don't see him on NB's staff list so who knows.

Pretty big fall from grace if it's true.

Gibbon's arms, when are you going to ever post anything at all relevant or even slightly interesting. Sniping at other posters might amuse you, but nobody else wants to read your constant bickering. You're like the schoolmarm of the forums.

Do you think the cops will ever cart him off?

Northbridge only employ real teachers, not someone who looks like that.
