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.

Really??? When a tiger chases a person they don't miss. Even if it is Usain Bolt. And this tiger could not catch multiple people.

That is why I said highly unlikely. That is besides the fact that even trained tracker dogs have not found traces of tigers in Cambodia for years.

And the experts agree with you guys!

"Five men in Roleab village in Pursat province reported having spotted a tiger at a cashew plantation on Wednesday, although experts believe the animal was actually a leopard after examining a piece of a tree branch it had bitten, officials said Thursday."
