Police Hunt Down Cambodian Woman Eating Endangered Wildlife with Husband

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.

Come on, all those meats are for sale at markets in the forested provinces every day. Nothing special about it, other than they published a video of it online.

The couple say they had no idea that they were doing anything wrong. At least the outcry surrounding the videos may have helped to raise public awareness about eating wildlife and endangered species.

Cooking videos land couple in hot water
11 May 2018
Phoun Raty, who attended the ministry-convened press conference on the matter, said he and his wife bought the meat and started producing their cooking videos in December last year. The videos were posted on YouTube last month.

“Actually, all I wanted to do was earn a living from the videos. I apologise to the public. I realise now in doing what we did, we actually contributed to destroying our wild life. I had no intention of doing this.

“Besides, the animals were already dead. Also, we only earned $500 for producing the videos and even then, we have not yet been paid,” he said.

Chan Polin, Raty’s wife, said: “I don’t even know what kind of animals or birds we used or their impact on wildlife conservation.

“I bought the wildlife at Preak Phnov and we started filming our videos since December. Now I have already admitted my mistake,” she said.

Sam Arng said the ministry was conducting probes into where the wildlife was purchased. “As of now we don’t know where the sellers sourced the wildlife from. We will continue investigations,” he said.
