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.

Surrogate mother bust
The Phnom Penh Municipal Police arrested 15 people related to surrogacy who were together in a house in Sen Sok district. Eleven of the persons arrested on Thursday, Nov. 8 ,are surrogate mothers, two cooks for the ladies, and two unspecified men.

Surrogacy is an arrangement whereby a woman agrees to bear a child for another person. And that other person will ultimately become the parent of the child.

According to National Police, the detainees were sent to the Anti-Human Trafficking Office for questioning.

The law on Surrogacy in Cambodia
Phnom Penh, Cambodia: In November 2016, the Cambodian Ministry of Justice issued a “Prakas” stating that Embryo Transfers for surrogacy are now prohibited in that country. The exact wording is “Surrogacy, one of a set of services to have a baby by Assisted Reproductive Technology, is banned completely”. The single line in the Prakas was both brief and vague… but it has effectively ended surrogacy in Cambodia for Western couples.
