Female From Georgia Commits Suicide, Sihanoukville Cambodia

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.

Regarding your hope the photographer was there before anyone else... unfortunately that's unlikely. What's more likely is that the photographer was either a) the person who discovered and reported the body (which I would presume you know who is by now), b) the police who arrived on the scene (which I presume you would already know if it were the case since you're working with them), c) any one of the many observers who crowded around after the police arrived and it became a spectacle (which would not have any information, only rumors they "think" are information).

I think the chances of it being anyone who can offer you more legitimate information is sadly unlikely.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

it is very hurtful to the relatives of deceased to see this stuff.
We all know about Koh Rong, but not everyone does.
best get the word out where appropriate.

the jokes formerly common elsewhere are inhuman.

RIP
