Filipino English Teacher Arrested for Pedophilia on 4-Year-Old in Kandal

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.

Interesting, can understand the reluctance to sign if Cambodian, people here are quick to condemn pedos but for anyone else accused of everything hold the judicial system up as corrupt at best. :stir:

Amazes me how many Filipinos 'teach English', the education system in asia has no standards.

One less 'teacher', hope he gets a hefty stretch.

What elaboration could you possibly need? I think it's rather clear what my sentiments are.

It’s not clear whether your implication is that there’s a lot of Filipinos using teaching as cover for child abuse, or whether you’re suggesting Filipinos aren’t qualified to teach English.

The US also imports grade school teachers form the Phillipines, though miniscule compared to nurses.

Amazing right? So amazing that one of their two official languages is English.

[Mod edit: Filipinos] speak terrible English but they use modern slang and have lots of confidence which is enough to fool most employers.

Filipinos teach English all over the world, something Khmers don't/can't do.
