British English Teacher TIMOTHY JAMES SEARLE Dies in Phnom Penh, 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.

Most English teaching books in Cambodia are printed in American English although they mostly originate from Cambridge, UK. NB: not sure if originate is the correct word.
do you teach your pupils the correct spelling of colour or neighbour?

I'm retired now, but I previously taught English for 6 years here in Cambodia. I'm English, so no matter what book we were studying I would use the English spelling.
I can't recall it ever being an issue.

Dying in your 30s is tragic, as is your 40s, sympathy dissipates from there. 50s, is such a shame. 60s, is too soon. 70s, a good run. 80s, a life well lived. 90s? That's a fucking hell of a ride.

RIP
