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.

And she is a very lucky lady. No-one should have to live with a person that is capable of doing that sort of thing to another person.
Everybody in the world is capable of murder and equally despicable actions.

Everybody in the world is equally capable of the most high acts of kindness and altruism.

Its kind of a big part of the human condition.

So, a guy snuffing out another person's life because it's inconvenient that she's pregnant is, well, just another day on planet earth?

This case is extreme, a display of utter contempt for life -- in this case, one life and another to come. So rolling up all murders into one neat "everybody does it" cliche means we should, oh, I don't know, turn our heads and move on?

Phnom Penh, Cambodia Breaking News: Police in the morning of July 28, 2019 sent a Chinese national to court on charges of murder under Article 199 of the Penal Code and intentional violence.
The perpetrator, Yang Yang, a 28-year-old Chinese national risks life imprisonment.

Police said in court that they tracked the suspect by identifying the RX330 white car that he drove to dispose of the body. He had borrowed it from another Chinese man, Jiang Qing Hua, saying that he had to take friends to the airport.

Got to agree, sometimes it seems like every other Chinese thug with enough money for a plane ticket has made his way over here.

UPDATE
Chinese Man Who Murdered Pregnant Girlfriend and Burnt her Body has Sentence Reduced to 10 Years
Image
Cambodia News, (Phnom Penh): The Phnom Penh Municipal Court of Appeal on March 15, 2023, announced the verdict on the appeal of a Chinese man sentenced to 15 years imprisonment in connection with murder and concealment of the body. Defendant Yang Yang was arrested on July 23, 2019 at THE PARK WAY Company on Street 273, Sangkat Toul Sangke I, Khan Russey Keo, where he was employed.
Image
Reminder: The defendent was found guilty of stabbing his mistress to death because she told him that she was pregnant and it was too late for her to have an abortion. After the murder, the killer went to the market and bought a large suitcase which he used to transport the woman's body to a deserted spot, where he doused it with petrol and set it on fire. He then ran away to China, before returning to his job in Cambodia.
Image
Following the Chinese man's arrest in 2019, the Phnom Penh Municipal Court on August 25, 2020 convicted him on charges of murder and hiding the body. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison and ordered to pay $ 50,000 in compensation to the victim's family. However, he then appealed.

Yesterday, the Phnom Penh Municipal Court of Appeal ruled to uphold the original guilty verdict against the defendent Yang Yang, but the judge decided to reduced his prison sentence from 15 to 10 years. (He was sentenced in July 2019.)

Image
The victim was named Miao Xi-aolin. She was eight months pregnant and was murdered one week after her 27th birthday.
