60 People Detained for Drugs in Phnom Penh Night Restaurant

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.

Years ago in Vang Vieng an Australian was running a late night club in a concrete building/bunker at the old air strip when one night our shenanigans were interrupted by AK brandishing law keepers. We were searched with those "holding" (mostly opium) forced to cough up on-the-spot fines. Talking to the Australian a few days later he admitted he'd not paid his dues that month. It was suggested by some the bar owner was actually in cahoots with the law getting a kick backs as these busts seemed to happen regularly.
