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.

This kind of shit is why I found a new apartment this year with a large generator that kicks on automatically if there is power outage.

These power cuts seem to be mainly in outlying districts of Phnom Penh. Also many in the same districts on different days. Also see the last sentence of the first paragraph, where it says "due to maintenance operations".

So, I don't think this is due to electricity shortages, which would be a bit strange, too, with all the corona-virus shutdowns plus quite a lot of rainfall over the past few weeks in the Cardamoms, where most hydro-power stations are.

I must've still been asleep. But otherwise has been all good imo, unless I sleep too much.
