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.

Three thousand bottles of liquid ketamine might way over 30 kilos but the actual active content would be about 5- 10% of that.

@ 50mg/ml x 3000 x 10ml vials = 1,500,000mg = 1500g = 1.5kg of the drug.
