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.

Cambodia News, Phnom Penh: At 5:00 am on June 19, 2020, in Stung Meanchey II, Meanchey district, a 15-year-old male was attempting to climb into the second-floor of a villager's house when he suddenly fell to his death.

The young man, who was known to have a drug problem, had just left a correctional facility a few days before the accident.

According to the source, the boy was climbing into the house when the owner of the house saw him, and shouted out that he was being robbed. This frightened the young man, and he lost his footing and fell to the ground. He died on impact.

After the incident, authorities inspected and recorded the incident, and then gave the body to relatives for a traditional ceremony at Wat Chbar Ampov.

Sad loss of a young troubled life.
My entire life can be summed up in one sentence:
"Well that didnt go as planned".

How would you react to someone attempting to break in to your house? Would you make him a cup of tea? I personally would yell and scream like a crazy person and show him the exit is the same way he entered.
