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.

I fully expected the story to conclude by saying the snake was cooked & eaten :)

Maybe it wasn't an edible snake ?

Almost all snakes are edible. Cambodia has one or two that are poisonous and venomous, or so my neighbor tells me.

Pythons get special treatment here, most other species get the chop and pot.
