International Drug KingPin Arrested in Siem Reap

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.

Did he wear that shirt as a dare? He looks like he stepped out of a time capsule coming from the Roman Empire.

Sounds like there is increasing enforcement of marijuana possession laws of late, even for minimal amounts.

Agreed SD, it's getting a little weird up that way lately. I wonder what prompted this sort of crack down.

I hope this is just a Siem Reap thing and temporary. Remember the dude who got busted for 17g? That's probably still ongoing... I think it was on Pub Street.
