Cambodia's Quarantine and Lockdown Escapees (Regular Updates)

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.

Today we have too be safe, follow the rules and the law, do our part to help prevent this illness spreading to others and ourselves, it's without doubt that the virus Covid19 has effected all our lives and that of the lifestyles we may have had before.

In that situation I would think the people who were visiting and delivering goods to friends and family in quarantine had very little choice not to pay what they were asked.
Surely, it strikes like there was another reason for payment. Because that would be the lowest form of corruption for these security people to do. It is more than morally wrong.
I would like to here a follow up to the story, and see why and what it is all about.
