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.

Cambodia News (Svay Rieng): On March 4, 2021, at Kampong Thrach pagoda, Svay Rieng, two suspects were caught red-handed with 287,000 riels that they stole from a monk. The police arrested them immediately.

The suspects, Num Neth, 25 years old, drove a motorbike plate SR1P-6976, and Kroen Vireak, 33 years old, drove a motorbike plate PP1AA-7889. They went to the monk's room and stole 287,000 riels, and then they left the pagoda in a southerly direction.

The monk called the police for help, so they chased the suspects and stopped their motorbikes. The pair were arrested with two motorbikes and exactly 287,000 riels in cash. The police took the suspects to the police station for case preparation.
