Vietnamese province detects numerous cases transporting Chinese citizens to Cambodia

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.

I think Cambodia is a gold mine for Chinese business of any kind. The safety, environmental, and labour laws make it so cheap. It seems like one of China's old style China.
Yes, I think they've heard a rumour that it is the land of milk and honey with lots of opportunity and freedom relatively speaking.
It certainly seems like the cost of entry into business in cambodia is rock bottom compared to coastal China, China has become too expensive for a variety of small business that is feasible in Cambodia. It's very difficult to do business with arcane regulations and bureaucracy, of course.

These foreign criminals have probably heard that the local police don't know how to deal with them, so they can get away with as much trafficking, extortion, kidnapping and robbery as they like as long as they keep a low profile. Compared to dealing with the People's Police it's easy running for them here. They don't a fuck either, because it's all or nothing and they know they are as good as dead if they end up back in the PRC after committing crimes abroad.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
