Whatzup - Breaking Cambodia Covid News on Outbreaks and Lockdowns

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 inter provincial travel was smooth again. Two checks on the way.

One at the Kratie - Stueng Treng border, name recorded + temperature check.
One at Ratanakiri border, covid quick test (free of charge), name recorded. Not everyone is tested, up to the people working there.

Did two trips in five days without any problem. Only problem is finding a driver. Both times I rented the whole car for myself. Ratanakiri - Phnom Phnom (and vv) 350.000 riels one way (7-8 hours, 550 km trip).
