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.

Why do they need $1600? Locals will cremate a body for free if a family has no money.
Because it makes for a hell of a piss up and all the balloon chasers will have a great time.
You have a point doc, but I have known it cost $2000 for a body of a western person to be took to Phnom Penh from Battambang. They also had to do the cremation there because there we're complications returning the body.

Gio liked his beer, but he was not on meth and he was not always homeless.
These last months offered him some uphill battle and in the end he ran out of fuel.
He was a humble man, never asked for help, always talked good about others.
