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 might also add, the poor girl was left on the floor for a good 2 hours before someone decided to cover her up.

You can send it to me via PM, and if it's too graphic, we'll put it in the Darknet News section.

Why would you even need to add the photo to that story? The woman is dead, but you asked for the photo, does it add to the content, like it somehow explains something?

You only have to read my initial post ,it was a simple normal RIP with a well known quotation from John Donne, it was respectful to the deceased. So I'll ask again, "Why would you even need to add the photo to that story? The woman is dead, but you asked for the photo, does it add to the content, like it somehow explains something"?

Why would you need to quote John Donne's words? The woman is dead, your quote doesn't add to the content and neither does it explain anything.

People as philosophically weird as you really grind my gears. They want their inane and senseless quotes recognised whilst insisting that their fragile souls be caressed and babied.

The photo reinforces the legitimacy of the reported incident! That's why it was added!

Does my showing a little respect to a deceased young woman need to be explained to you?

In my mind, the photo adds something to the topic in this case, because someone who was there said that the poor woman was left lying there for hours for people to gawk at. If you look at the photo you can see exactly what this implies - not even a rag over her face and nobody near her. It's poignant and is telling us something. I couldn't say what exactly. She is all alone. Sad end to a sad life ?
