In Khmer language, we expats are barang, barang are foreigners.
In Khmer language, Chinese and Vietnamese are not barang.

Could we stop referring to Chinese criminals, Chinese car crashes, etc. as foreigners. It's wrong and misleading.

On the other hand, if we're doing it for click-bait, then carry on. As you were.

Anyone who are not a cambodian & staying in Cambodia are considered foreigner....what makes you think that only caucasians are considered foreigners??

Khmer language has an extensive vocabulary, and there are different ways to address a foreigner, all with a slightly different meaning.

Boratey?

He could be from the US and just not know any better. Over 2 million people cross the US border illegally each year and they are considered undocumented citizens. You can see how that would warp anyones senses of foreigner vs not foreigner.
