President Joe Biden coming 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.

President Joe Biden coming to Cambodia.

Post by John Bingham »

I can't say I'm too thrilled, when Obama came in 2012 there was some of the most fucked-up traffic I've ever seen, it took me 4 hours to get home from work. The saving grace is that I don't have any work that whole week so might head out of town.
WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden will make a week-long, three country trip next month for a quartet of summits—including one that could potentially put him in the same room as China's Xi Jinping and Russia's Vladimir Putin.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced Friday that Biden will first travel to Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt on Nov. 11 for the COP 27 climate conference before heading to Phnom Penh, Cambodia, to participate in the U.S.-ASEAN Summit of Southeast Asian leaders and the East Asia Summit. He'll then head to Bali, Indonesia for the Group of 20 summit, a gathering of leaders from most of the world's largest economies.

Seem to remember last time one of these things happened and everyone was going home afterwards, the Chinese weren't happy their Air China 747 wanted to push back but ATC told them to wait for Air Force One to go first. Might be different this time.

wonder if Putin will show up??

PHNOM PENH – U.S. President Joe Biden will come to Cambodia in November to attend the annual ASEAN summits, the White House announced in a press statement issued in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 28.

However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has not responded so far to the invitation to attend the Russian-ASEAN summit, which was sent by Prime Minister HE, Cambodia being chair of ASEAN.

Isn’t HE chair of ASEAN or something this year?

Putin won’t turn up 99%.
