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.

According to the owner, the people in the house were boiling water on the gas stove in the kitchen, and they were hanging out elsewhere and were not paying attention to the boiling pot in the kitchen, when suddenly they heard an explosion and there was a big fire.

The main trucks are national police but it looks like they hired a couple of private water trucks.

Makes a lot of sense to have a couple of dedicated trucks that can be deployed in a few minutes within their borey. They paid enough for the places after all.

Probably the best equipped truck and best trained crew is the one from Khmer Beverages
