Not sure if it's down to better coverage but there seem to be a lot of reports recently of violent crimes. A lot more shootings that don't seem to involve Chinese gangs. A lot more chopping. What do other residents think?

if I had to bet, I would say debt collectors (reminders), as it appears too specific to be some random yobs.

but then again we know nothing

Also, what the fuck is this thing? Some kind of DragonBall Z weapon?

I'm guessing this might be what post Covid Cambodia might look like.

That is called a glaive... Technically this is a glaive attack, not a sword attack...

Maybe Guandao attack? It's not a Samurai, that's for sure.

The cynic might imagine the man from the ministry telling the papers to balance up their reporting- there’s no shortage of material, clearly, but there may well be an understandable bias against the Chinese.
For now, the other type of foreigners aren’t increasing their press exposure. That’s a good thing. (?)

On the news report they suggested an ongoing argument between the girls and a relative of the swordsmen (at the end a girl also appeared who was with the gang). Quite a slapstick video. the one with the bizarre weapon was taking the lead although calm about not obviously using his weapon, the very skinny one with a sword kept trying to go in and attack before the lead guy lost patience and started slapping him several times, a process that repeated several times before a little melee at the end and they ran off.
