Football Team of Fake Monks

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.

Holding on to their nuts, it looks like they're lined up to on the edge of the penalty area to block a free kick.

Kind of related, but not really.

In the nineties getting a train to Chang Mai from Hua Lamphong I noticed a young monk from behind sitting crossed legged in robes with his head bowed deeply almost into his lap. As I came up alongside I expected to see him in prayer or reading - his eyes were open wide, his face fixed hard, his fingers working feverishly at a Gameboy.

Yes, I got approached by one of them a couple of weeks ago. I didn't find out how good his English was, but he did understand "fcuk off". Works with Mormons too.

4 out of 12 by my count, but that's obviously subjective.
