Barang punches female staff in the face @ Big Easy

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.

I find that when there's a badly behaved foreigner picking on one of their own (male or female) they'll usually deal with the foreigner pretty swiftly, especially when it's clear that the situation is leading to violence.

In a way it's good that there's usually someone there to film the situation so it can be used as evidence, but I'm often left wondering who would just sit and film it without intervening.
To be fair; it's not illegal to have a screaming match, and he was restrained within a second of escalating to violence

I’m sorry…do we no longer pummel people for this? Hitting a woman like that (a full on honest to god punch) in public would get you beaten a pulp back home.

Hopefully this video follows him for a while.

Fucking wild how that happened tbh, you just know there were 10 backpackers all splayed out on the couches the whole time.
He was apparently arrested immediately afterwards - as per TOF user who also posts here @PSD-Kiwi

Can anyone make out anything that's being said?
Someone on TOF suggested he was angry because he couldn't have ice? :unknown:

I can't hear shit of what they're saying though.

That's only what I heard from a couple of people, no idea whether true or not, it's a damn shame the coward didn't receive the standard mob justice from the local tuk-tuk drivers and motodops.

The moment he set food behind the bar they should have stepped in.

What's shocking is people are busy recording this instead of helping the poor girl

It shouldn't be shocking; it's the world we live in

I do agree he should have been stopped; on first viewing I had assumed that they both worked there as they were both behind the bar
