Well-known British Expat Tony Jones, Owner of Charlie Harper's Bar in Sihanoukville, Dies in a Motorbike Accident, RIP

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.

Sad news, indeed. RIP Tony. And my condolences to his family and all his friends.

One of the few dependable bars in SHV.

NOTE: The FB link has some very graphic photos. The OP should note this in his report, especially if UK family members read this.

I had asked Tony some questions on sihanoukvilleonline about another bar that folded about 6 years ago, he was very knowledgeable of what went on in town.
Sad news & a great loss!

Done. I didn't actually post it for the photo content, just so CEOCambodianews could provide us with a translation. Which he has.

Just got a facebook from a friend saying Tony had crashed his moto into a tree last night and is dead. My friend is reliable and wondered if anybody else has heard this yet?
