Wouldn't it help if they mentioned the ethnicity of the foreigners they're looking for? They are looking for them after all, so I assume they want the help of the public.
They look Asian but it's difficult to say. I have noticed this a lot lately - maybe it's always been like this but I haven't noticed - that every non-Cambodian is just labelled 'foreign', which of course is technically correct, but didn't they used to state if they were the Chinese or Western types of foreigner?

I automatically assume Chinese to be the nationality when reading "foreigner" in Cambodian crime news.

Same here, seems they generally use the country of origin when describing foreigners whether it's french, italians or thais.

Chinese however are just labeled foreigners.

This screenshot from the Khmer Times identifies the fugitives as Japanese online scammers who escaped during a police crackdown on cybercrimes committed in Phnom Penh by a Japanese gang which was reported on CEO yesterday.

A part of me thinks foreigner is applied when it’s Asian gangs/criminals, especially Chinese, while those foreigners from elsewhere are readily identified early on. Deliberate obfuscation? Not wanting to tarnish the majority of the preferred customers?

Hmm, I would check their Japanese credentials closely.
