Vietnam protests might mean big money for Cambodia...

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.

Business will be booming if all of those Chinese start investing here instead of Vietnam... maybe China will follow Putin's lead and annex Vietnam to "protect Chinese citizens".

There is also the Western businesses, currently based in China, that are choosing to relocate to Vietnam, for financial and control reasons. Will Cambodia now become a much more attractive option to Vietnam and maybe even Thailand (but that is early days) Despite the tragic events around the 4th of January, Cambodia is enjoying a period of comparative calm.

Yeah, compared to what's happening in their neighbor countries that was nothing. A bad hair day.
