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.

Big City Thieves on "Working Holiday" Get Arrested at Yeak Lom Lake

Ratanakkiri, Cambodia News: Three robbers from the big city of Phnom Penh, two women and a man, went up to the province of Ratanakkiri on a "working-holiday". While they were visiting Borey Market and taking in the sights, they stole a bag containing US$1070, which belonged to a woman stall holder at the market.

After their hard morning out stealing, the trio then returned to Banlung town, where they decided to go and spend a relaxing afternoon, picnicking and lying around in hammocks, at the world-famous Yeak Loem volcano lake, which is several kilometers out of the town.

However, the city-slicker thieves underestimated the Banlung cops who had put out an alert for the three, accompanied by a description of them given by the victim of the robbery in Borey. When the criminals headed down to the lake, the police officers stopped them to investigate, and then arrested them for the robbery and took them into custody.
