Foreign Man's Body Found on the Rocks on Koh Rong Sanloem

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.

Sea, rocks = damage. Wait for autopsy.
Don’t listen to Chinese whispers.

You've got your islands mixed up.

Like many on here, should we assume you have never been to either of them ? :)

I have been to all of them long before they were resorts, circa 1991 and the years that followed *in full disclosure not in recent years*. Recall the Mayaquez incident? I went to Tong island and the others looking for the remains of the Marines, and interview former KR cadre that still live on those islands.

Look in the archives here, there have been many deaths on Rong and this one that bears the similar name. I just like to joke, Wrong Island for either of them.

Good to hear, normally people who use the term Koh Wrong, have never actually been to the island & know very little about it :)

Were there any westerners living on the islands back in early 1990's ?
