Cambodian News And Current Updates

By Zelma Hurley


Daily broadcasts consist of different stories ranging from bad news to good news. Everyday, there are killings, crimes, terrorism and violence, and a lot more hurtful reports. However, there are still good ones that put smiles to people and warm their hearts. There are different information networks in different countries. They have access to both local and international news with the help of the satellite.

Cambodia is accelerating economically these days. They have beautiful spots that have contributed to their booming tourism industry. They also have information agencies that keep them up to date with what is happening with the world. Cambodian news is a mixture of local and international news delivered either in English or in their native tongue.

They are able to attract a great number of tourists every year to visit the place. Siem Reap, its capital city, is also rich in commercial and business. The people there get to have their businesses like boutiques where their unique styles of fabrics are sold. Also, they have great food. Their hospitality is also one of the most attracting factors that kept their tourist industry alive.

In the headlines of most of their newspapers and news networks is the coming of the first lady of America. Reportedly, Michelle Obama will visit Japan and Cambodia in hopes of sending a message to the people about the importance of education especially for girls. The number of uneducated and illiterate girls has become very alarming.

Another striking information in Cambodia is the increasing HIV cases in a small town. Reportedly, an unlicensed physician has injected and reused some medical equipment which are contaminated with the virus. There had been more than two hundred cases recorded related to the incident. This is a sad irony because the government and the health agencies are making extensive efforts to prevent the spread of the virus.

Another report is about the case of malaria. It has been reported that the victims of the disease have become immune to the drug called artemisinin. They are still finding ways how to cure the patients who have malaria. The same case is experienced in some areas of Myanmar and India.

Although the country has been making progress economically mainly because of tourism, agriculture, and commerce, the threat of poverty remains to some people especially in remote areas. They are still facing unemployment as well. There is an increasing volume of degree holders but it seems that it is quite difficult to distribute them all to various jobs.

These problems are recurring and are similar to other developing and underdeveloped countries. But there are also pretty good ones that bring hope and inspiration to the Cambodians. They have funny and feature stories that people can read daily in newspapers and in the internet.

The news contains all that is happening in the day to day lives of the people. It is the only way these people become aware of how they can contribute to changes and what actions they need to take as individual citizens. It is a good thing powerful countries like the United States are making efforts to help countries like Cambodia.
