The Cambodia Daily is a US-based English and Khmer language news site that evolved from a newspaper of the same name that stopped publishing in Cambodia in 2017 due to a tax dispute with the government then led by Hun Sen.[1]
The Cambodia Daily started as an English-language daily newspaper that operated out of Phnom Penh, Cambodia from 1993 to 2017, and was considered a newspaper of record for Cambodia.[2]
The 2017 closure was the result of a dispute with the Cambodian government over a US$6.3 million tax bill, which the newspaper disputed as politically motivated.[3][4] The newspaper ceased its daily print newspaper, but still maintains an online presence.[5]
In 2017, the Cambodian government ordered ISP's to block The Cambodia Daily's website from within Cambodia.[6]
