Australian Man Murdered in Sihanoukville

According to Australian media, John Edward Thompson, age 47, from Australia, was murdered in the last 24hrs in Sihanoukville. Reports say he was clubbed to death in a robbery. My condolences to his family. If we could only say this was an isolated incident! Sadly Sihanouvkille has an increasing reputation for lawlessness--particularly violent/armed robbery of tourists on the beach and sexual predators. Police must get off their lazy backsides and do something before the local tourism industry in Sihanoukville, Cambodia is destroyed.
