The Cambodia Daily

"The Cambodia Daily" is Cambodia's first English-language daily newspaper, as of 2008 the second is The Mekong Times. It was started in 1993 by Bernard Krisher, an American journalist. Krisher hired two young and relatively inexperienced journalists, Barton Biggs and Robin McDowell, as the paper's first editors. The first issue was published in 1993, and the paper has published ever since. It is printed in Phnom Penh in an A4-size format and is delivered six days a week, Monday to Saturday, with the Saturday edition a full-color "Weekend" magazine. The Monday to Friday editions are black and white. "The Daily" has access to many major wire services (Associated Press, "The New York Times", "The Washington Post") and has a staff of Cambodian and foreign journalists covering local and national news. A daily section in Khmer language carries articles translated from the main English-language section. An international edition is available by annual subscription for US$200; each weekly edition compiles the staff-produced content from the previous week.
