Tell em they're dreaming. That part of the beach will be worthless soon if they don't control the sewerage.

Is the sewage problem getting worse ?

Choppy seas mean smaller turds

Good fishing for trouser trout.

While the demolitions continue, it remains unclear who will be eligible for compensation.

Beach Buildings to be Destroyed
Structures considered to be encroaching on state-owned beach areas in Sihanoukville will be demolished, according to a letter sent on Sunday from the Minister of Land Management to the Committee for Cambodia Coastal Management and Development.

“I will not come again. Please, the Committee for Cambodia Coastal Management and Development, correct what is unusual and lacking. All illegal constructions must be dismantled,” the minister wrote after returning from a weekend visit to the coastal city.

Provincial Governor Yun Min declined to comment about the proposed demolitions, saying he was busy before hanging up on a reporter.

Seng Lout, the Ministry of Land Management spokesman, declined to comment yesterday, saying he was not involved with the minister’s weekend beach visit.

The move to clear Sihanoukville’s beaches is part of a much larger plan to beautify Cambodia’s coastal regions, officials say.

The more infamous ones, JJ's, Sessions and the Dolphin, plus immediate neighbours, have already been part demolished with new metal framed buildings going up behind them, and new structures all along the rat run behind the bars to the public square. Not much movement happening in the block with Khin's shack and the table renting places. Noticed that the rough seas we've had has done a lot of the work further up by the old base and Chivas, looks to be rapidly disappearing. The wall of the base is just lumps of rubble.

i think the owner of Sessions bar isnt bothering rebuilding according to his facebook status the other day

That land management guy is a Lout. The guy with the spray can seems to have the most power in that huge group of bureaucrats.

The SHV land management director built himself a totally illegal resort in Otres. Not only that but he built it overlapping other LM hard titles properties...

Some quality block work at Porky's, straight rows of cinder block, only one not using brick. This you Jamie?
