Around 9.30 today only one place has cleared up and left. All the beachside/beach blocking places at the far end are still there with no sign of moving.

They will all have to go, surely. The expensive hotels with bars and restaurants on the beach won't fare too badly as long as they can put loungers out. However the risks of theft from the child vendors will probably increase with the beach being open. At the moment there are lots of massage ladies and only the odd sunglass vendor. If those horrible kids start turning up there will be problems I think.

Sihanoukville’s Occheuteal is beach spared, for now

Vendors on Sihanoukville’s Occheuteal beach got a last-minute reprieve yesterday as their scheduled eviction was postponed for the second time in less than a week.

Sihanoukville City Governor Y Sokleng, who only Monday evening had re-confirmed the eviction would go ahead as scheduled, said yesterday that he was woken up at 5am by a phone call from Preah Sihanouk Provincial Governor Yum Min notifying him of the postponement.

Min said he was delaying the evictions until he had returned from a trip outside the province. He was unable to say when he would return, but suggested there may be still more discussions of the beach vendors’ fates when that happens. “I do not know yet, but there will be fresh discussions about it when I come back,” Min said.

Evictions to begin next week, starting with Ochheuteal according to this:
The eviction of businesses along Sihanoukville’s popular O’Chheuteal Beach will begin as early as Monday, after the provincial governor returns from a trip abroad, an official said on Thursday...
Although businesses on O’Chheuteal will be first in the firing line, Mr. Seng Nguon said, provincial officials would also meet next week to discuss the fate of businesses on O’Tres.
“Even though it will happen any time after the 20th, the first area is O’Chheuteal at Ariston. Then the provincial governor will hold discussions looking at the other beach,” he said...

Maybe the Prov Gov's gone to China to see how much money he can get when he sells the land to the Chinese! :facepalm:
