I told them to bring me to hospital but they called my landlord instead who arrivend after 40 minutes.

I've lived in places where, if someone is unconscious in the street, there's a better than average chance nobody will do anything about it. It's not that they're deliberately uncaring or callous, it's a self preservation thing, nobody wants to get involved and draw attention to themselves. Is it a thing in Cambodia too?
Mr X finds a guy on the street so moves him so he he doesn't get run over ...Police show up.. ask who moved him.. everyone points to X... X is now involved and on the police radar... police suspect X is responsible somehow for the person being unconscious because 'why else' would they get involved if he didn't cause it... unconscious guy wakes up and realises he might be able to scam some compensation money from X ... X now wishes he carried on walking and let the guy get run over...
Think this has nothing to do with C-19. This is " Culture". But we know! ..... and spend our lifes here........ This encounter fuxed me up BIG TIME!
I'm sure the Buddha is looking on, gleaming with contentment.
Anyway, most civilized countries have 'good samaritan' laws that protect those who help those in need.

Buddhists don't really pray to any lord.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
