Alcohol Sales Banned/No dining-in - PP

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

A little suffering today, for a brighter tomorrow, is always a good investment. Act like children, treated as such. Get the fuck inside until this is fixed!
Relax. Spreading the virus outside is virtually impossible if you maintain some distance, studies show. So a walk in the park won't hurt anyone except your feeling so it seems

Such hysteria, oh my.

Get out in the sun as often as possible, eat well and chances are we will all be fine.

Manslaughter charges for transmission of a virus with a minute fatality rate?

I keep hearing these claims about 30-40% of people having long term health issues after contracting covid, but I’m not seeing it in real life. Are we talking 30% of those who were hospitalized with severe symptoms? I might be able to believe that.
Of the 20 or so people I know who have tested positive for covid, including three in my own household, none have had any symptoms lasting more than a few days, and many of these people aren’t young or in the best of health either.

Definitely the latter rather than the former. A small study of patients at a Sydney hospital indicated 32% here: post482596.html#p482596 This is just one I recall from the Long Covid topic. There may be other results of similar studies out there.

Those claims apply to people treated in the hospital for covid, so the 'heavy cases'

What "studies show" is elimination is a lot better suppression:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/comme ... easons-why

They also show New Zealand as the top country to control the pandemic, admittedly smaller populations have an advantage, but even with taken into account, NZ were ranked #1 with go early, go hard tactics. They had had lock down, with people stopped in transit and checked for travel validity. Borders were closed immediately. The country is not almost back to normal, with crowded sporting events and citizens back to work. And they will continue the hard-line, as shown with their recent declination of passengers from India. Australia have also shown the positive results of level 4 lockdowns, particularly Melbourne, with zero positive results. It took 4 months, as a second wave, by enforcing home confinement, travel restrictions and and closing stores and restaurants. It might have been easier had the country gone hard, early. "Go hard and go home" could have been the slogan (Aussies get it).

Meanwhile the la-di-da, park-pootling, countries continue to struggle and the mutations have taken advantage of the weak-minded approach.

Vietnam were also high on the list until some illegal workers from Cambo returned recently. KOW seem to be adopting China's authoritarian hard-line approach which seems to have been very effective however, "Beijing has aggressively tried to manage public perceptions about its handling of the disease" and were not included in the study, for that reason.

My research is based on facts. Be careful if you wanna start professing it's fine, get out there, enjoy the sunshine; they won't like that here. That'll be tagged fake.

Neighbors Report Rowdy Picnic

Cambodia News, (Kandal province):Kandal Provincial Police Quick Information and Reaction Team is honored to respond to people who asked not to be named. The anonymous source reported on social media to the Kandal Provincial Police: " Khanty went to his uncle Won's fish pond because there was a drinking party on the 14th and 16 in Saang district, they are now drinking and singing karaoke without stopping."

Immediately after receiving this information, with the indication of the Information and Quick Reaction Team of Kandal Provincial Police Commissioner, Police Inspector Saang district ordered the Talon Administrative Police Station to investigate the above case, which was reported by the villagers.

Image
As a result, on April 16, 2021, at 18:15, the Talon Administrative Police Force went to the location of the fish farm, looking for Vong Vorn, male, 53 years old, residing in Veal Treng Village, Kandal province. The man said that on April 16, 2021, at 2:00pm, he ate with his children and younger brother. There are 6 of them who live in Veal Treng village, Talon commune together. The fish pond is far from the village and the children and younger siblings come to eat together a little, sing and play until 17:00 when they stopped and his son and brother went home.

After that, the police educated him and made a contract to stop drinking alcohol together to prevent Covid-19 outbreak as directed by the Ministry of Health.

In Cambodia, a country where 10,000 riels will make the police turn a blind eye, 10k USD will make them round up someone for you and 500k USD buys you impunity the 'aggressive Chinese approach' might not work that well. My 2 cents.

China, Australia and China are well organized countries. Cambodia is chaos. Now even more than before. Have you seen how it all panned out the last weeks? The closure of roads, the curfews, the ban of alcohol sales, the (non) announcement of the lock down, the way the lock down has been implemented so far..... it's been chaos all over.
