Chinaville Water supply

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.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

well the end of the article certainly is! that lake has not been used as a local water supply for some years now which is just as well as it ran dry just 2 years ago....go back to 2011 or 12 when it was still in use and it ran dry then and anyone on town water rather than well water had to order water tankers to deliver water...

meanwhile as the report says the water comes from up near the waterfall where there are much larger lakes than this one ...

Its right behind Independence beach and unless they whack all the trees down will make a good shaded area for tourists ...but good chance high rises will ring the lake.....

The Environmental Impact Report must say there would be no effect on the environment and the fish [ ing ] in the lake ? But I still wonder how a hard or soft title can be issued for land under the water. Would the Navy have send underwater divers to measure the land before filling began ?

It's been coming from Kbal Chhay for a while now as I remember the pipe broke not so long ago. Hopefully pulled from the upstream side of the resort thing or it'll be 50% tourist piss
