Expat's SunTours Boat Goes Up in Flames in Sihanoukville, Cambodia

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.

This article from kohsantepheap states that, contrary to the regulations, there were no fire extinguishers on board the tourist boat. They also note that it was extremely fortunate that the fire burnt itself out without spreading to other boats docked at the pier.

It is a tad suspicious, if the captain was onboard and it was going to burn you would have thought it was him that unmoored it when he saw the fire was out of control. Also, five fire extinguishers? The thing always looked like a top-heavy deathtrap, anyhow.

Will be interesting to view this video in a couple of years to see the great progress that is made by the invasion of the coastal areas by H.E.s new friends.
