Flood alert and heavy rains for some provinces.

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.

Floods hit National Road 58 in Banteay Meanchey
Authorities in Banteay Meanchey province yesterday said that recent rainfall has caused flooding along National Road 58 in Svay Chek district.

The floods have led to a 70-metre stretch of the road in the district’s Svay Chek commune to be off-limits since it is under 0.15 to 0.20 metres of water.

Commune chief Pok Lon yesterday said that authorities are using excavators to deepen the roadside for the water to flow away from the road.

Svay Chek was always a swamp when it rained.
