Phnom Penh, Cambodia News: On May 06, 2019, at 03:15 pm, heavy rain and wind caused a large billboard advertisement posted above the National Road 5 to collapse on a man driving along the road on a motorbike at Spean Kpous village, Khan Roussey Keo, Phnom Penh.

I'm taking my own CEO poll... what do you think caused the billboard to collapse?

a) Heavy rains
b) Faulty craftsmanship of supporting structure
c) Faulty materials used in structure
d) both b and c

I'd hazard a guess it was the wind plus b and c.

Not designed or built strong enough.
Wind

It is typical of a lot of structures in Cambodia.

Just recently there were wind gusts where I was. An awning broke. A roof collapsed. A roof blew of a house. Those wind gusts would be unlikely to damage buildings in Australia. In Cambodia they arent built very strong.
