Cambodia News, (Preah Sihanouk): On December 29, 2019, in Boeung Veng village, Prey Nup district,there was a collective surprise, when a large crowd of people saw large amounts of diesel flowing through a canal along National Road 3 near the town's square. Once they got over the surprise, then everyone grabbed their containers to collect the free oil.

More than 3,000 liters of diesel was leaked from a storage tank in a station adjacent to the canal due to a technical malfunction, according to the authorities. Town officials have not banned people from going to collect the oil, but urged them to be cautious.

Probably cleaned up quicker than spills in N.America.
