40 villagers poisoned by contaminated water.

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.

Like I said in another thread: assuming villagers died from contaminated water from a stream close to their village while their jars most probably are full of only a few days old rainwater seems a silly suggestion. Besides, there should be enormous amounts of pesticides in the stream to have an immediate effect. You'd assume people drinking the water would taste that. My bets are on a Bong Thom selling other contaminated products like rice wine, or other stuff, and it's covered up.
