Former Beoung Kok and Borey Kaila Residents Are Marching in Front Of World Bank 's Phnom Penh Office

Phnom Penh: According to Koh Santepheap Daily News, About fifty people from former Beoung Kok and Borey Kaila communities were marching at the gate of World Bank's Phnom Penh office. The march started around 9:40 am on 21 July 2016 in at World Bank office located in along Preah Norodom Blvd. The march was meant to ask for meeting with World Bank's representative about the 100 millions donation to Cambodian government and request the World Bank to find them justice since their case hasn't been settled down.

Protesters were yelling that they were in trouble and suffered from WB's donation to Cambodian government. If WB refuses to help them reach a solution, they will request the removal of WB from Cambodia.

The article's title says ធនាគារពិភពលោក (World Bank) and within the article itself it repeatedly says ធនាគារពិភពលោក.

Google translate translates
ធនាគារពិភពលោក as World Bank, searching ធនាគារពិភពលោក in Google brings up a wiki page on the World Bank in Khmer and links to the Khmer World Bank website, image search gives image of the World Bank logo. Etc.

Why did you translate it as Asian Development Bank?

Big mistake IMO.
