Repairs will see Japanese bridge off limits for two years

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.

Why are the Japanese building so many bridges & roads for Cambodia ?

Isn't the highway down to Snooky also paid for by the Japanese ?

There will be a ferry again, that's hilarious. A country that boasts of building the World's tallest building but does not have decent infrastructure like bridges in the capital city. A lot of Siem Riep traffic will go to the bridge further up surely and get there via Sen Sok. Maybe they are waiting until the new flyover is finished on the Russian Boulevard at Hanoi Road before they repair the bridge.
And why repair the bridge, cheaper to build a new one surely?
