Otres beaches are being polluted by duck shit
Next time you're wondering what that shit in the sea is ? It may very well be duck shit if you are at Otres Beach.
Otres duck farms told to stop polluting sea
December 7, 2017
Preah Sihanouk’s provincial environment department and Steung Hav district police have descended on five duck farms in Otres commune, instructing them to relocate after they polluted the sea.
Environment department director Samut Sothearith said the provincial administration gave the owners 30 days to move from the area in November.
The order came after it was found the farms had no proper wastewater management systems and were polluting the sea.
However, the farm owners showed no signs of moving, so police were drafted to help enforce the order.
Mr Sothearith said the owners requested more time to move. “We have instructed the owners of those five farms to move to another place and not to release wastewater into the sea,” he said. “This is a tourist area, so we cannot let them do it any more.”
Mr Sothearith said the farm owners have now been given until the end of March next year to move. If they still fail to comply, they will be forcibly removed.

Wait... most foreigners at Otres are so stoned and the place is such a shit hole, they won't notice they're walking around and swimming in duck shit.CEOCambodiaNews wrote: ↑Thu Dec 07, 2017 9:59 am Mr Sothearith said the farm owners have now been given until the end of March next year to move.
