No End in Site for Phnom Penh's Flooding Problems

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.

Highest level of flooding on my street last night in the 2+ years we've been here, roughly an inch higher than the previous highs using my concrete measure. That is despite the street being dug up and storm water drains being upgraded. I did post elsewhere that I thought that they'd stuffed up, because the pitch of the pipe was leaving it half full of water.

Had another set of moto dominoes collapse in the wake of a big car being driven way too fast - better than TV.

Last night I walked along the northern side of the Royal Palace, I was on the path as close to the wall as possible (highest point) and it was about 12 inches deep all the way to the corner. This road has also been dug up and had upgraded storm water. :facepalm:
