Jetski Stupidities in Sihanoukville

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.

Jetski Stupidities in Sihanoukville

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Sihanoukville, Cambodia News: A Chinese national, identified as RAO GUANG, aged 37, rented a jet-ski for 15 minutes at 17:00, but he went way too far out to sea and ran out of fuel. He was sharing the jetski with a group of Chinese tourists and the other members became concerned when he had not returned by 17:30.

As a result, the entire Sihanoukville coast guard was alerted , and they searched through the night. The authorities finally found the missing guy, on the jetski, 20kms offshore along the coast south of Occheuteal beach, borne by winds and tides. Fortunately, all ended well this time, and the guy was safe and sound, but a little thirsty.

My guess is that he planned to ride the jetski all the way back to China and keep it, but foolishly didn't realise the fuel wouldn't last that long.

The thread should be titled: "Chinese Jetski Thief Rao Guang Rescued On Way From Sihanoukville To Guangzhou".

I'm guessing he made it this far FROM China, and ran out of gas right before reaching the Cambodian shore.

Isn't that the sampeah level you use for parents and teachers?

Was he rescued by a TEFLer?

Is there one that can still afford to stay in Sihanoukville?
