Cintri Garbage Company to be Nationalized Says PM

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.

I've never seen the garbage piles as bad as this, even during KNY holidays. It really is out of control.

All we need now is for the power cuts to start, the corona virus to spread uncontrollably and for the hot season to start and the pain/pleasure balance of living in this city will become so seriously tilted towards the 'time to leave' area, I think many will (if they can).

Give it a month and we might be there...

I noticed there were no / very few fly's on the chickens and pork being sold just metre's away from all the stinking rubbish, so having a stinking pile of rubbish serves a good purpose.

Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Iron Man grew up in the villages. He probably sees them and feels nostalgic.

Sorry for the tongue in cheek answer. Couldn’t resist.

Waste Collectors for Phnom Penh Being on Board
AKP Phnom Penh, June 18, 2020 --
The Phnom Penh authority is engaging three waste collection firms to ensure effective waste management in the capital.

The news was shared by Phnom Penh Governor H.E. Khuong Sreng in a recent press conference, adding that the companies come to replace the current and only-one licensed trash collector CINTRI.

According to the governor, 3,000 tonnes of wastes are being generated every day in Phnom Penh alone, as it is now home to about 3 million temporary and permanent residents.

Waste management remains in the top agenda of Phnom Penh capital hall, and so far the authority has also established waste management teams to oversee the services.

H.E. Khuong Sreng was positive that once in operation, the three companies will be able to handle the waste in Phnom Penh.
