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.

S’ville street sellers told to stop anarchist trade-

Post by phuketrichard »

One of the things many many locals and tourist like, are the street vendors>
will this extend to the rest of the country?
Preah Sihanouk provincial administration officials have vowed to act against operators of more than 100 unauthorised stores and carts in the town after they were accused of affecting the environment, public order and space.

Lim Pheaktrey, a municipal hall official in charge of public administration and environment officials have told the vendors that they are not allowed to sell merchandise on the streets.
Pheaktrey said: “By order of the Preah Sihanouk Provincial Administration, there must be urgent action from June 17, to stop such anarchist trade. If they don’t follow orders, we will confiscate the carts and materials and keep them temporarily at the provincial hall.”

He said the vendors have had an impact on the public and tourists because they don’t dispose of rubbish properly and have poor sanitation practices.

So while they're cleaning up the street vendors and carts, why stop there? Why not clean up all the gambling houses and all the vice that goes with that. The Wuhan virus makes it an ideal time to change the image, reputation and target tourist for the place for the long term.

This is a fairly common, ongoing refrain, year in year out.

How sad, but in the PRC owned SHV should we be surprised. Yet another charming part of the country removed unnecessarily, a bit like the vendors in Bangkok which were a loss but these guys are just people trying to scrape a living together after the wilful destruction of the place they once knew as their home.

I mean as far as I was aware the "people" who didn't dispose of their garbage correctly and had poor sanitation practices was the Chinese owned and operated casinos leaking shit and trash into the sea. :facepalm: :facepalm:

Um, let's not kid ourselves and pretend Khmer are leaders at disposing of trash properly, in Sihanoukville, PP, or anywhere.

Change of heart from Sihanoukville authorities:

Sihanoukville Authorities Bow to Public Pressure, Reverse Street Vendor Ban
Lay Sopheavatey 23/06/2020 3:26 PM
After a week of angry criticism from the people of Sihanoukville, Governor Y Sokleng** has relented and instead chosen to negotiate with street vendors.

**CEO News Fact check: The present governor of Sihanoukville province is not Governor Y Sokleng, but Governor Kuoch Chamroeun, the former Kampong Cham provincial governor, who was assigned this new position in July 2019, after former Preah Sihanouk Governor Yun Min resigned following the fatal collapse of a building under construction in the Sihanoukville city center.
