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.

Cintri says it is owed up to $20M by Phnom Penh residents

Fri, 16 September 2016

Niem Chheng

Phnom Penh’s much-maligned waste-collection firm Cintri yesterday used a meeting with City Hall to ask for help in collecting between $10 million and $20 million in unpaid fees it says it’s owed by residents in the capital.

Speaking after the meeting – which was held to discuss the company’s performance – Cintri manager Ith Chenda said the municipality should push customers to pay and help find a solution, complaining many simply ignored the waste-management charge.

“According to the agreement, the company will collect, transport and clean, while the authority has the responsibility to encourage people to pay the fee,” Chenda said.

What is so hard for cintri to understand ? Place large ''jumbo '' commercial size bins around the city and people WILL put their rubbish in it. There is one at the ''white building '' and it is always full, and occasionally one at the old market, again, always full.

Doesn't Cintri bill via EDC bills? How are they not getting paid?

Here's proof that the system will work,,, if Cintri would only do their part and empty them.

Seriously Cintri is not doing a good job keeping the city clean. Almost everywhere you go in the city, you will see a pile up of trashes. BTW, can't really blame them, some Cambodians are really stupid and don't fu*king care about the environment. They just litter everywhere. Come to Phnom Penh after water festival bolueeleh.

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.

i dont dont really like PP, i always end up staying near the bar streets, eating at almost all the same restaurants near the riverside, near central market or aeon mall, been to all the touristy spots, palace, museum, killing fields etc, nothing much to do there except mongering at night time :cry:

I generally don't really like Phnom Penh city too, but this is where my work is. So I have to stay. Hopefully i can move back to Sihanoukville soon. Hit me up when you are in town next time.

BTW, I want you to come after the water festival, because I want you to see how dirty the city is after three days of the festival.

Why not take some photos of the same places in PP before and after the festival and then post them? We will all see then.

But, to be fair, if there's nowhere to put the rubbish it will stay in the street. Ideally there would be plenty of bins... and of course lots of portable WC
for the crowds also. :stir:

How does it prove the system works? How many of the residents who use that dumpster pay?
That's the issue here, not the fact that people just throw waste all over the place.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
