Re: Kampot to Host Sea Festival 2019
Yes, I remember well road 48 was repaired for last years sea festival, now it's starting to deteriorate once more. From road 4 onto Kampot road 3 at the bottom of Bokor is in a bad state.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

Someone has contacted CEO News to say that certain roads in Kampot are already blocked along the riverfront tonight, due to crowds of pedestrians and market stalls.
The Sea Festival in Kampot starts officially on Friday, 20 December.

Cambodia’s first Food Street opens in Kampot
Kampot this week opened the first area in Cambodia dedicated exclusively to street food.
Food Street was officially inaugurated Wednesday, offering local delicacies and targeting mostly tourists.
The launch took place just two days ahead of the annual Sea Festival, which this year is held in Kampot. The festival is expected to attract at least half a million tourists.
Kampot’s Food Street will be the first of many, each one in a different province and highlighting the province’s cuisine, authorities have confirmed.
It is a government initiative that aims to lure more tourists to the Kingdom by offering high-quality local dishes prepared with high hygienic standards.
The Kampot version of the initiative features 55 stalls with scrumptious local dishes.
Speaking at the launch, Tourism Minister Thong Khon said Food Street promotes hygiene in the preparation of street treats.

LOLThe Kampot version of the initiative features 55 stalls with scrumptious local dishes.

personally, i find Cambodian street food limited, not tasty and lacking in good hygiene
Now compare that to thai street food, ( and for a fantastic experience the street food held nightly in Pai)
BUT guess we cant compare the two now can we???
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: Kampot to Host Sea Festival 2019
It's very, very, very quiet here.
But today is also a working day, so I suspect tomorrow will be ballistic.

I lived in Kampot all of 2018...I can't imagine 500,000 people hanging out there. Imagine the cleanup effort? Traffic? The power grid?
Glad I moved.
