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.

City Hall looking for new dumpsite

Post by Adam Xie »

Khmer times:

City Hall spokesman Met Measpheakdey yesterday said a technical working group is looking for a suitable place for the new dumpsite.

“We are now finding another location to store rubbish,” he said. “The current dumpsite is reaching full capacity and cannot store more rubbish in the near future.”

The current dumpsite in Dangkor district’s Chhoeung Ek commune covers about three hectares. Approximately 3,000 tonnes of rubbish are transported there daily.

Mr Measpheakdey said that the team is also studying the possibility of having more than one location to store rubbish because rubbish collected from all over Phnom Penh is channelled to the single dumpsite in Dangkor district.

Sihanoukville? Not much else going for it ...
Meum est propositum in taberna mori,
ut sint Guinness proxima morientis ori.
tunc cantabunt letius angelorum chori:
"Sit Deus propitius huic potatori."
