Whatzup - Breaking Cambodia Covid News on Outbreaks and Lockdowns

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.

AKP Phnom Penh, July 13, 2021 --

The Japanese Government has announced to provide approximately one million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine to the Kingdom of Cambodia.

“This was decided in light of the friendship between Japan and Cambodia and based on the current status of COVID-19 in Cambodia,” said H.E. Mikami Masahiro, Ambassador of Japan to Cambodia in a message released this morning.

The vaccines, which Japan is licensed to produce, will be shipped to Phnom Penh as soon as the logistics arrangement by the COVAX facility is completed, added H.E. Ambassador, hoping that this donation will support the Royal Government of Cambodia's efforts to defeat COVID-19 as well as help to relieve some of the anxieties of the Cambodian people.

Pardon me for being naive, but how in the hell can a country with closed borders, tally 150+ "imported" cases daily.

Cambodia to Vaccinate Children Aged from 12-17
AKP Phnom Penh, July 16, 2021 --

Prime Minister Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo HE this morning reaffirmed that Cambodia will vaccinate the children aged from 12 to 17 years old soon.

In a special voice message this morning, Samdech Techo HE said there are around 2 million children between 12 and 17 years old in Cambodia, so the country needs 4 million more doses of COVID-19 vaccines.

The vaccination of younger citizens can be done after the end or at the same time as that of the 18 years and over, currently in progress, he stressed.

Phnom Penh capital and Kandal province remain the priority, followed by Preah Sihanouk province, he said.

Samdech Techo HE called on all parents and guardians to be ready to bring their children to get vaccinated against COVID-19 so as to build community immunity for socio-economic resumption, especially school reopening mainly from secondary level up.

The vaccination of children aged 12 to 17 years old will be conducted on a voluntary basis, underlined Samdech Techo Prime Minister.

As of yesterday, 5,417,348 adult people have got their first jab, or 54.17 percent of the planned 10 million people, among them 4,036,510 have been fully vaccinated.

At the same time, Samdech Techo HE reminded people of strict adherence to health preventive measures, especially the 3 Dos and 3 Don'ts, even though they have already been vaccinated.
