Fast-Driving Chinese Man Drowns in Sihanoukville Canal

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.

Cambodia News (Sihanoukville): At 7:20 am, on January 24, 2022, on Mittapheap street in Sangkat 4, Sihanoukville, a Lexus 300 (Sihanoukville 2A-8824), driven by a 29-year-old Chinese man, Yu Jinyue, crashed into a drainage canal, killing the driver at the scene. It appears that the Chinese man lost control of the Lexus due to high speed, and plunged off the road bridge into the water.

By the time the rescue team arrived at the accident scene, the driver had drowned in his car.

The Chinese consulate was informed and the body of the victim was taken to the provincial health center waiting to be claimed by his relatives.

Once again very sad for a young person to lose their life in this kind of situation.

1 Chinese life lost and 1 (or more, possibly) Cambodian lives saved.
Finding it very hard to find any sympathy for this guy having just read the other thread about a Chinese guy driving into a shop and killing a lady.

Driving fast enough to lose control of the car, yeah he was a hit and run waiting to happen. Thoughts and prayers.

First thought was "at least he didn't kill someone else".

Only that he killed himself and not someone else.
