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.

13 Houses Go Up in Smoke Due to a Faulty House Electrics

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Cambodia News (Kompong Speu Province): On May 22, 2022, at 9:10 pm in Phsar Treng Troyeung village, Phnom Srouch district, Kompong Speu province, 13 houses were engulfed in flames, when one house fire spread to completely destroy 12 other houses in the proximity.
The outbreak was apparently caused by faulty electric wiring, which caught on fire in the first house and then spread to the neighboring houses.

After a few hours, the fire was completely extinguished by the firemen and their fire trucks at around 1:50 am.

However, the timely firefighting intervention prevented the fire from spreading to the neighboring houses and part of the building was saved.
The fire was caused by electric wires hanging above the first storey of the wooden building.
