Air Quality in SE Asia ;-(

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.

Air Quality in SE Asia ;-(

Glad i'm down South

Satellite map of Southeast Asia clearing showing who is causing the worst pollution due to open fires. Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia are the worst with Thailand not far behind them.

Southern Thailand, Northern Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia are all looking good.

Screen shots like this are useless. The size of the pixels makes it look like the whole region is on fire. Meanwhile if you zoom in on the app you would notice that the points/ fires are often small and isolated.

Looks ok to me. And one of those red dots was probably the car dealership that caught light. post585782.html#p585782

Reminds me of the map of the US secret and illegal bombing on Cambodia during the Vietnam war, in an attempt to disrupt the North Vietnamese supply trails.
