Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): On 28 November 2022, a pregnant garment factory worker who was abandoned by her husband six months ago went into labour at 7:00 am. Her neighbors called a tricycle to the hospital on Choam Chao Road, but before it arrived at the hospital, she gave birth to her daughter by the street in Chrey Kong village, Sangkat Choam Chao III, Khan Por Senchey, Phnom Penh.
The woman, 21-year-old Srey Ny, is a factory worker who was living in a rented house with her husband in Trapeang Thleung 2 village, Sangkat Choam Chao I, Khan Por Senchey, Phnom Penh. However, the woman's husband abandoned her when she was three months pregnant, leaving her alone in the rented room.
According to sources at the scene, the woman had a stomach ache and she got into a tuktuk to go to hospital, but she had already started giving birth. Immediately, the neighbors called the Pochentong Referral Team and the 711 Rescue Team to come to the scene to help the woman to give birth safely. After the birth, they sent the lady and baby to the Pochentong Referral Hospital for further care. All's well that ends well, as the mother and daughter are both in good health following the incident.
