Re: Fire north of Wat Phnom
That's not just buses going up in flames, that's people's jobs, investments, livelihoods.... Just what people need right now. Hope nobody was hurt.
I never thought I'd ever live somewhere in the 21st century with as many fires as Phnom Penh has. It's really quite shocking.

Well, hopefully insurance will cover it and Virak can buy new crash-proof buses.xandreu wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 6:25 pm That's not just buses going up in flames, that's people's jobs, investments, livelihoods.... Just what people need right now. Hope nobody was hurt.
