Construction Site Evacuated After Collapse Warning

 

Preah Sihanouk Province: Around 10 am on November 5, 2019, after news that a concrete building along road 3, Sangkat Sihanoukville road showed signs of collapsing (*appears to be cracking in foundations), Sihanoukville Governor HE Kouch Chamroeun led a professional team to check for any possible precautionary measures against the further collapse of the building.

In that, HE Governor said that the first step would be to temporarily evacuate construction workers or people living near the building to allow time for professional officials to deal with the situation.

A preliminary examination of the construction techniques concluded that the collapse was likely due to more excavations at the back.

However, officials are calling for the owners to ask for more information and all work has been suspended.
