At 2:2o pm, the delegation travelled to National Route 48 and Tropeang Rung Bridge built with Thai money, about 50 kilometres from the provincial town of Koh Kong. The delgation had only travelled half way when a heavy rain poured down accompanied with thunders and lightnings.

to all KI readers,
please beware, Soy Sopheap of DAP news is an imposter. He's a CPP member and Hun Sen's "Ass Kisser on CTN!" DAP is owned by him and secretly funded by the CPP gang. DAP is located next door to Phnom Penh City Hall - which is now sold to CamKo Company.
KI Media should stop posting DAP "BS" propagada news!

6:38 AM You're so right! Ah Soy Sopheap is just a talking parrot of CPP with no ethics as a journalist at all. His news is full of superstitious nonsense bullshits. Only those twits in primary schools believe that this story is true.
Wake up chumps, U khmers live in stone age for too damn long!

News is balance. i want to read both side.
News are news. They are not opinion or propaganda. As long as Khmerization or KI report only DAP's news and not DAP's opinion, I'm OK with it.
