Vendors face eviction to beautify beach

In May Cambodia became a member of the World’s Most Beautiful Beach Club and as a result Koh Kong provincial authorities are not renewing leasing for beachfront stores and evicting those who work there. The leases are said to have expired two months ago, and 12 vendors have been ordered to close or move their stores. The land is being taken back in order to “develop the province”.
