Cambodia Floods update 6

About 30 families whose house was covered by floodwaters have sought refuge on the higher ground of the battered and worn out national road going from Prek Kdam bridge to Kompong Cham. They built some rag tag shelters and make a living by cleaning mounds of earthworms used to feed the ducks. Worms too look for higher ground.

The Cambodian floods story was updated last Friday with a bunch of new pictures.
