PHNOM PENH, Nov. 5 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia's flood evacuees in many parts of the country have finally returned home, but aid relief to those who were seriously affected will continue for at least three more months, a government official said Saturday.
Keo Vy, spokesman of the National Committee for Disaster Management, said, "By tomorrow, some 51,000 families who had evacuated from homes due to flooding will all return to their homes."
He said there are just about 1,000 families who are preparing to return homes, while the rest had already done so.
However, he said, despite the flooding has subsided from the affected areas across the country, aid relief "will be continued for at least three more months for those who are severely affected. "
He said the flooding that began in August has left 18 Cambodian cities and provinces submerged.
It has been the worst flooding that hit the region in a decade, with at least 250 people killed and 1.5 million people affected.
According to Keo Vy, more than 350,000 people have so far been provided with aid relief.
The flood is estimated to have cost Cambodia 521 million U.S. dollars, mainly in damages of rice paddies and roads.
Many foreign countries and charitable organizations have provided relief assistance to Cambodia, including Japan, China, South Korea, Thailand, Laos, Singapore, Germany, the United States, France, and Australia as well as the United Nations agencies and Asian Development Bank.

Ah coward Decho Hun Sen, Mr Sam Rainsy asks you to sue him at France court about you murdered Khmer people. Why don't you dare to do it as you have done at Cambodia court?
Being a strong man as well as Prime Minister of one country, you should not be coward to face the real justice at France court or International court. Unless, you are the real murderer in Cambodia that is the reason why you fear of Mr Sam Rainsy at real and fair justice court.
Decho Hun Sen rubbed Cambodian people well being, health care, dignity and sell Cambodia out to Vietnam in cheap price as long as he can stay in power. Isn't true Samdach Decho Hun Sen?
How many Cambodian people lives have you killed in your life so far? Can you being honest telling the true?

There is no reason why you should be worry about...if you have never killed anyone in Cambodia. Isn’t it Decho Sen?
Cambodian people hope to see Samdach Decho Hun Sen will has gut as a leader or a man to sue Mr Sam Rainsy at France court as Mr Sam Rainsy invited Samdach decho many times through Radio and world media.
Be a man Decho Sen! One in your life be a man Decho Sen! Be a man to face Mr Sam Rainsy at France court and international court.
We are personal bodyguards of Samdach Decho would like to see Decho Hun Sen be a man with Mr Sam Rainsy at France Court. Otherwise, Samdach Decho is not worthy to protect because why do we have to die for protecting a traitor, a murderer, a blood sucker. Isn’t it true Samdach Decho Hun Sen? Do you agree with that?
