Cambodian farmers plant rice in a paddy field in Kampong Speu province August 21, 2012. A drought has hit Cambodia during its rainy season destroying more than 100,000 hectares of crops across the country, a government spokesman told Reuters on Tuesday. According to National Committee for Disaster Management (NCDM) a total of 100,476 hectares of crops had already been ruined as the result of no rain for 6 weeks beginning in June, while another 135,444 hectares of crops were at risk of being destroyed in 14 provinces and cities.

this is an EMERGENCY , farmers are in need to be
RESCUED . Kem Sokha should cancel his tour to tackle
the problem . RESCUE Sam RAINSI later . People will
vote for whom help them through the predicament .
Only one more week will be September, the end of raining season and there is no water in the field?
Look at those poor souls trying to plant rice.
