An official from the ministry of meteorology and water resources indicated that there are two simultaneous storms brewing in the South China Sea and in the Pacific Ocean, and both storms are heading towards South Vietnam, and if their courses remain the same, they will also affect Cambodia on 23-24 November, the same days the Boat Race festival will take place. Long Saravuth, director of the meteorology department, told the Rasmei Kampuchea on Wednesday that his department did not inform the public yet about these storms because they are still to far away, and they have no influence yet on Cambodia. He said that if these two storms maintain their courses, they could affect Cambodia on the days of the Boat Race festival.
