Maybe it’d be safer for your health if you smoke inside.Lucky Lucan wrote:I noticed loads of smoke in the air this morning when I went out to a balcony to have a smoke, and I was 10km as the crow flies NNW of Choueng Ek. Does anyone have the co-ordinates for that dump? I've driven past the gate but can't remember exactly where it was. The most likely place I can see on Google Earth Pro is 1.5 km directly west of the killing fields stupa. If you look at the satellite image of Choueng Ek, there's an ancient circular fort less than a Km southeast. I only read about it recently in "King Norodom's Head", but anyway it's one of the oldest structures for quite a distance, I think there's a similar one near Memot. Supposedly almost impossible to discern from ground level though.

Ok I definitely noticed it tonight and on reflection is was smoggy last week. I guess I couldn't tell the difference between this special smog and the regular rubbish and leaf burning.

Has the air quality got worse over the last couple of years?
Last couple of times I've been here it seems to me more smoggy and noticeably less visibility than I remember previously. Was thinking that in December last year flying in, and nothing has changed that view so far.

Five years ago I moved over the bridge to Prek Leap I am on the Mekong and the air is ok.Nasty Canasta wrote:Has the air quality got worse over the last couple of years?

Has anyone got an update on this?
The air last night was really bad, and it coincides with winds from south south west.

Today is a bit better, but its still noticeable.
Its been a few days now - Does anyone know if they are attempting to extinguish the fire, or how long it will be till it burns out?
