Statistically the more Cambodians there are on a flight the higher the risk. Since they have the absurd policy of demanding the 72 hours pre-flight test from foreigners only.
It's not that absurd as Cambodians have the right to come back to Cambodia whatever state they are in. A foreigner asking to be a guest has no such right so they can be selective.
Yes and no. When foreigners do get the opportunity to fly on Cambodian Government organized repatriation flights, then they should know and accept the risk.
When there is a 20-50% chance infected Cambodians are on regular/scheduled commercial flights, then it starts to become deliberate exposure of people to infectuous deceases. Accidents/Incidents can happen, though this is falls no longer in that category and the Cambodian Government should better take care of their visitors. i don't think, even returning Cambodians do have the right to infect other people on an airplane. It's just a humanitarian item, but alas, there are quite a lot of people earning big bucks from these quarantines .....
Given flights from Malaysia and Indonesia are now "forbidden" by the Cambodian government, it does look, these "repatriation" flights aren't repatriation flights, though just regular commercial flights.
Since it regularly does take only a couple of weeks to recover from Covid-19 (and health care abroad is "somewhat" better then in Cambodia) the infected Cambodians are better of to heal abroad then at home.
