I heard it has rained quite a lot there recently. Is that true. I don't remember any rain in the capital since around November.
So what started out as a slash n burn turned into quite a big fire, spreading into the National Park, fire crews have been busy.

some years I have been here it's been bone dry from Nov-April others (when in Sihanoukville) got some rain every month....
The deliberately set fires on Bokor Mountain Slopes facing Kampot and along the Road to Sihanoukvill have a long History of Decades but stopped when the current Kampot Gov. Mr.Mao came to office. Now he's on his way out and the shit starts again. The old Tourist Mags even claimed that Bokor was an active Vulcano ! No law inforcement ?
