Earlier this year, I worked on a story about a Cambodian Muslim family fishing and living on the banks of the #MekongRiver in #PhnomPenh. After the big storm last night, I went to check how they were doing reuters.com/article/us-mek…
ICYMI, some scary footage from last night's storm: m.facebook.com/10000135699151…
Tin Yusos, the fisherman we followed, told me the winds this year have been much stronger than in the past -- strong enough to flip boats over. Yusos's family was ok, but several boats in their community of 18 families were completely flooded last night.
