Angkor Wat, listed in ‘World Wonder List’ for its grandeur, history, beauty and state of preservation, is the largest monument of the Angkor group and also the best preserved, an architectural masterpiece and one of the finest monuments in the world. SIHANOUKVILLE The main port city of Cambodia, Sihanoukville is the ideal destination for white sand beaches and tropical islands. Home to Cambodia’s principal deep-water maritime port, it’s a perfect base for exploring the lush islands nestled in the blue-green waters just off the coast. The laid-back, bucolic atmosphere of this diminutive village is perfect. Two major Islands just off the coast near Sihanoukville are Koh Rong and its neighbor Koh Rong Samleon KOH DEK KOUL ISLAND Koh Dek Koul Island is an exquisite jewel resting in the tranquil waters of Siam Bay, rich in Khmer culture and cuisine offered in a setting of tropical opulence. A small island in the Gulf of Thailand located about 7 km off the coast of Sihanoukville city in southern Cambodia, the exclusive Mirax Resort is based on Koh Dek Koul. Thick with jungle and teeming with marine life, this is a destination well-suited for outdoor enthusiasts and pleasure-seekers alike. Cambodia is one of the world’s newest cruising grounds, and ITINERARY although it requires a little effort to access, the result is access to a truly amazing experience. Decades of turmoil have delayed the counties development, but this is now changing, and the Cambodian people are starting to create a modern society with solid infrastructure. This lack of development means that their coastal Islands have remained virtually untouched; resulting in some of the region’s most pristine cruising. The following itinerary is a trip of exploration from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok, to the tranquility of Cambodia’s Angkor Wat. Day 1 Starting your cruise from a side too berth in the Bangkok River, guests are easily shuttled from the International Airport to their yacht. An afternoon spent exploring this city, with so much accessible from the river, is not to be missed. Bangkok, with its numerous canals and waterways, is often referred to as, ‘Venice of the East’. Day 2 A simple overnight cruise from Bangkok takes you to the beachfront town of Pattaya. Now a mecca for beach Lovers and Kite Surfers, it also offers some peaceful offshore Islands for those looking for a slower pace of life. Day 3 Another short passage east will take you to the Eastern Borders of Thailand, and the Island of Koh Kut. Day 4 Clearing out from Thailand, you now head into Cambodian Waters, and the pristine Islands at the entrance to Chhak Kampong Saom, central of which are Koh Rung and Koh Rung Samlem. Approaching from the North the first anchorage would come off the twin beaches, located on the North Western End of Koh Rung. Day 5 A short cruise south the Amazing 5KM Sandy white beach on the South West Coast. The water surrounding this gem of an Island is crystal clear, providing the perfect opportunity for diving and snorkeling. The beach has only a few local buildings on its western extremity, providing aces of space for exploring. Should the weather turn on you, the island also offers several excellent anchorages on the eastern shore. Ashore you will find a few local villages to explore, as well as a couple of small chalet style resorts. Day 6 To the South, Koh Rung Samlem offers more idyllic anchorages, crystal clear waters and virgin forests to explore. Further offshore you will find the Island of Kas Tang. Surrounded by protected bays and pristine beaches, the Island also offers many snorkeling and diving opportunities. Day 7 & onwards A helicopter pick up from the beach followed by a brief flight will take you to the world famous and historic “Angkor Wat Archaeological Park” in Siam Reap. Angkor Wat is one of the most famous sites in South East Asia and covers an area of over 400 Sq KM. The Park offers 5 Star accommodations for those desiring to spend a couple of days to really explore the many temples that make up Angkor Wat. For guests not visiting Angkor Wat, departure is arranged through the coastal town of Sihanoukville, just a short cruise from the Islands. A large Navy dock can be used for short periods of time, providing secure berthing with direct access to the town. Customs and Immigration are quickly dealt with, and a short drive takes you to the local airport, which is large enough for most private Jets to use. Cambodia is best cruised between November and March, when the predominant North East Monsoon Winds provide calm cruising, and clear skies. Quick Facts from APS Cambodia: Whilst there are two clearance ports in Cambodia, Khao Kong and Sikhanoukville, yachts have had difficulties clearing into and out of the country at Khao Kong if not departing to Thailand. The days of there being no costs for cruising here (other than “tea money” for officials) are also gone and it is mandatory to use the state shipping agency in Sikhanoukville for clearance. Cruisers’ experiences indicate that the ‘fees’ requested vary greatly and not all officials are familiar with the paperwork involved with visiting yachts. Entrance and exit fees vary depending on the size of the yacht and negotiating skills. Your yacht agent is a great asset in planning your trip and ensuring the smoothest arrival and departure, while meeting all your needs. Best time in Cambodia for the coastal region is November through to about May (Dry Season) Prevailing wind typically Northerly to nor Easterly. A five star resort on Koh Rong, the Royal Sands Koh Rong , has good anchorage off that bay and plenty of depth.

Defining a War: INDOCHINA, THE VIETNAM WAR, AND THE MAYAGUEZ INCIDENT by Lieutenant Colonel Michael Hunter, USA Abstract: Only two weeks after the fall of Saigon in May 1975, Khmer Rouge forces seized the American mer- chant ship SS Mayaguez (1944) off the Cambodian coast, setting up a Marine rescue and recovery battle on the island of Koh Tang. This battle on 12–15 May 1975 was the final U.S. military episode amid the wider Second Indochina War. The term Vietnam War has impeded a proper understanding of the wider war in the American consciousness, leading many to disassociate the Mayaguez incident from the Vietnam War, though they belong within the same historical frame. This article seeks to provide a heretofore unseen historical argument con- necting the Mayaguez incident to the wider war and to demonstrate that Mayaguez and Koh Tang veterans are Vietnam veterans, relying on primary sources from the Ford administration, the papers of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, and interviews with veterans.

  • Unofficial Translation Joint Statement Youths, Civil Society Groups and Grassroots Communities Call for Removal of Development License from Koh Kong S.E.Z Co
    Unofficial translation Joint Statement Youths, Civil Society groups and Grassroots communities call for removal of development license from Koh Kong S.E.Z Co. Ltd and regulate Koh Kong Krao island as a national protected area. 31 July 2020 – We, the undersigned youths, civil society groups and grassroots communities, are very concerned by the Royal Government of Cambodia granting Koh Kong S.E.Z Col, Ltd, a company publicly known as being owned by Ly Yong Phat – a powerful tycoon widely known for his involvement in human rights abuses, land rights violations and the destruction of natural resources – the license to develop Koh Kong Krao island in Koh Kong province. The authorization given to this company will potentially be a serious threat to natural resources on the island and biodiversity in the sea, including deforestation, wildlife extinction, illegal buildings constructed on the beach, water pollution in the sea, loss natural beauty of the island and loss the benefit for Cambodian people, etc. For example, in the case on Koh Rong Samloem island, there is illegal construction on the beach land and polluted water draining into the sea. Another case is Songsaa island; after the development, most Cambodian people cannot afford to stay on the island, because the price of accommodation is too expensive. Therefore, we are very concerned about the planned development of the island by the company, and call for the government to remove the development license for Koh Kong Krao island from the company and to take all effective measures to preserve the national resources and biodiversity in the sea surrounding the island.

[INF] Cambodia coast line had extended of 435 Km from Thai border in the North to Viet Nam border in the South and it known as diversified coastal ecosystem. In the past, sea turtles were seen in many places in Cambodia sea water. Kampot province is one of four provinces/municipalities where sea turtles had often seen in seagrass meadow. However, population of sea turtles in Cambodia were rapidly declined for last few decades due to unregulated management schemes. Coastal development such as infrastructure, tourist place, petroleum construction etc. caused to destructive habitat of sea turtle. On the other hand, push net, trawlers could effectively capture sea turtles. Furthermore, unrecognized value of sea turtles by local people leaded to put more pressure to decrease population of these species because they can capture whatever they can and they can eat whatever they want....etc.
