Cambodia lost 337 Million USD in 2013 alone for the traffic accident

Reports from the Ministry of Public Affairs and Transportation said that in 2013 alone, Cambodia suffer from a net lost of more than 300 million US dollars from its in-country traffic accident.

"There is no day that Cambodia do not have a traffic accident and it would be the oddest thing that it has none", said a road traveler giving his concern over the daily rate of traffic accidents. Truly here in Cambodia, at least 20 cases per day of traffic accident happens and at least 2 person die each day to traffic accident. There has been strategies to strengthen the law enforcement, vehicle condition control, alcohol control, improvement of traffic infrastructure, etc. yet the trouble does not seem to be going down. From another dimension, it seems like the government is doing on the wrong side to prevent traffic accidents.

Each year we just see the government people would say they commit to reduce traffic accident to a minimal stage, but it never happens at all.
