Cambodia ended on Thursday a blanket coronavirus lockdown in Phnom Penh after three weeks, as busy traffic returned to some streets of the capital, though authorities retained tighter curbs in some districts. | Reuters

“I request that people should not be negligent, because we are living under a new way of life in the context of COVID-19,” Phnom Penh’s deputy governor Mean Chanyada told a news conference.

As Phnom Penh opens up, authorities have also introduced new measures, such as only permitting 50 percent of workers in factories to return and with the priority on those vaccinated. The World Health Organization’s representative in Cambodia, Li Ailan, warned on Sunday against easing curbs too soon.
