Phnom Penh stampede : ウィキペディア英語版 | Phnom Penh stampede
The Phnom Penh stampede occurred on 22 November 2010 when 347 people were killed and another 755 were injured in a human stampede during the Khmer Water Festival celebrations in the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh. ==Background== The stampede occurred at the end of the three-day Water Festival to celebrate the end of the monsoon season and the semiannual reversal of flow of the Tonlé Sap river.〔.〕〔.〕〔.〕 Initial reports suggest that festival-goers had gathered on ''Koh Pich'' ("Diamond Island"), a spit of land stretching into the Tonlé Sap, to watch boat races and then a concert.〔 Around four million people had attended the festival. It was the third incident in the festival's history resulting in fatalities, though it was by far the worst; five rowers on a boat drowned in 2008, and another drowned in 2009.〔
