Hundreds of Chinese nationals have fled to Cambodia to escape
anti-China riots in Vietnam in which at least 20 people are reported to have
been killed.
More than 600 Chinese people from Vietnam crossed at Bavet international
checkpoint into Cambodia, yesterday. "After the situation calms down, they
may go back to Vietnam or to other places." Bavet is on a highway
stretching from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam's commercial centre, to Cambodia's
capital, Phnom Penh. Thousands of Vietnamese set fire to foreign factories and
rampaged through industrial zones in the south of the country in an angry
reaction to Chinese oil drilling in a part of the South China Sea claimed by
Vietnam.
