Compensation is being sought for the families of five Cambodian fishermen who died of a still-unknown illness while at sea on Thai fishing vessels, officials said yesterday, while 15 of the 20 other Cambodian crew members who were hospitalised have fully recovered.

Chum Sounry, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said two of the victims have been cremated in Thailand at their families’ request, while “the Cambodian Embassy in Bangkok has endeavoured to find the relatives of the remaining three victims”.

“The embassy has contacted the boss of the five victims for compensation,” Sounry said, adding that they are still awaiting official autopsy results from the Ranong Provincial Hospital.
