Not entirely unexpectedly (see last August's FAO: African swine fever (ASF) threatens to spread from China to other Asian countries), another Southeast Asian country - Cambodia - has now reported an outbreak of African Swine Fever.
Today's announced outbreak reportedly began two weeks ago (March 22nd), in Rattanakiri province, very near Cambodia's border with Vietnam.Vietnam, which reported their first outbreak just 6 weeks ago, has now seen hundreds of outbreaks across 23 provinces, although none have been reported as far south as Rattanakiri.
