Flooding is the most common disaster just in Cambodia but almost in Southeast Asia countries are facing the same issues and it really affects tourism sectors. These are the possible strategies that Cambodian government can use to address this problem:
First, the government should be aware of this natural disaster and if it happens the government should prepare financial support for those destinations that are affected by flood. For example, if flood hit Siem Reap so government should have prepared some financial to support and speedy recover those destinations because Siem Reap is one of the attractive province in Cambodia and if not Cambodia will lose a lot of tourists that intense to visit there.
Secondly, the government has to prepare something immediately if the flood is coming and always there to support Cambodian people and all the tourists as well. For example, if a group of tourists are in a bad situation because of a flood and immediately help them to make them feel well cared for by the government, it would also help to promote the country to the world.
Thirdly, is to spread awareness to all the tourists that come and visit our country by cooperating with all the stakeholders to give information to tourists. For example, if tourists experience this kind of situation where they would go so we have to guide them where they should go or who they should contact when it happens.
Fourth, speedy recovery infrastructure of the destinations that are affected by the flood. For example, within a short period of time the government needs to do something to attract tourists back and especially it will not take too long to recover.
Fifth, discover new destinations for replacing those destinations that are affected by floods. For example: during the period that they rebuild the affected area they need to find new destinations to attract tourists to come and visit Cambodia.
Last but not least, promote other destinations to the world and rebuild the market. For example, the government should promote that it is safe to visit Cambodia again without any concerns.
