Boeung Ket ready for Police pickets, Crown vie with PKR

As the national team endures yet another regional humiliation, the players inevitably return from that debacle in Manila for the rigorous grind of the Metfone C-League club duties this weekend featuring a card of five matches.

Title holders Boeung Ket Rubber Field have set a furious pace as the table toppers, winning their first five games with an impressive bag of 25 goals while conceding just four.

This is the kind of reputation and assailing form National Police have to deal with when they line up against the champions at 2pm on Sunday at Olympic Stadium.

But for Boeung Ket, playing National Police Commissary could be a lot tougher than any of the five teams they have met and mastered before. Except for those few moments of anguish against Kirivong Sok Sen Chey, the Kampong Cham-based side have had few or no worries against the rest.

Can Police, with just two wins and three draws behind them so far, rein in the free-striding front runners? They possibly can if they play to their known potential and throw a fire ring around the likes of Bisan George and Keo Sokngorn, while packing enough punch in their counters.

The Sunday crowd can reasonably expect a display of some colourful fireworks and excitement to go with it if Boeung Ket and Police bring out their best and go at each other’s throat.

The second fixture at 4pm which follows this high intensity clash, pits recent Hun Sen Cup winners NagaCorp against a somewhat disorientated Build Bright United, who have yet to win a game in six attempts so far this season and officially sacked their long-serving coach Meas Sam Oeun after their March 16 defeat by Kirivong.

With two wins and two draws, and that narrow loss to Preah Khan Reach, Naga are currently fifth in the standings with eight points, seven behind the pace. The twice champions have a lot of ground to make up before the end of the first batch of nine games.

On paper, Naga have little to fear from the tottering BBU form, but no game is not lost until it is won.

Saturday’s opening game at 2pm is a heavyweight division fight between Phnom Penh Crown and Preah Khan Reach.

The four-time league winners Crown missed out on the Super Four cut last year, but under a new coach and with new-found vigour, they are determined to fight their way back to the summit. On the leaderboard, Crown are four points behind Boeung Ket and one ahead of PKR.

There is always an air of excitement when these two sides meet. Some of their previous encounters have thrown up sensational twists and turns and there is a fierce rivalry that drives both sides.

Military Police-backed PKR, desperately looking for their maiden league triumph, got out of a form freeze that had beset them by pulling off a slender but deserving win over Naga. That victory has put the smiles back on their faces and the mood in the camp is now decidedly upbeat.

The winless Ministry of National Defence, who had a fairly good Cup run, find themselves shockingly at the bottom of the league table in the company of Senate Secretariat. The Army side take on Asia Europe University at 4pm on Saturday, desperate to break their duck.

In the weekend’s only match playing at the Old Stadium at 3pm on Saturday, visitors from Takeo, Kirivong, who are sixth in the standings with eight points, will be up against bottom of the table Senate, who have squeezed just one draw into their five defeats.

Aero aiming to open up Kingdom

LOCAL private airline Aero Cambodia intends to launch domestic chartered flights by the end of this year once it receives approval from the government.

The airline is preparing to apply for its air operator certificate from the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation (SSCA) and hopes to receive it by the end of the year, Aero Cambodia’s CEO Brian Naswall, said.

“We hope to go where Cambodia Angkor Air doesn’t go,” with potential destinations including Koh Kong, Battambang and Ratanakkiri, he said.

Eco-tourism is big in Ratanakkiri, but the road conditions make the journey uncomfortable, he said. Air travel is faster – flying from Phnom Penh to Ratanakkiri would take an hour and 15 minutes, he added.

Aero Cambodia also hopes to launch a Phnom Penh to Sihanoukville route, should no other airline do so first, according to Naswall. Earlier this year, the Post reported that Cambodia Angkor Air would likely start the same route this April.

“We will start off with chartered flights and, if our customers demand more, we may start scheduled flights,” he said. Airlines typically use chartered flights, organised via private hiring arrangements, to test market demand for new routes.

The airline’s eventual destinations would also depend on whether it can afford the airport fees and whether its test flights are successful, Naswall said.

Earlier this year, trial flights were executed successfully at Sihanoukville, Koh Kong and the islands around Koh Rong with the 12-seater Cessna 208 Caravan Amphibian plane. Having an amphibious plane allows the airline to reach more destinations, Naswall said.

The model is one of the six aircraft that Aero Cambodia hopes to eventually bring in, which will also include smaller planes like the two-seater Cessna 150.

A Cessna 208 Caravan Amphibian made in 1998 costs about $1.7 million.

Aero Cambodia, founded in 2010, consists of investors from Cambodia, Australia, Canada, and the US, most of whom are based in Cambodia, said Naswall, a US citizen and a licensed pilot.

“Finding investors from beyond Cambodia is the biggest challenge, as many do not know much about the country,” Naswall said.

He added he is also “trying to work to set up a [different] fee structure for smaller aircraft with the government, which has been very helpful”.

It costs more to fly each passenger with a smaller plane, so the airline is trying to keep costs low, he said.

Aero Cambodia would be Cambodia’s fourth local airline. Currently, Cambodia Angkor Air, Skywing Airlines, and TonleSap Airlines operate either regular or chartered flights, Soy Sokhan, SSCA’s undersecretary of state, said.

According to another SSCA undersecretary of state, Eng Soursdey, while “there are airfields in almost every province” in Cambodia, only four are currently usable – the domestic airports at Battambang, Stung Treng, Ratanakkiri and Koh Kong.

These airports have navigation facilities and staff working there, he said, even though he believes no airline currently flies there.

Co-chair of the Government-Private Sector Working Group on Tourism, Ho Vandy, said Aero Cambodia’s planned flights will boost tourism here. “Tourists spend a short time here, but they want to see many places.”
