Title
The Void Deck
Description
There were many Singaporeans stranded in war-torn Cambodia when trouble broke out in Phnom Penh. Badly affected by the deterioration of the situation there, the civilians requested help from home. On 9 July 1997, the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) sent six flights of C-130 aircraft to fly about 450 Singaporeans and foreigners out of the chaotic country.
As early as March 1997, the SAF had emergency plans for Singaporeans living in Cambodia in case of unrest there. They were told, among other things, to gather at designated places like the Sofitel Cambodian Hotel in Phnom Penh.
Most of the Singaporeans evacuated said that they gathered at the hotel over the weekend. It was not easy reaching it, however.
