In rural Cambodia, dozens have people have died in recent months after drinking toxic home-brewed alcohol. In the village of Thnong in Kampot province, a bad batch consumed at a funeral left tragedy in its wake.
Prom Vannak, 50, would rarely go a day without at least a few glasses of rice wine, especially after a serious motorcycle accident that left him unable to work as a fisherman.
So when his uncle Muth - who was also a big drinker - passed away in May, there was no doubt that the funeral would be spent drinking and reminiscing with friends and family in the village.
