Sihanoukville (Cambodia): Two men were pulled alive from the rubble of a collapsed Cambodian building, according to an AFP reporter at the scene, more than two days after the construction site accident that left at least 28 dead.

Workers clawed back the rubble overnight as a grim-faced Cambo­dian premier Hun Sen visited the scene of the collapse in Sihanoukville, a beach town undergoing a Chinese investment bonanza.The night was punctuated by grim processions of bodies on stretchers being carried to waiting ambulances.
