Urbanization in this capital city of Cambodia, changes of land cover from pervious to impervious areas, and the climate change phenomenon introducing a more intense rainfall within a short time, have led to frequent flooding during the rainy season. Human activities might be a main contributing factor to urban floods in this area. To propose a sustainable measure for such water-related hazard, understanding on public perception is one among various important issues to be considered. This study is aimed at analyzing public perceptions on urban flood in Phnom Penh. A questionnaire survey on 100 samples was conducted within four dense districts of the city.
