Srey Na, a 27-year-old who is seven months pregnant and lives with her mother, lost her house Friday as it started to sink into Boeung Kak lake. Though many residents on this side of the lake have yet to be approached for compensation due to the lake's reclamation and development, some are speculating that they may be forced out sooner by rising waters.
