<p>Construction workers said the unfinished building in the coastal city of Sihanoukville doubled as their housing, with the crew spending nights on the second floor.</p>
<p>Nhor Chandeun said he and his wife were asleep when the building crumbled on top of them at around 4am on Saturday.</p>
<p>“All the workers were asleep,” the 31-year-old said from a hospital. “A moment before the building collapsed it was vibrating and then it was falling down. But it was too quick to escape.”</p>

<p>The Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training said that 30 workers were at the site when the building collapsed, but Nhor Chandeun said there were about 55-60 people inside the building.</p>
<p>Yun Min, the governor of Preah Sihanouk province, said the building was owned by a Chinese investor who leased land for a condominium – one of many Chinese projects in the thriving beach resort.</p>
<p>Provincial authorities said in a statement that four Chinese nationals involved in the construction have been detained while an investigation into the collapse is carried out.</p>
