Je ne suis pas acheteur mais, pour ceux qui pourraient s'interresser à votre annonce, mêttre de suite ici des photos de votre terrain me semble beaucoup mieux.
Après, c'est mon opinion car, avec des photos, cela parle beaucoup mieux qu'une simple lecture.
Sans oublier de mêttre un prix( interressant pour l'acheteur).
Je ne sais pas si c'est donné .... car ça fait plutôt du 112 000€ et non pas 100 000€.
Soit un prix à l'hectare de 60 000$ (soit 45 000€).
Ça peut sembler cher pour le Cambodge, mais en fait tout dépend de la maison : surface habitable, équipement, etc ....
4 commentaires:Quel est le type de titre de propriété ? Il en existe 2 au Cambodge, le "grand" qui est officiel, et le "petit" qui l'est un peu moins...Oui, il faut absolument des photos de la maison et du terrain pour se faire une idée.C'est un peu bizarre de passer par un forum de voyage pour vendre un terrainEst-ce le moment d'acheter au Cambodge, vu l'instabilité politique du pays, avec un risque de manifestations importantes à PP, suite à la fraude massive de (Saddam) Hun Sen lors des dernières élections législatives ? J'attendrais de voir comment évoluent les choses avant d'acheter (point de vue d'acheteur, alors que le vendeur a tout intérêt à vendre maintenant, compte-tenu des risques potentiels à venir)....
Et puis j'attends de voir ce qui va se passer là-bas, avant de me positionner sur un achat.
S'il y a de grosses manifs et une répression sanglante (Saddam - Hun Sen en est capable), ce n'est pas le moment d'acheter. Il n'est pas impossible de certains vendeurs craignent également ceci, d'où leur empressement à vouloir vendre avant que les biens deviennent invendables
voir si un expat peut acheter un foncier ? A vérifier, il y a déjà eu pas mal d'arnaques comme cela !!
Je connais la réponse : seuls les détenteurs d'un passeport cambodgiens peuvent acheter des terrains.
J'ai acheté un terrain à Siem Reap, mais il est au nom de ma femme, qui est cambodgienne.
Et attention aux titres de propriétés, les archives (cadastres, etc...) ayant été détruites par les khmers rouges. Même des cambodgiens, qui viennent depuis des décennies sur leurs terres, ne peuvent pas tjs justifier de leur propriété; donc si leur terrain plait un peu trop à un copain de (Saddam) Hun-Sen, il se fait exproprier (400.000 expropriations au compteur .....) ....
Peût-être que le vendeur ici est syncère mais, concernant le Cambodge, toujours être très voir trop méfiant.
Ne jamais faire totalement confiance à une personne que l'on ne connait pas, surtout lorsqu'il s'agit d'argent.
Les mauvaises surprises arrivent malheureusement assez trop souvent.
S'il pouvait le donner, cela serait beaucoup mieux et beaucoup plus facile à trouver 😉.
Son terrain est peût-être interressant, le prix peût-être également après négociation.
Juste, pour le futur acquéreur s'il y a, très bien se renseigner au niveau papiers pour ne pas avoir une très mauvaise surprise par la suite: par éxemple, être bien sûr que le terrain est bien à lui.
Bon au bénéfice du doute, acceptons que l'offre soit honnête ! une société étrangère ou pas peut acheter un terrain ! c'est nouveau, cela vient de sortir , mais il serait nécessaire de prendre un avocat qui parle français pour savoir si le terrain appartient effectivement à la personne en question ! ne pas se précipiter, prendre son temps et attaquer le problème de front ! bonne chance !
/ une société étrangère ou pas peut acheter un terrain ! c'est nouveau, cela vient de sortir
Je ne savais pas. En fait, les investisseurs étrangers achetaient auparavant leur passeport cambodgien, c'était dans les 30.000$, et ce en toute illégalité. Donc la nouvelle loi a été faite pour faire plaisir aux copains viets et chinois du camarade (Saddam) Hun-Sen, qui devaient en avoir marre de payer cette taxe à 30.000$😏
Avant les expats ne pouvaient acheter qu'un étage , maintenant cela à changer, vous avez surement raison, pour faire plaisir aux investisseurs asiatiques et pour pouvoir arrondir les fins de mois !!
désolé mais nous avons déjà essayé et ca ne passe pas du tout ;
le fait que ce soit à l étranger sans doute...
merci quand meme du conseil
bien cordialement
mcc
que vous dire? sinon qu à 5mn de chez nous mais sur la grand route bien sur, c est 50$ le m²;
qu à Siem reap , la ville des temples à 1h30 de chez nous , c est 200$ le m² et vraiment le centre ville ça peut aller jusqu à 1000$ le m²
et Phnom penh et Kompong Som , une petite fortune aussi...
OUI OUI maintenant la terre est plus chere au Cambodge qu en France....
Venez vous en rendre compte vous meme.
bien cordialement
MCC
pas de problèmes pour vous répondre c est juste que je vais sur le net avec une clé 3g , rechargeable par cartes téléphoniques et que je n avais presque plus d argent dessus; voila c est rechargé , je réponds donc un petit mot à tout le monde;
Nous sommes un couple de franco khmer qui habitons maintenant le Cambodge depuis 7 ans;
Ce terrain de 2 ,5 hectares que nous avions acheté avant notre arrivée, était une rizière que nous avons donc aménagé en plantations et avons construit notre petite maison; nous sommes à 5mn en moto du centre ville de Mongkolborey , où il y a un grand marché ou l on trouve de tout.
Le prix de 6 $ le m² est tout à fait correct dans le coin, ce sont les tarifs;
eh oui , la terre est devenue chère au Cambodge!
Nous vendons ici simplement pour la mise en place d un nouveau projet avec des amis , à 30 km de Siem Reap, une plantation de fruits du dragon.
Voila quelques explications pour tout le monde...
Maintenant que notre annonce est passée, je voudrai y ajouter quelques photos mais pas moyen malgré le conseil d un internaute;
Merci de m 'aider
bien cordialement

Bonjour et Merci pour vos réponses. En fait, ici sur le forum, l'on trouve quelque fois des personnes qui lancent un message (qu'importe la nature) et puis ensuite aucune nouvelle d'eux par la suite, malgrés des réponses publiques.
Vous avez entièrement raison concernant le prix élevé des terrains aujourd'hui au Cambodge.
Je ne pense pas que c'est sur ce forum que vous pourez trouver votre acheteur (même si l'on ne sait jamais, ne jamais dire jamais), donc avec quelques photos sont le minimum ici.
Pour vous aider, je peux sans problème, si vous n'y arrivez pas d'où vous êtes, les envoyer à votre place ici en France (envoyez les moi sur ma messagerie) où vous le désirez qu'elles soient. A vous de voir.
En ce qui nous concerne, nous avons acheté un terrain à takhmau 30000$ (vrai valeur 35000$) en 2009, aujourd'hui il vaut environ 45000$ (le riche voisin aimerait beaucoup l'acheter pour mêttre ses voitures car terrain bonheur, il a fait appel à des bonzes, mais nous préférons le garder encore aujourd'hui). Si un jour nous décidons de le vendre, et toujours décidé fortement à l'acquérir le voisin, il devra alors passer à la caisse (façon de dire).
Est-ce que vous avez demandé conseil au Cambodge comment si prendre réellement pour vendre votre terrain de façon la meilleure ?
Je confirme, le terrain est cher, très cher au Cambodge, beaucoup de gens jouant à spéculer sur les terrains ("la valeur d'un terrain ne peux que monter"🤪). Comme pour toutes les bulles, spéculatives, le dernier à acheter n'aura que ses yeux pour pleurer.
Il faut garder à l'esprit le salaire mensuel d'un employé, par exemple 40-50$ à Siem-Reap (et bien sûr moins dans les autres provinces). Alors un terrain à 200$, voire 1000$ le m2, ça laisse rêveur😎.
Grand merci pour votre proposition de vous envoyer quelques photos de notre lieu de vie que nous souhaitons vendre sans aucune filouterie;
Mon mari est d origine khmer et tous les documents sont en bonne et due forme; c est vrai qu il faut être pour l instant khmer pour acheter du terrain ici.
Comme il y a une grande communauté de khmers en France , c est pour cela que nous avons décidé d y mettre cette annonce;
Il n y a encore aucune agence immobilière dans notre coin;
A Battambang, à 50km d ici , l agence Battambangimmo.com l avait accepté pendant quelques mois, malgré la distance de chez eux, mais viennent de la retirer car ils ont réduit leur fichier clientèle suite à l ouverture de leur hotel; sinon , ils prenaient 2,5% de commission en cas de vente de leur part; donc correct.
A Siem reap , nous avons été voir l agence CARE et eux prennent 3% mais ce qui nous gêne , c est les 1,5% qu ils prennent quand meme dans le cas où c est nous qui le vendons.
C est à dire qu on doit leur donner l exclusivité et cela nous dérange.
Nous continuons à faire des recherches d agences sur Siem Reap qui est à 110km d ici.
Voila encore merci
bien cordialement
MCC
merci pour les photos, elles donnent un meilleur aperçu du bien à vendre.
Afin d'éclairer un peu plus les acheteurs, pourrais-tu également nous communiquer les informations suivantes:surface de la maison d'habitation;comment la maison est-elle alimentée en eau (puits ???)surface agricole exploitée, sur les 2.5ha, répartition entre les différentes production (mangue, riz, canne à sucre)nbr d'ouvriers agricoles employésles acheteurs devant reprendre l'exploitation agricole, quel est le C.A. de cette activité (éventuellement à donner en M.P.)Concernant les commissions, c'est pratique courante au Cambodge. En particulier, si une tierce personne t'indique un terrain à vendre, c'est elle qui touche la commission (en général dans les 2%).
ET souvent, c'est quelqu'un de la famille de l'acheteur qui contacte le vendeur, et touche la comm : une manière pour la famille de réduire un peu l'investissement
Many of us have noticed that bugs have been making it difficult to navigate the forum lately.
I’ll let Kate and Ticapi explain the issue:
I went to your profile to check out the Thailand travel journal, and when I clicked on it, it brought me back here again. All week, I’ve been dealing with bugs like this—it’s really discouraging from continuing on VF.🙁
I had the same thing happen, and multiple times. For me, it was Montagnard’s latest journal that kept coming up no matter which discussion I clicked on.
Hi everyone, fellow travelers!
I’m looking for anyone who’s in Kyoto or planning to visit Nishiki Market! Here’s the thing: during our trip there in April, we discovered a jewelry artisan (highly recommended!) on the left when exiting through the west exit of Nishiki Market (which is a long covered east-west street). I bought a piece of jewelry for my daughter there, but she lost it. I’d love to buy her another one! In the photo, it’s the shop with the yellow awning to the right of the restaurant with the blue awning, "Sushi Sakai." Would any kind soul be willing to get the shop’s name, email, or phone number for me? Despite my Google/AI searches, it’s nowhere to be found. A thousand thanks to whoever can help me out! Wishing you all great vacations!

Hello everyone! 🙂🙂,
A BIG thank you to all the travelers who sent us postcards this year—my students are becoming real geography whizzes!!!!!!!! I’m renewing my call for your kindness this year! We’re also working on food, so if your postcards can make our mouths water with local dishes, traditional meals, or typical recipes, that’d be amazing!!
Here’s a quick recap of the project:
I’m reaching out to all travelers and globetrotters on this forum. I’m a teacher in Creuse, working in a ULIS program (which welcomes children aged 6 to 12 with disabilities into a mainstream school). This year, I’m starting a school journal project that will involve the kids in many different topics. A big part of the journal will focus on opening up to the world, diversity, travel, countries, culture...
I’m launching a call to invite as many of you as possible to send us a little postcard (from France or anywhere in the world!) to take us on a journey and help us discover new places, countries, and horizons—much more fun and exciting than a regular geography textbook! One section of our journal could be called "We received mail from " and would be an opportunity to research that location and share what we learn with our readers (a super enriching activity in class).
The project starts in September 2025 but has no real end date, as this journal and world discovery initiative will span several school years (the kids stay in my ULIS program for multiple years). Postcards can be sent anytime—throughout the year, across seasons, even during holidays! (The kids will find them when they return.)
I hope this idea appeals to as many of you as possible and that you’ll spread the word to your fellow traveler friends. Make us dream, take us on a journey!!!
For those who’d like to write to us in a language other than French, no problem—quite the opposite!!
Thank you in advance for your participation(s)! Below is our address. Feel free to leave your own address on a corner of the postcard if you’d like us to write back! 😊

Regarding the amount of tobacco you can buy during a trip in the European Union and bring back to France, we can't really talk about a "duty-free allowance," because the rules around how much tobacco you can bring back to France aren't straightforward at all under French law.
BOLIVIA: THE COUNTRY ON THE BRINK (What's Really Happening)
A dramatic saga is unfolding before our eyes in the Andes. Between suffocating blockades, clashes, an international airlift, and historic political decisions, Bolivia has just experienced 48 hours of rare intensity.
Here’s the full breakdown (economic, social, and political) of the last 48 hours:
For travelers and tourists: the article also includes an important note about the upcoming publication (starting tomorrow) of the precise status of roadblocks, route by route.
I’ll post the full update here on Voyage Forum!
Don’t miss this in-depth analysis. History is being written before our eyes! https://www.petitherge.com/bolivie-paralysie-et-ultimatum
I just discovered a great show on Arte.
It's called "7 en route": seven young European journalists travel around Europe in a fully converted bus, making reports on every city they visit. It's amazing! 🙂
Yesterday, for example, they were in Rome, Italy, and the reports included things like the world's smallest restaurant—a super romantic spot for two. There was also a report on the king of paparazzi in Italy.
They have to pick topics that let us discover the little quirks of each country. And at the end of each episode, we get to see the finished report.
It's such a great show, mixing journalism, travel, and discovery—basically, a must-watch!
It airs in the evening starting at 6:50 PM (I think), and it started this past Monday, July 14th.
If you watch it, let me know—we can chat about it!
I left my heart’s country eight days ago and returned to my adopted one—or was it the other way around? Scotland-Morvan, Morvan-Scotland, I’m not quite sure anymore.
After a quarter without dragging my slippers around here, even though I’d loudly declared I had no interest left in this site, here I am again!
My imagination never stays fallow for long. Just enough time for my inner land to rest. It gets overgrown with fresh nettles, the kind you can pick without getting stung. Then, it’s time to till the fragrant earth and let the story grow.
I hesitated over where to set this story.
Maybe the Highlands, maybe the Hebrides, maybe the Orkney Islands, maybe the Shetland Islands. All of Scotland is myth—easy to embroider.
But in the end, no. I’d almost be too afraid to bare my soul.
The story will take place at home. Simple, practical.
1)
This morning, I was up well before dawn, feeling a bit grumpy, but nothing a bowl of coffee won’t fix. I love my bowl, and no one dares take it. It’s porcelain, edged with intertwined blue flowers. On the bottom, it says "Revol." The factory has existed long before the Revolution. It was my great-grandmother’s bowl. She drank roasted barley from it during the war, then her Leroux chicory.
Last year, a little guy dropped it. My bowl broke into three pieces. A black anger vibrated deep inside me. The little boy was so upset, on the verge of tears. How could I scold him!
I picked up the three pieces and took Little Boy in my arms. His hair smelled of the light, sweet sweat of toddlers. A gentle hug that healed—his budding sorrow and my anger—everything vanished, and time carried on.
Today, my bowl is even prettier. Man fixed it using the traditional kintsugi technique, except he didn’t use gold powder or lacquer but superglue, and he delicately painted the cracks with woad blue. And my bowl is even more beautiful now.
I’m lingering, I can tell—it’s just that a story wraps itself in life, and life can’t be told in the snap of a finger. Life is long. Like in architecture, you start with a rough sketch, called a "sous-cul" (the initial pencil drawing), then you make a tracing, which is the work itself, the one you later carefully roll up in a wooden tube.
Life is like that: you erase, you start over, you use the nub of the pencil until it’s tiny, but you keep going—dreaming, loving.
"Living is a full-time occupation, a unique adventure. Always a surprise and a wonder, which sometimes turns into astonishment. And, from time to time, happiness."*
Alright, enough digressing—this introduction is definitely too long.
Tomorrow, I’ll get to the heart of the matter.
(I hate that expression; it feels like I’m cutting into someone’s skin.)
I’m Yann, a 28-year-old TikToker who loves traveling!
Since I’ve been to several destinations, I’d love to get a flag from each one as a sort of trophy. But from what I’ve seen online, a lot of sites sell them with what looks like really poor quality...
So I’m reaching out to you all to share a site you usually use—help me start my collection! :)
hi there
I’d love to get some opinions—I’ve never used Airbnb before.
They’re offering a key handover via lockbox.
Any tips or advice?
Is it reliable?
Best,
Hi there, I’m Laura, and I’m looking for a few people to answer some questions so I can understand your travel wishes and challenges. It won’t take long—I can chat here, by email, or by phone. Don’t worry, I’m not selling anything! 😊
On this forum, we talk a lot about trekking in the Himalayas, but I’d love to share another side of Nepal: its spiritual, cultural, and religious atmosphere, especially in Kathmandu.
Nepal, much like Tibet and Bhutan, is deeply connected to the Himalayas—the ultimate sacred mountain range. This small country exudes a calming vibe, shaped by a strong spiritual dimension. What I loved most was the unique sensory experience you get there. Walking around temples and tantric monasteries, a distinct scent fills the air—aromatic plants used for ritual fumigation. Locals mainly burn Himalayan juniper, cedar, sandalwood, and other local essences. This fragrant smoke is a way to purify the space and reach the deities, and you’re constantly enveloped in these aromas.
Another striking aspect is the sound. As soon as you step outside, you hear bells ringing in front of temples. People ring them three times before praying to announce their presence to the deities. Nepal is also the birthplace of singing bowls and sound meditation practices. In Kathmandu, you can easily find meditation sessions or "sound baths."
The spiritual dimension is everywhere: a Hindu sadhu practicing asceticism, a lama in deep red robes with his mala, turning a prayer wheel while murmuring "Om mani padme hum." Newar Buddhism, Tantrism, and Hinduism coexist harmoniously in daily life.
For those who love exploring a destination through its culture and spirituality, Nepal is an unforgettable place. What was your spiritual experience in Nepal like?
Hi,
I’m landing in Quebec and then heading to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. I’d like to rent a pick-up. My question is: does this vehicle come with a cover and is it secure enough to store luggage in? I’ve heard two conflicting opinions. Thanks
I just installed the Maps.Me app on my phone. I only recently found out about this app. I’m traveling in 2 weeks and a few days, and I’m a bit stuck on how to use it.
I’m from the Montreal (Quebec) area, and I’d love to know if there’s a kind soul out there who could help me get started and use the app at least minimally.
If there are private lessons available, I’d be interested in those too.
Like many others, I’m overjoyed to hear that VoyageForum is reopening! I’ve been waiting hopefully for this, and it’s wonderful that it’s finally happening!
I just couldn’t bring myself to actively participate in other French-language travel forums—their format and way of doing things never appealed to me as much. I really hope that VF’s structure, categories, and interface won’t change too much despite the handover, because I’m very attached to them. Through thick and thin, the site has held strong—it’s amazing!
In a previous message, François mentioned that there were positions to fill ahead of the reopening, including moderators...
I’ve been eagerly waiting for this and hoping to send in my CV.
Now, after reading the latest message, it seems like the team is already fully formed. But are there still a few spots left to fill?
I’ve been a VF member for 20 years (since 2004). I’d love to contribute to this wonderful adventure as a moderator if VF would trust me with the role. If the team is open to reviewing it, I’m ready to send my CV. Could you let me know the next steps?
I’m planning a 3-week trip to Japan in May with Voyage Privé. The package includes a 5 GB eSIM, but my phone isn’t new enough to support it. VP told me I could buy a SIM card when I arrive at the airport.
Sure enough, I’ve seen online that this is possible with different providers.
I only need it for checking routes, looking up addresses, train schedules, etc.—basically using Google Maps, TripAdvisor, and similar apps. No heavy downloads or major internet use. All hotels should provide free Wi-Fi for that, right?
Has anyone got any tips for me on this? What have you tried, and how much did it cost?
Thanks for your help!
I’d like to know if you can buy reef-safe sunscreen sprays at 7-Eleven. If so, how much do they cost? We’re traveling with backpacks, so we’ll either buy 100ml here or in Thailand.
I wanted to share a really unpleasant experience from our last trip booked with Promoséjours and organized by FTI.
We booked an 8-day/7-night stay in Egypt, from June 8 to 15.
The flight initially scheduled was changed a week before departure to take off at 10 PM from Paris CDG.
In the end, it took off with a 1-hour delay and included an unmentioned stopover in Marsa Alam.
We landed in Hurghada at 4 AM and arrived at the hotel at 6 AM.
So, we spent our first night on the plane.
For the return trip, surprise—the flight was moved up. We left the hotel at 10:30 PM on Friday the 14th to take off at 2 AM and land at 7 AM at Paris CDG.
So, we spent our last night on the plane too.
After sending a complaint letter to Promoséjours / FTI, they replied that the first and last days can be dedicated to transport (which I already knew) and that no matter how many nights you book, you’re not guaranteed to spend them in the hotel—it could just as well be on the plane.
I’m really questioning this.
Isn’t there a law that protects customers in cases like this?
Because when I do the math, the first and part of the second day were spent on transport, same for the second-to-last and last day. And I paid for 7 nights for a stay that only lasted 5.
Anyway, I just want to say thanks to them—thanks to their two sleepless nights in transit, I’m coming back even more exhausted from a trip that was supposed to be restful!
I also want to warn anyone booking through this agency about visas for Egypt.
At booking, they told me the visa was included in the price, then they sent me an email saying I’d have to pay for it on-site at 25 €.
Once there, we were directed to a special line for FTI customers, and guess what? They charged us 30 €!
Basically, they’re great at making sure you *enjoy* your vacation—mostly by enjoying your wallet!
If anyone has dealt with this kind of situation and won their case, I’m all ears.
Hi there!
I’m heading to Thailand for two months.
So I thought I’d get a Thai SIM card to use Google Maps for getting around cities, mostly.
Here’s my question: will this SIM affect my apps? Or will they work the same as with my Orange SIM?
Is there any setup I need to do, or can I just pop in the Thai SIM?
I’d also like to switch back to my Orange SIM now and then while I’m in Thailand—on the same phone. Will I need to reset the phone, or will it reconnect without any issues?
Thanks in advance for your tips!
Best,
Huiclos
Hi, I’d like to know where we can buy beer or wine in Chefchaouen and around Merzouga. We’ll be doing a circuit and staying at the Parador Hotel in Chefchaouen and in a bivouac in Merzouga.
Thanks for any info you can share!
Hello everyone,
I’m reaching out to all travelers and globe-trotters on this forum. I’m a teacher in Creuse working in a ULIS program (which welcomes children aged 6 to 12 with disabilities into a mainstream school). This year, I’m launching a school journal project that will involve the kids in many different topics. A big part of this journal will focus on opening up to the world, embracing differences, travel, global cultures, and more.
I’m putting out a call to invite as many of you as possible to send us a postcard (from France or anywhere in the world)! The goal is to help us "travel" and discover new places, countries, and horizons in a way that’s much more fun and exciting than a geography textbook. One section of our journal could be called "We received a letter from ," where we’d research the location and share what we learn with our readers—a really enriching activity for the classroom.
The project starts in September 2025 but doesn’t have a strict end date, since this journal and world-discovery initiative will span several school years (the kids stay in the ULIS program for multiple years). Postcards can be sent anytime—throughout the year, across seasons, even during holidays! The kids will find them when they return.
I hope this idea appeals to as many of you as possible, and that you’ll spread the word to your fellow travelers. Help us dream and explore!
For those who’d like to write to us in a language other than French, no problem—quite the opposite!
Thank you in advance for your participation! Below is our address. If you’d like us to write back, feel free to leave your address on a corner of the postcard! 😊

Hi there! I have to leave Ivato/Antananarivo on December 16th. I have a lot of ariary that I’d like to exchange for euros since I might not be coming back to Madagascar (after this 21st trip). I think the exchange office at Ivato also buys ariary back. If any of you have seen the rate for this buyback in advance, thanks a million!
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a website that would let me plot my travel route in advance so I can print it out. The idea is to create a map with a little “me” on a bike that my parents can move along as I progress, since I’m planning to cycle all the way to Nepal.
If any of you have done something similar or know of a good tool, I’d love to hear your tips!
Thanks in advance! 😊
I'm looking to buy an ultra-lightweight 50/55L travel backpack with a suitcase or front opening.
Does anyone have any brand and/or model recommendations?
Thanks,

Hello. We’re a retired couple heading to Sri Lanka from January to March. After the November floods, I’d like to know if we can offer hands-on help to the locals, maybe pack some clothes or other items people might need in our luggage, and who we could give them to. Thanks for any info from those on the ground.
Be careful when sailing between Somalia and northern Madagascar.
It appears to be Somali pirates who have widened their search in the Mozambique Channel, far from their usual attack zone, since, to my knowledge, there are no Malagasy pirates.
