Field trip

Visit of Sao Sary Foundation today- local NGO in Kampong Speu who is implementing financial literacy in their livelihood programmes. Kampong Speu is at 50 km from Phnom Penh and one of the poorest provinces in Cambodia. The Foundation targets children victims of abuse and trafficking. Families without income and they take debt after debt ... at 30% daily interest (you read well...)- at this rate, this is just slavery.

interesting choice of words


Back to Phnom Penh after 1 hour 1/2 in a mini-van with 25 passengers + driver + the guy calling for more passengers to get in... gives me idea on better utilising my car once back home...
