Tim,Absolutely right, it’s not surprised at all. The ruling government lives on handout from the donors, what do you expected the millions of poor Cambodian to live on.
The systems over there are most the corrupted and unproductive. You reap what you sow, if they don’t sow anything over there, of course they will have nothing to reap. Many people in the cities study real hard just are looking forward to get out of the country. The systems are unorganized and offer little opportunities for the populations as whole. The corrupted beaurocrates only interested in doing one signature and get at least $3,000. Someone I know wanted to help Cambodia so he organized to import agriculture products to sell at his shop. All those products have to pass about 5 signatures which would get him at least $15,000 excluding the cost of buying, containers and shipping. Where can he get the profit from? He also has to wait four weeks to get right amount he wants. In the end he has no choice but to import from Thailand and Vietnam. Everyone over there only interested in reaping, but not sow. So, I am not the least surprised if they are starving.
