  1. Garment owners are not the only ones taking advantage of Local staff;

    My GF's 19 year old sister works at a khmer run hotel in Phnom Penh,

    her shift starts at 3 pm and ends at 3 am, she gets lodging in a room with others and is paid $80/month with one day off/month

    Talk about slavery

    It's not really slavery but a way of life. A restaurant in PP that I know well offers $110/mo, living quarters and food along with the one day off per mo. That actually gives them something to send home.

    What is really sad are the packed truckloads of people standing all the way to whatever village they live in, probably getting home with enough time get a little sleep and go back to the factory.

    A hotel manager in PP told me that there are quite a number of factory girls who "moonlight" visiting the hotels....now that is sad. The families back in the homeland never question the money that comes home. They know!

  2. Dear Rarky Being a Pakistani national im cursed with a Paki passport. What donation is required to get a cambodian passport and nationality? Id dual citizenship is not allowed id be happy to give up my Paki passport however not possible for me to reside in Cambodia at the moment Ill be 53 tomorrow and my email is <removed> Cheers

    The figure went up to $75 K

    I was told, but never pursued it, that even over 50yo you could get a marriage certified and pursue citizenship through the Sangkat level. It takes really solid connections and of course something to solidify the friendship...

    Nothing at all like the $75k mentioned, but as I said, SOLID CONNECTIONS.

    I haven't tried it but have made some fine friends on other matters....
