Eirn Sokkhoeut was 20 years old when she moved to Phnom Penh from Banteay Meanchey province four years ago, seeking a degree in business management. She rented a room in the city’s Tuol Kork district and quickly got a job as a cashier at a massage parlor.

 

But her salary wasn’t high, and the hours were long. When her landlord told her about a job as a waitress in a KTV club, she jumped at it. The change was immediate.

 

“The hours are much better and I earn more money,” Sokkhoeut says, adding that she now works around eight or nine hours a day instead of 11 or 12. And while she previously made just $100 a month, she can now send $200 or $300 back to her family in that time. The KTV owner helps pay for housing and school fees, reducing her cost of living.
