- 'Life has no meaning when you can barely survive', says Prang Nan from Sihanoukville, Cambodia. She lost a lot of her possessions when she was forcefully evicted in 2007. Apart from her, around 107 other families were forced to leave their homes by the army and the police, who didn't hesitate to use violence.
This video is part of the Amnesty International www.SlumStories.org project. An online videochannel about the life in slums in different parts of the world.
All videos can be watched with English, Arab, French, Spanish, German and Dutch subtitles.
what a genuine lady, it makes me sad. thanks for sharing.
In English, the meaning is essentially the same. Day by day; hand to mouth. The understanding is the same.
I work for an NGO group commissioned to go there in a few weeks. We will just keep trying to improve things for these people until we're not needed anymore, but they're not being forgotten! Bureaucrats, politicians and corporations are the ones holding things up. The Koreans and the French have done nothing but take money from these countries and leave projects half-done. We'll hold them accountable in one way or another! There's more than one way to skin a skin-flint!
Very sad my family are glad to leave the country, Thanks for sharing
Jessica Snipe y u leave the country
Hopefully the community leader/representative will initiate a community project for the people so they can uplift and upgrade their daily life. Like the lady says they just wanted to live like any other human does.
brave woman,they took her house and land,but she smiles,wish i help her oneday
Good to hear from you said that.
Um país dominado pelos mais ricos, onde a Lei favorece quem pode pagar, onde o pobre, vai morrer pobre, onde a desigualdade é notória, onde o povo aceita ser explorado. Essa gente precisa de um líder urgente.
hey r u working in cambodia,if yes then i would love to help cause i am also interseted in taking up projects :)

Mon rêve : ouvrir une école dans une région pauvre du Cambodge, enseigner le français, l'anglais, les mathématiques, la physique-chimie, l'électricité, l'électronique et le calcul scientifique sur ordinateur aux jeunes khmers . Je leur offrirais gratuitement, le petit déjeuner et le déjeuner . Puis, je les enverrais sur Phnom-Penh ou à l'étranger pour faire leur formation de spécialité ( ponts et chaussées, nucléaire, énergies nouvelles, ... ) .
J'ai le professeur ( moi, ingénieur en électronique ) . Il me manque l'argent .
Si une association pouvait m'aider, ce serait magnifique .
Cela contribuerait beaucoup au d
Cela contribuerait beaucoup au développement du Cambodge afin que nous n'ayons plus besoin de demander de l'aide aux pays riches .
Great place to have easy life and good social life too while being close to nature.
merci pour le partage.
See the oppression the poor broken heart 💔 to know many people in Khmer were suffering from evil and demon. JESUS how you judge that when you coming back the second???
2022 This place is coming up 🙌🇰🇭
Its their government that caused this social issue with their ppl. I hope someone stands up and take their country back.
You have no idea how right you are sir! A lot of ppl don't know the truth. Makes me sad...
They had their own land but they played game and sold their own house. Then they moved to everywhere . if they can get this land after they will sell and keep moving to other place.
Bill Cosby you are real of Cambodia people. I'm from Cambodia and from poor family but I try to work and tell the truth thing to the world. Of course Cambodia still stay in low developing country as big trouble of corruption but these people is a group of lazy people. I work with them and known them well. before nobody stay here but after the tourist coming and the price of land is up, they come too. Bill Cosby you should not give the fake information.
The guy above you is that person. LOL
I can't believe this happens. People don't deserve to live like this. Wish the best for all of them. -From Canada
lovely...nice place
Nice 👍
OMG, I went there the same year so amazing to see back in time 1999, Soooooo different, it was a totally different country then. Many things were so poor, and sad, and guns everywhere, robberies etc. Aloit has improved, but the corruption and all the Casino made me never ever to return to this once paradise of a beach town.... Its a mxed feeling seeing this.... Loved the atmosphare that time, and 2003 again the freedom, roaming around with big off road bikes all over the country, but THE POVERTY OMG, it was heel lto see! I promise, not even India, was as bad, maybe Afghanistan today is about the same!.
Oh, okay....! Thanks for telling me.
no subtitle?
i was there and i like it.
god bless you all
God loves you so very, very much that He sent His Holy Son Jesus from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins, and to be put into a tomb 3 days and rise from the dead the third day, and He (Jesus) went back up to heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today & repent! :)
To every people : if you found what you have just seen is sad, unfair not humain Then Please help them !!! You can all do something like sharing this and talking to other !!
Like this women said " i just would like a land to live and, growing plants is enough to survive but there's no land nowaday ! it's worst than pol's pot regime (like hitler or staline) "
Ps : Sharing this takes you only 1 minute !
After the war many land was taken and undocumented. It is not documented mean it isn’t belong to them. They claimed as their own and build house. My families left Cambodian and my grandparents owns large land however it was destroy during the war. Many education were killed by Khmer Rouge which happen to be Khmer. The house and land that belong to my family was own by Khmer Rouge. So is hard to believe who I should feel pity.
All those people are not there anymore. The government evicted them and sold their land to developers. Just search eviction Sihanoukville.
But minister in Cambodia is a millionaire ..Why?
Beautiful people.
It wasnt their land in the first place. They had no clear titles, they were squatters. See my other comment.
I guess u guys are right. They are living in the society where the rich get whatever they want. The poor are treated nothing more than dirt. But put yourself in their shoe. Practice empathy.
Good
the government lead srok khmer right now is khmer ka hom regime, hun sen,heng samrin ,Chia sim
These ladies look happier than most American woman…a roof over your head and a motor bike..I could live like that and im serious. I would like a little security though in case something happened where u couldnt get around or something…i mean living security not crime security….
its not thai it Khmer and I had no problem reading the subtitles
God bless
Tội nghiệp quá nhìn thấy cam động quá
Cambodia is great
Poor people hope they better
2012/05/22 segera dikurangi mundur tahun waktu berkurang
comunal land systems worked better than they are given credit for
that is, they work well for self sufficiency and for small scale market oriented agriculture
today however everything is bought up by corporate moguls all over, agriculture has become an industry, animals are commodities and people are no longer a factor
the old argument that they provide jobs disapears when you look at reallity as wages plumetted or at least stagnated and automation increased making supposedly cheap food incredibly proffitable and defacto expensive for a population that is struggling to find work
and as someone who is by no means a socialist or communist, it is time to recognize that giant corporations are no better than centrally lead economy states, they hold a monopoly and don't allow any competition to evolve
we are producing a new nobility
you will own nothing
Are you going to help people or are you going to do as the vast majority of NGO's? I mean buy a expensive and luxurious Lexus SUV for the money you collect from people that will help... ;-)
Homeless in America is lovely compare to Cambodia
We live day by day. (Or we live from a meal to another meal). Not we live from hand to mouth.
Tội nghiệp quá sau xong noi đây
best place in cambodia
that my story
I develop country under hun sen power without care his own people.
Reflecting to Realism, nature of human is brutish and aggressive. NGO may shape govt policy, but does it really function?
Nature of humans are not aggressive. when they all are put under a spell of corruption this is what happens, compassion and the fabric of life will wither
I was just watching Carp Fishing videos and all of sudden I got to this shit!!!WTF this Ghetto story has to do with Carp Fishing???Mart'up You Tube!!!
