20100211-Village life in cambodia

In the last week.as a photographer.
i have been learned more about the village life in cambodia.
i'm very sad about it!


here,sure you also can take lots of photos in village.


you may also can see people going to die.


most family's home is more worse than this!


people they never use lock on the door in the village,
cause here is really not much to steal.


90% of kitchen is like this.
some just in the outside.


the kids have to do lots of housework,even cooking.
to support their family.that's why they can't afford to the school.


because of poor,family they can't afford the pill or condom.a family they normaly have 6 to more than 10 kids.
they just pay 5 dollars to hire someone born baby in the home, some kids and mother die due to less medication.


filmed 8 family's story,
almost them cried so much when they start to tell the story.


the children living in this situation,it's quite concerned.
if they can't have education,some of them maybe just sold by the family to pay debt,or being abused.


people have to carry water everyday from other places.
some of family not even have electricity!


still more and more new baby was born!


villagers harvest morning glory.
this plant before price was 2000 riel per kilo.
now they only can sell by 300 riel per kilo.
the villagers is hardly to get finacial balance.


for some young girl's destiny is more concerned.
in cambodia,you can't believe 1 dollar you may sleep a cambodia girl.
some girls have forced to have 30-50 customers per night! untill to die!

as a photographer,i record what i saw,what i hear,what i feel,
i'm really sad about the kids and family here in the village in cambodia.
because not enough education and being poor & unhappy,
some family members start to abuse their wife and kids.
or acting like money headed.they just want money.
sometimes they even do things stupid like borrow the dear money and run away,left their family and kids.
or became drunk everyday,
or sell the family members,
some of the family they really hard working every day
but they may can not pay the debt in a whole life!

i'm realy sad about this what happened in cambodia.
i hope more people come to help,

we only have one earth.
we only have one life!
what we can do to make a better world?
i only believe that love can make a difference!
