ARCHIVED PROJECTS: "AIDS in South-Eastern Asia" by Angel Navarrete: Tuol Sambo, Cambodia

In June 2009, Cambodian authorities using force have resettled 20 HIV-affected families from Borei Keila an area in Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia, to the Tuol Sambo- place located 25 kilometres from Phnom Penh. Families are accomodated in metal sheds, without

running water and basic sanitary facilities. They are baking hot in the daytime. Many of them used to work in Phnom Penh as motorcycle taxi drivers, cleaners and dressmaker. They cannot find a job at Tuol Sambo and travel to Phnom Penh costs about $5 which is too much for people who earn $1.5-$3 a day.
