~ $1 To $2 Per Day

One of the most popular workplaces for jobless and needy people is here, garbage dump at Steung Mean Chey district. It is located around 1 km from Steung Mean Chey bridge ( or around 3 km north of InterContinental Hotel. People usually gather very early in the morning or any time when the garbage trucks arrive. After trading, a family of two to three people get around $2 for the whole collections of the day which is enough for a kilo of rice and a pound of beef/bacon or a kind of vegetables. This means they cannot afford even a kid to school. Poor them!
