Nowadays, although there are a lot of organizations and centre of educations where help orphans and poor people in Phnom Penh, but I have still seen some beggars along the streets begging for money from travelers at the traffic lights, from guests at the restaurants, at the national museum, on the public gardens, or at tourism places. What measure is the government taking to protect or reduce beggars in Phnom Penh?
There are many cases which make them to do this because they are unemployed, have got a lot of children, low educations, homeless, or lazy. Therefore, there are strategies to make money such as forcing their children to beg, holding their small babies and asking for money or playing a trick on foreigners by sticking bandage on their children’s arm, leg, or head.
The first thing that I would like to talk is beggars on the street especially at the traffic lights. How to earn their money like brushing cars which stop for a moment at the traffic light with their own feather and sometimes holding small infants in order to ask for money. I know that this action is not absolutely illegal, but it looks effecting to republic disciplines such as being traffic jam and looking impolite for passengers or tourists.

In the last decades, the telecommunication sector in Cambodia is growing remarkably and the Kingdom has yet to enact cyber law to prevent against the computer-based crime which is threatening Cambodia’s digital security connecting with the globe.
During a workshop at the Council of Ministers’ building in Phnom Penh, foreign and domestic experts also warned that Cambodia was not immune to malicious attempts to spread viruses and steal information.
In the last few years, several websites of government and private websites were hacked. By the way, Cambodia has no legislation specifically related to cyber crimes.
It is noticed that several ASEAN nations have already enacted specific laws on the issue. Even though, there is no specific law to tackle computer-based offenses in Cambodia, such crimes are to some extent recognized by Article 427 to 430 of the Crime Code covering information and computer technology.

Taxpayer shall do its self-assessment of income and other necessary entries in a modern tax system of Cambodia today. It means that taxpayers under the real tax regime shall declare tax payment to pay taxes themselves at the General Tax Department of Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF). This will maintain a fair and equitable tax administration among taxpayers.
Today, Cambodia’s economy is growing after the world economic crisis and business activities become more active and tax compliance become more important for the tax authorities to increase its tax revenue. Private companies under real tax regime shall declare tax by themselves while companies provided tax services also increasingly enter into the taxation service industry. As example, Singly Enterprise has also entered into the market by providing tax services such as (1) providing tax training, (2) advising on Cambodian taxation law, (3) declaration of tax returns, monthly and yearly with tax authorities, (4) tax planning so as to make sure that your company transactions is structured in an efficient manner and (5) providing support and communicate with tax authorities.

Rat is the kind of rodent that always damage stuff and property in house and people always hate and try to kill them but the kind of wild or field rat meat is becoming food for people in rural areas. By the way, rat meat has been sold in the market. Do you like to eat field rat meat? Do not ask me about that. I feel nauseous when I saw its meat. By the way, I do not dare to kill it as well.
Recently, I met my wife’s uncle who used to live in Poil Pot and he told me that there are sales of rat meat in Poil Pot but not all field rats. Some rats were caught from the market, it means that rats live and eat rubbishes at market stalls.
People families living over there caught them in market and mixed with field rats in order to sell on the market. At that time, buyers always thought that all rat meats are the kind of field rats that just eat only small insects and plants as foods. In fact, it is the kind of rat living in market or house.
That is what I heard from my uncle. When you want to buy field meat, you should be careful about that.
