Business & Economics, Cambodia, Education, Photo, Politic, Social & Culture 9 Comments »

I was invited by my friends to join a group of tourists to visit Stueng Mean Chey, Phnom Penh city’s dump site. It was one of list item on the place to visit, so I joined them. The purpose of this visit is to deliver food, and basic medical care to people who live on the dump site. This is a routine trip for the organizer to the place. I’ve been told that the dump site has been closed, some how these people still live there.
