Translated from Khmer by Heng Soy
Rong Chhun, President of the Cambodia Independent Teachers’ Association (CITA), asked the government to take measure to rein in on inflation. In an open public letter issued Tuesday, Rong Chhun wrote that, after the government increased the salary of government workers and teachers by 20%, the inflation rate is much higher than the salary increase provided by the government. In his letter, Rong Chhun wrote that, the price of gasoline alone has increased to 4,800 riels (~$1.20) per liter. Rong Chhun asked the government to take appropriate measure to rein in the ever increasing inflation. There is no reaction from the government yet on Rong Chhun’s open letter.

good to have a teacher union, a voice for teachers!
Well, not all union are good. There are some bad one too, and this one is certainly bad.
We just gave them (corrupted teachers) undeserved raises, and now they want more? Forget about it. Inflation is worldwide, not just in Cambodia.
