2007 Winning photo of the Social Environment Category

'Foraging' by Stuart Meikle
Social Environment Category Winner


The Social Environment winner was British photographer Stuart Meikle. He captioned the picture Foraging.

It was taken at the Stung Meanchey garbage dump in Phnom Pehn, Cambodia where the poorest of the poor are forced to scavenge the stinking rubbish for recyclable materials which they can sell.

Workers include young children, where typical daily income is around 50p and who risk contracting deadly diseases from the rubbish.

That is what Ah Savage killer Xam Rainxy wants for our children if we don't vote for him.

The mad monster must be stopped at all cost.

Is it by nature there must be poor people and there must be rich people in the world?

Nobody can tell or even dare to Hun Sen what to do and not even to tell him to save young dirt poor Cambodian children!

What? The only reason we don't see this in the US is because they make it inaccessible to people.

That is what Ah Savage killer ah Kwak HunSen has done for our children and will continue his impunity regime for next 30 years without any progress; we the Khmer people will stuck in time: the poor and feeble will be left behind. Billions of dollars will be pocketed in the CPP officials and its cronism.

The mad monster must be stopped at all cost.

Hun Xen's dogs called it economic growth. It grows fast in every sector such as maltreating poor people sector, depriving people of their land sector, prostitute sector, etc.
