Cambodia is one of southeast Asia's poorest countries, and that poverty has forced many parents to take their children out of school and send them to work.
But the country is experiencing something of a construction boom.
And that means many children are ending up on building sites or in factories, where the work is dirty and dangerous.
Fauziah Ibrahim reports from Battambang province, where hundreds of children are now risking their health and their lives, working in brick kilns.
