In developing countries, children, including those who have only committed minor offences, often serve their sentences in appalling conditions alongside adult prisoners. Photographer Matt Writtle travelled to Cambodia with the charity EveryChild and gained unique access to some of the country's provincial prisons and children incarcerated there. Here he tells their story.

it's sad to see small, innocent khmer children stay in jail with their mommy. perhaps because they have no where to go . in cambodiann society, children are very closed to their parents and relatives, especially to their mommy.
That is Cambodia under CPP. It is going to the "right" direction according to IRI survey and has "developed and prospered" every sectors according to propaganda media in Phnom Penh.
Khmer Riche, I bet you know this problems and give some thoughts about helping them to get scholarship to gain education, according to your interview with Andrew Marshal. Have you start on something yet? or you are too busy to ride around with your your new world class top vehicle mum and dad bought for you?
BTW, I hope Khmer in Sydney CBD would have something to say rather than cut and paste his old rubbish.
Wah wah wah! My Khmer don't deserved this kind of living standard. The government won't give you any penny at all.
Good Lord! Some of them don't even have rug ( Kontael ) or pillow? and they eat on the floor? It's better to eat in the middle of nowhere or along the rice field directly on the ground in Pol Pot time than to be in this filty place.
No wonder California State does just the opposit and spends a billion dollars a year to keep their prisoners healthy and safe. Those committed crime people just have lose their freedom to do thing, but not their good health and safety.
FREEDOM MEANS THE WORLD TO AMERICAN. God! we are so damm lag behind.
KHMER HAS FREEDOM OF LAW THAT WHY KIDS ARE IN JAIL BECOUSE THEY PICKUP SMALL PICESE OF WOOD BUT WHO EVER CUT ALL THE WOOD STAY OUT OF JAIL WHO WHO WHO WHO LOOK AT THE FAMILY DOG HUN SEN AND HIS PARTNERSHIP.ASK THE GLOBAL WITHNESE THEY TELL YOU.
PM is doing the right direction.
when People can't open their mouth to show their expression. Young Kids is in Prison instead of they are in special care. Human right is abused left and right, Kid is killed from day to day in Thai border. Youn invaded Khmer land, he did nothing to protect the poor villagers. Kiss my ass.
LIVE BY THE RULE, DIE BY THE RULE.
Cognac of Phnom Penh with Ah Yuon.
Cuffed Poor People day and night.
World Human Watch is closing 11 detention facilities throughout Cambodia. Officials should release them to protect our country. They seem not to care.
Can't blame anyone. This jail situation is the same every Khmer society,Sangkum reasniyum, Lon Nol and current government so, just pray for the best.
History will repeat.
Killing will come back.
Passed is forgotten and forgiven.
Thet Sambath has proved.He is friend with his father and brother murder.
