Banana price rising
Both DAP-news and Cambodia Express News reported that the price of bananas has increased significantly today. Hordes of people are trying to buy banana, shooting the price of one hand of bananas to between 15,000 (~$4) and 25,000 riels (~$6). Bananas are used as offering to the deceased.

Dear Khmer compatriot brothers and sisters,
I fill very sorry for the incident at Koh Pich that Khmer have been suffering again and again; I wish Khmer stop having the tragedies like this from now on. However, what I can see, if Yourn are still behind Hun Sen government, used Hun Sen ‘s hands to help killing Khmer in many different ways like that, Khmer never stop being suffered. This happening, at Koh Pich, is not the final tragedy for Khmer citizen. I do not believe that it is a real accident disaster; it has to have somebody plan to work on it to kill Khmer citizen for weakening us. If my view is correct, you will see Khmer will have a lot more tragedies than this in the near future. Therefore in order to stop something happen like this is to Pull Hun Sen and his clans out of the government (it does not meter how we do it) and change its structure and policies.
What is the relation with banana price increase and corruption?
The banana price follow the market price like gold or oil depending on the demand.
Its not so much corruption as it is extortion by the banana sellers. What are people buying bananas for?? To use solely as offerings to the deceased of the Koh Pich tragedy. I understand that sellers are trying to make a profit for their own personal income, but by increasing the prices so much, they are totally disregarding any kind of social responsibility. Very disgusting display of inhumanity, really.
