SRP Litter Collection Is a Positive Thing

Battambang provincial authorities should not be worried by SRP youth supporters running a campaign to collect litter in Battambang town.

This action will not have a negative effect on society. It helps clean the environment and improves sanitation and hygiene, both of which help Cambodia's Ministry of Rural Development and Ministry of Environment.

Even if they were wearing SRP insignia, the litter collectors still helped raise awareness about the environment. We should welcome all youth from any political party—CPP, Funcinpec, SRP, NRP, and HRP—or NGOs who want to contribute to social work.

In the past the Cambodian Red Cross youth and Cambodian Scouts have helped in a lot of social work, such as being traffic guides on weekends. Social work in Cambodia is badly needed regardless of political affiliation, religion, or whether they are from the public or private sector, in order to improve society.
