Police will be deployed to guesthouses in Phnom Penh today, and at least one school has asked authorities to crack down on flower sellers in a bid to prevent young lovers indulging in Valentine’s Day activities including sex.
The Phnom Penh municipal authority announced yesterday it would order “all guesthouses and hotels in Phnom Penh” to strengthen security to avoid “anarchy” on a day that is increasingly popular across Cambodia.
Mak Hong, police chief of the capital’s Sen Sok district, said he would send officers to guesthouses and Phnom Penh municipal police chief Touch Naruth has ordered owners to ensure couples who check in today are over 18.
“We just want to prevent anarchy,” Touch Naruth said.

PHNOM PENH (Kyodo) -- Cambodian authorities have launched a publicity campaign to curb sex among young people and students during St. Valentine's Day celebrations as the government seeks to limit unwanted pregnancies among young girls.
Sivann Botum, secretary of state for Women's Affairs, told Kyodo News that the ministry has produced a 30-minute video aimed at educating youth on the meaning of St. Valentine's Day within the context of the Khmer culture.
"Some young people do not understand the meaning of St. Valentine's Day, and they date and spend their time together in hotels and guest houses," she said.
Celebrations of St. Valentine's Day on Feb. 14 have become increasingly popular among the nation's youth and some students skip classes to go on a date.

Fearing the spread of HIV/AIDS during the upcoming Valentine's Day in Cambodia, a non-governmental organization in cooperation with Cambodian authorities is ready to distribute free of charge of 20,000 condoms.
Chhim Sarath, director of Aids Health Care Foundation, said Friday that his organization will distribute as many as 20,000 condoms to the public during the Valentine's Day which will start from Saturday through Sunday.

Chhim Sarath said the main target of the distributions will be teenagers to alert them the awareness of the spread of HIV/AIDS and to avoid themselves from this deadly disease infection.

According to the government's statistics, the prevalence of infection rate has declined from 2 percent in 2006 to 0.9 percent in 2008 for adults aged 15 and 49, and is expected the rate will further decline to 0.6 percent by 2012.
