Translated from Khmer by Heng Soy


Tea Phalla, the deputy director of the National Authority for the fight against AIDS, declared that, in 2008, the PSC organization performed a study in which it found that, daily, Cambodians spent $100,000 to have sex outside of their home (extra-marital sex?), and during each night 20 to 30,000 intercourses are taking place. These statistics show that Cambodia is not a poor country at all. Tea Phalla added that this study indicated that 10% of the youth between the age of 15 and 49 have sex outside of their home, this number climbs to 36% for the 15-24 age group. The preceding number applies mainly to men because only 1% of these numbers are applicable to women. Among women serving in karaoke bars, 14% are dating students. Tea Phalla revealed these statistics on 14 Feb, during his participation to a Valentine day event titled “Truth and misconception regarding sex among the youths.” The event was organized at the Cambodia-Japan cooperation center by the Association for health development where more than 300 students from 20 institutions participated.

$100,000 x 365 = $36,500,000
Cambodia has spent $36.5 Mil. per year for SEX. This year, when Hun Sen goes bagging, the international givers must consider $36.5 Mil. less.

What? Between 15 and 49 are considered to be youth! GDP is based on how much money people are spending on sex! I might have to write a letter to the president of the United States to stop bail out the auto companies and banks, but to spend on prostitutions instead. How about that for life!

Actually,

Youth is between 15 - 35 year of age. In the North America, when you are older than 35, you are considered to be an accountable adult. I know because I'm less than 35 and they consider me as a young member of the new generation (banks, unibersities, and goverment).

That's Hun Sen regime.
That's what they call "development".

Cambodia is not poor at all for spending $100,000 a night on prostitutes. Can't we think that there are also at least 5000 girls each night at least selling their body to survive?
They have only looking the number of dollars but didn't look at the number of girls who have damaged their pride, prestige and dignity.
That is why all Cambodian trees have all destroyed for only dollars and didn't think that Cambodia has lost her great forestry. Areak Prey

This is Ah Scam Rainxy's good paying jobs for Khmer people. He doesn't like them working in manufacturing, and he had driven hundreds of our manufacturing company out of Cambodia because it doesn't pay as well.

11"02, does pride, prestige and dignity as you suggested feed their hungry stomach? Does it pay rent, buy clothes, afford basic things to live? Does it allow them to send money home to help their family with their basic living expenses back in the country side?

When you don't have money, the last thing you want to worry about is prestige. So if you are so chhkout and pleur, shut the fuck up, and go fuck your mom.

Geez, can't believe how some people are this pleur? Maybe ah Khmer overseas are the ones that introduce hard core sex to corrupt the young minds of Khmer children.

Dear Poster Wayarop, I hope that one day you will find that you sleep with your own daughter in the Sex shop then you will find that prestige, pride and dignity is all about. At present you enjoy sleeping with other children and other people wives. Buddha has said that you will reap the seed you have sowed. please make sure each time you go for sex, has a light to make sure that the girl you are going to sleep is not your own daughter.

Dear Areak Prey

Maybe you just come out of the Prey, that's why your sense of life in the modern age is so out of line. Here's a lesson for you: ask the girls if they rather work til exhaustion at the car washing shops, picking rubbish, selling fruitcake, or would they rather spend one day and earn about 2 or 3 months of wages working a job with "prestige, dignity, and pride" picking rubbish, washing cars, and be slave to other businessmen. Ask them.

The fact is no one put a gun to their head to do this, but it is a choice really. Why should you distinguish prostitution as a profession from other job?

As a jungle man, I don't expect you to have such understanding anyway. Go back to where you come from, and say hi to Marcel the monkey for me.

Wayarop.

This is the way to compensate for the closure of the garment factories.

The study did not include the elites who spend US$300 -700 per intercourse with their mistress.

Let assume that we have 0.1 million elites in the population and each of them have sex one a month outside their home. each could have spend $450 a month on average. So for 0.1 million, it would be 45 million a month - 1.5 million daily.

They need about 0.1 million virgins every month and the number of intercourse is underestimated depending on how strong each elite is.

Virgins in Cambodia is depleting due to the population is not able to produce enough for the demands - so they go underage.

After a 30 times sex, the victims go into prostitution and start getting money from the low status one -20-30 per night to 5000 Riel per time. According to the study most low status sex seekers find the elite genital to be much bigger than their own ones.

2:26 speaking about modern age and people are getting smarter and wiser about how we treat and feel for each other. Your comment is no place in this civil and modern society. Your suggestion for women including your own daughters and sisters to take up prostitution career has earned the mentality as old as prostitution itself.
