The big C

This was going to be insightful but my Hotmail isn't working on this computer so I'm in a grump. So there.

Cambodia is poor, and so is Laos. However, it is obvious that here the poor are much poorer and the rich are much richer. There are lots of people around who seem to be doing alright for themselves, but there are also those around who have jack diddly.
Hopefully some of these people will get picked up as teh whole country improves.

Looking around you can see that the French spent much more time and effort and money here. Here being Phnom Pehn. Mostly it's the roads, but buildings and all that other infrastructure is of a much higher level here. So C gets the best, but also the worst and L gets to cruise along. PLeasantly communist with itself.

So there you go. Don't know what any of that was meant to say but it has been said.

Oh, and I bought a Snicker's Bar tonight. Yummy. You know you've learned teh value of money a bit more, when you spend 1/2 an hour debating whether you can justify 55 cents for a chocolate bar.
