Exodus…

This happens twice a year, at Pchum Benh and for Khmer New Year: Phnom Penh comes to a standstill as it little by little empties itself from its inhabitants who join their families at their birthplace for the celebrations (see also here)… Needless to say that these population movements contribute generously to the already apalling number of traffic related deaths in the ‘Kingdom of Wonder’. As for me, I’ll be giving the credit cards a rubbing in Singapore…
