Cambodia Quest for Land5
The land near the new National Assembly, along the Bassac river is under heavy pressure from real estate developers. The areas where many hundreds of families were living in slum-like conditions are being cleared to make way for ambitious land development. One slum after another is emptied from its inhabitants, many of them living there since more than a decade and needing the proximity of the town to survive. Dey Krohom (Red Soil) is no exception. All the inhabitants are relocated on the outskirts of town, sometimes, for the owners of a plot of land, with a compensation. For the renters there is usually no compensation.
