Immigration, customs and not on our e-visa to criticize, however, a border police officers near edge or on our daily wage laborer with kids to Cambodia slightly surprised: what's the fun of Cambodia? I said: because there is Angkor VAT!

Yes, the reason why we remember as a child, Cambodia is where there is war, the Khmer Rouge, Sihanouk. However, when these are gradually go away over time, our 80 after, 90 after why should know this lonely little bang? because there's a Angkor VAT Ah!!, from Phnom Penh International Airport on the TUTU car all the way into the city in the desert travel, direct to the buzz of the bus station. --That is, in fact, Phnom Penh and the station without our sense of the bus station. Various bus companies located a ticket, passengers waiting in the car to the gate. So, I could not before it is able to buy tickets. But the plane did not delayed, we arrived at the station very smooth. There is ample time, sitting on a car, we have started a six-hour journey. Phnom Penh to Siem Reap and not far away, 350 km, but there is no motorway in Cambodia, so the car can stop, and ran for six hours. Despite the evening lights in Siem Reap. Along the way and there is not much of the city. Therefore, the car has little opportunity to stop carrying passengers. Car companies have designated parking to rest along the way. I pictured dancing and mosquitoes, prepared the adequate protective equipment. However, here is my first visit to Cambodia. They stop to rest and although quite simple, but the toilet is clean and tidy, and could not find him on the nose. I see the flies, but there is no more to me difficult to resist. In fact, I was in Cambodia for five days, actually no mosquito bites. Perhaps here the mosquitoes too, not seen China's essential balm flavor. The Lake is full of mosquitoes in the evolution of the fast. The first impression, let me relax next spirits. In fact, the tourism is crazy about me is that these do not have them you cannot be felt. We often blame the West for our biased. In fact, the bias in the minds of all people. Haven't Cambodia's Chinese, how many will think their road side of the toilet is clean our Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou roadside toilets, Xi'an to Yan'an roadside toilet? indeed, Cambodia will be better for China to poor, but they cannot make me despise because they at least clean toilets. Siem Reap is already a considerable international tourist destination. Local drivers Basic can speak simple English. There are many efforts are being made for learning Chinese. We stay in the hotel and Somadevi clean and beautiful. As long as 320 RMB. On the ground can also be very easy to find clean and tidy hotel. Completely do not need to worry for health. Of course, as in Phnom Penh to Siem Reap's Road, where the roads worse. Over these four words used here is very pertinent. Later we learned that even so, most international assistance. Pavement direct see donor's strength and style. Then listen to drivers, no.6 Highway into Siem Reap it is Japan's repaired, pavement flat is better than other sections. Korea also contributed a section to female Palace Road. Roadside Streetlight pretty new, but in this place, it seems out of place. Angkor VAT of tickets is only sold to foreigners. Large and small monuments of Angkor Wat is the repair of international assistance. Remember Athens temples in order to thank the EU proceeds to inquire of all EU students. However, Angkor Wat does not seem to be so grateful. Only for children under 12 years of fare. Because it is in accordance with the age between the Chinese child height often let Cambodians cannot confirm his age, so carry a passport is required. Siem Reap the local kids were very small, like the side of the cattle, was very weak. Cow's weak because of the dry season there is no better water. Then the child's income push blow because of malnutrition. Angkor VAT price is not low. The famous Angkor Wat is not bad in the West. Angkor VAT of tickets as basic and scenic, and they receive international assistance goes far beyond this Xichuan Jiuzhaigou is beyond doubt. So why are their people or so poor? in Siem Reap package TUTU car experience may be black dots. Our daily 10 dollars package a motorized tricycle because the Angkor monuments too attractive, in fact, we go in a temple, good long time to come. A total of 20 km a day. The driver is in the doorway shuttlecock waiting for us. Therefore, from the price per kilometre, above their price is not cheap, but their per capita income is too low. This is a very good to first year students of economics. Take a look at the difference between GDP and benefits, see how to increase the resource allocation, the GDP of a country to see continued growth in the how to achieve? second possible answer to the question from the Government. We constantly complain that the Cambodian Government not to repair the road. In fact, because the Government rarely taxed on drivers. Drivers a year just to pay 60 dollars. US $ 360 a year Che chuanshui, local Commission paid fare 660 (Hangzhou, not one), there is a road toll, fortunately just canceled, otherwise also to 2400. On the road going to pay a fee. Cambodia's national highway or ill or free of charge. So it seems that the Cambodian Government is an omission of small government. What is the big government, or small government. Different people answer is not the same. Visitors, perhaps think that the Chinese Government. Locals? of course the Cambodian Government is not a clean small government. According to driver, Angkor VAT management is a private company contracted by the huge amount of tickets revenue (estimated at 40 million dollars) has not been received. The company turned over to the State seems to be only 100 million dollars. No wonder that in remote point on the edge of attractions, but also the small school, thatch and this, or non-governmental organizations, donor. Cambodia's agricultural resources, and rich. However, next door to Thailand for a year three quarter of riceThey just kind of a quarter. Why because they had no water facilities. The dry season, the land is incurable. From here, we once again moved the role of Government. In fact, our daily in complaining that the Chinese Government's corruption. We should also look at effective as of the Chinese Government. Although a high cost.
