The True Cost Of Turning Lakes Into Land In Cambodia | True Cost

I had no idea that people couldn't even own land until 2001!! I'm only 3min into the video and very glad I clicked on it, it's been on my recommended list for 3 weeks and I kept scrolling past it as I've never travelled further east than Montenegro. What happened in this country that went from living in a tradition way to destroying lakes locals rely on so much, to build luxury property? Who's buying the property, locals or immigrants from the west? Is the tourism growing this much?

@RikHendriksDutchCo Жыл бұрын

@@anabellepreis1920 that's hard to tell who's buying it. Foreigners can only buy property first floor and up. Or you need a company with a Khmer national and cannot own more than 49%. If I look at sihanoukville once a small seaside town, I can't believe my eyes. Same thing happened there. Now countless skeletons of unfinished large buildings are just standing there. The investors fled. In Phnom Penh a lot of condos are sitting empty. I can't wrap my head around it😕

That's because people kept allowing government interfere in every aspect of society! The speech has been altered to appease certain groups, even a definition of a woman has been changed officially vocabularies! Some pawn in a form of an awkward child pressed on feelings and people then convinced their governments to tax them into poverty to stop the sun from being hot! The ones that keep pushing the boundaries will keep doing so, unless a small percentage of people that see through all the lies do something. The most awful thing is, the majority of sheep that either see how messed up this is and do nothing because they're too lazy, too dependent on the system, or don't understand anything and believe the lies to the point where they start abusing anyone that doesn't agree with the narrative they're used to. Finally, I think it's time for each person to accept a simple fact - everything that's good and bad that happened is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY and only you can make it worse or better. Stop relying others, especially government that never has or will care about you, and start surrounding yourself with people with same values and goals, form a community and grow. I don't see any other way.

@Lay Sophanna Are you in Cambodia or not? Why don't you know that Japan also involves the projects with the government to help Cambodia to prevent the flood when it's heavy raining? The project also finished last year. The lake prevents flood, Are u kidding me? When the lake is fully in water and the rain keeps falling down, then it's still flooding everywhere. Do some homework to know the truth. Don't be ignorant by the fake news.

The leaks that government turning into land was a toxic black sewage waste water. Some leak are natureal but peoples there doesn't know how to protect the nature, They release dirty water, poops into the leaks.This is not a natural water that peoples can uses or make any farm on it. The leakes also created bad environment, bad smell and damage health of the peoples living around too. So the government have to do their job to make the development. I understand what "Insider Business" worring but They're make up story and pretending love the nature by mix fake story with true story. That's not a good way and i hated to see they're trying to spread fake news to the world.

I've been aware of the "sand timer" problem for a few years now, but I've never witnessed in such unleashed exploitative and vicious vision of capitalism. I try my best to believe that humanity is not strictly bound to good or evil, but when I when I see such unbridled robbery of the very sand and water which people have built their lives on for hundreds of years it really makes me scratch my head at the deeply problematic and saddening potentials of the greed of humanity. Can we please just start mining asteroids, watching this happen everywhere is too much for my tiny little mind to cope with or comprehend.

This is so damn sad… and all for what? Personal and private benefit. Selling the public good that supports the livelihood of already marginalized communities to further constrain them from supporting themselves. From a social and environmental perspective, the future of communities around these lakes is not looking like a prospective world class city …
