  • Newborn baby with her grandmother on a train. The baby undergoes a traditional Kruu medicine treatment. A concoction of powders are placed on her 'middle eye' and a place where it is considered to be the soft part of the babies skull, to harden it. ..Touth Koeun, an ex-Khmer Rouge child soldier turned midwife and trainer, is on the frontline again, but this time campaigning on maternity issues, in Preah Vihear province, Cambodia. The country experiences an extraordinarily high incidence of infant and maternal mortality. The Preah Vihear province, in Cambodia's north, bordering on the Thai border, can be described as an outback rural area, villages often many hours away from a health centre or clinic, and sometimes near the frontline where soldiers and their families are living. Here, Touth Kouen, a locally much respected pioneer and experienced in maternity issues, trains indigenous women, known as 'Traditional Birth Attendants' (TBA's), correct procedures to assist midwives and nurses, to give direct support to mothers and their babies, during ante and post natal periods. Traditional bush medicine and spiritual practices by 'Kruu' bush doctors, involving the killing of endangered species, gathering herbs and plants, whose burnt remains are often ground up into unhealthy potions, and fed to mothers as miracle cures, and postpartum heating, can cause illness and death. The Kruu, and local people in general need to be re-educated, so as to create a healthy nurturing environment for mothers and their babies. Preah Vihear Province, Cambodia

  • ROYAL CAMBODIAN RAILWAYS. The journey from Phnom Penh to Battambang is the last working route. A passenger train, operates only at weekends. A Czech made diesel locomotive, leaves the capital Saturday morning, arriving in Battambang 22 hours later in the dead of night, and returns on Sunday. Max speed is about 30kmh, often slower due to the track's terrible condition. Carriages are dilapidated, with holes in the floor and only spaces for windows. Passengers sit or sleep on hardwood bench seats, hammocks, or on the floor of cargo carriages. The drivers, controllers & guards add to their small monthly pay by charging for local passengers and cargo; from motor bikes and local produce to timber loaded aboard at the 30 stations along the route. This together with other trains and farm vehicles further slows the journey. In rural areas, the track is a lifeline, and used for local transport on 'bamboo trains' powered by belt-motors, or pushcarts. Boom towns, with a 'goldrush mentality' near the rapidly depleted rainforest, are a hive of activity, with logging as their resource, where children workers even gamble away their earnings on cardgames. In the city, the railway has a life of its own, where people live and work nearby or on the track itself. Market stalls, restaurants, chairs and tables, are removed only briefly, when the infrequent train passes!///Yun Toeun, aged 53 years, with her one month old baby granddaughter, Ratchana
