  • SEX INDUSTRY TOURISM. South East Asia, Cambodia, Phnom Penh. Taxi girls, prostitutes, serve foriegn tourists & Khmer, Cambodians. The sex industry is part of the fabric, servicing all classes of Cambodian society. Girls are forced into prostitution because of poverty and corruption that exists across the country. People might earn 1 to 2 $ per day, even less in rural areas, so the lure of prostitution is high. Families can sell young girls, virgins, for several hundred dollars. Cheap brothels line the streets in parts of the city centre, near railway tracks, and on the periphery. Sex for Cambodians at cheap prices in the street brothels, as low as 1 $ US, to exorbitant fees in penthouse hotel suites for the rich. Sex tourism industry attracts Western and Asian tourists typically paying 10 - 30 $ US. Expressions such as 'yam yam', eating, for a blowjob 'bam bam' for intercourse. There are 'lady-boys', youths, who use the money to pay for  sex change operations. Prostitutes spend lots of money on make-up, clothes, and mobile telephones. They live in squalor. Due to public advertising campaigns and outreach work, Aids and HIV cases have dramatically decreased, in Cambodia, since the late '90s. Condoms are encouraged, are cheap and widely available. This is seen as  a success story by medical and health authorities. There are risks as ex-prostitutes known as 'sweethearts' don't use condoms with their partners. Brothels, v & madams take their cut, but many taxi-girls work as free agents. Bars, pool halls or beer gardens have staff and taxi-girls available to service male clients, some work as barmaids or escorts. There is violence against prostitutes; gang-rape and murder by Khmer gangs. Once a girl has worked as a prostitute it is unlikely she can ever marry.///Red sheets with 'love' written all over them adorn a bed in a brothel aboove a bar in Phnom Penh

  • South East Asia, Cambodia, Phnom Penh. Khmer families and children love their pet dogs, and would never eat them<br />
<br />
Whilst some people eat dog meat, it is not commonplace. But it is a poorman's meat as it is a cheaper than beef, pork or chicken. The practice of hunting and catching stray dogs is common place, and sometimes even poaching domestic dogs. The Khmer prefer wild dog to 'farm' grown dogs. However the dogs are often treated inhumanely, and killed by strangulation or even boiled alive. It is thought by some that a dog filled with fear makes better meat. The animal is shaved and butchered. Favorite khmer dishes include dog paw curry and dog's head.<br />
<br />
Dog meat is eaten all over the world. An estimated 25 million dogs are eaten every year. For some societies eating dog is taboo, for others its acceptable.

  • A massive public rally "Cry for Freedom" takes place in central Paris on Sunday afternoon. "I love the police" slogan. The rally brought in people of all colors and creeds from both France and abroad. Many were carrying placards with various slogans. This demonstration happened the weekend after armed gunmen attacked the offices of Charlie Hebdo, killing twelve people, including the editor and celebrated cartoonists; four more are in critical condition. It is the dealiest terror attack in France for over fifty years. Charlie Hebdo is a satirical publication well known for its political cartoons. The jihadists responsible were killed by police in several shootouts on the Friday afternoon. <br />
<br />
As a solidarity actions with the deaths at Charlie Hebdo many placards read "Je suis Charlie" translating as "I am Charlie (Hebdo)". Demonstrators held aloft pens, brushes and crayons, symbolizing the profession of journalists and cartoonists who were killed. Many pens were placed in a shrine with candles in the square. Some protesters also refused to ally themselves with Charlie Hebdo.

  • SEX INDUSTRY TOURISM. South East Asia, Cambodia, Phnom Penh. Taxi girls, prostitutes, serve foriegn tourists & Khmer, Cambodians. The sex industry is part of the fabric, servicing all classes of Cambodian society. Girls are forced into prostitution because of poverty and corruption that exists across the country. People might earn 1 to 2 $ per day, even less in rural areas, so the lure of prostitution is high. Families can sell young girls, virgins, for several hundred dollars. Cheap brothels line the streets in parts of the city centre, near railway tracks, and on the periphery. Sex for Cambodians at cheap prices in the street brothels, as low as 1 $ US, to exorbitant fees in penthouse hotel suites for the rich. Sex tourism industry attracts Western and Asian tourists typically paying 10 - 30 $ US. Expressions such as 'yam yam', eating, for a blowjob 'bam bam' for intercourse. There are 'lady-boys', youths, who use the money to pay for  sex change operations. Prostitutes spend lots of money on make-up, clothes, and mobile telephones. They live in squalor. Due to public advertising campaigns and outreach work, Aids and HIV cases have dramatically decreased, in Cambodia, since the late '90s. Condoms are encouraged, are cheap and widely available. This is seen as  a success story by medical and health authorities. There are risks as ex-prostitutes known as 'sweethearts' don't use condoms with their partners. Brothels, v & madams take their cut, but many taxi-girls work as free agents. Bars, pool halls or beer gardens have staff and taxi-girls available to service male clients, some work as barmaids or escorts. There is violence against prostitutes; gang-rape and murder by Khmer gangs. Once a girl has worked as a prostitute it is unlikely she can ever marry.///Red sheets with 'love' written all over them adorn a bed in a brothel aboove a bar in Phnom Penh.

  • April, 4th 2020 - Paris, Ile-de-France, France: Latin Quarter, love padlocks on bridge over seine during the first month of near total lockdown imposed in France. A week after President of France, Emmanuel Macron, said the citizens must stay at home for at least 15 days, that has been extended. He said "We are at war, a public health war, certainly but we are at war, against an invisible and elusive enemy". All journeys outside the home unless justified for essential professional or health reasons are outlawed. Anyone flouting the new regulations is fined. Nigel Dickinson

  • South East Asia, Cambodia, Phnom Penh. Khmer families and children love their pet dogs, and would never eat them<br />
<br />
Whilst some people eat dog meat, it is not commonplace. But it is a poorman's meat as it is a cheaper than beef, pork or chicken. The practice of hunting and catching stray dogs is common place, and sometimes even poaching domestic dogs. The Khmer prefer wild dog to 'farm' grown dogs. However the dogs are often treated inhumanely, and killed by strangulation or even boiled alive. It is thought by some that a dog filled with fear makes better meat. The animal is shaved and butchered. Favorite khmer dishes include dog paw curry and dog's head.<br />
<br />
Dog meat is eaten all over the world. An estimated 25 million dogs are eaten every year. For some societies eating dog is taboo, for others its acceptable.
