Ken, yes there will always be the rich and the poor and both have different lifestyles but maybe you can have more compassion. If you think 100 USD a month is reasonable so be it but maybe you can give some benefits like healthcare or rice subsidy or a good working environment to alleviate their plight. But then again, most of the time, the rich have no idea how it feels like to survive at the very basic level.

Look at Ken, he's sweating so much, so privileged. I wish he can support his word "strive" by action. Stripe all his assets away and pay him factory wage and workload to see how he survives. I wonder what will he say then? and oh, why would he do that? It is just to proof his words aren't bullshit and unbiased, because an biased argument isn't an argument, it's an opinion.

I have higher education than factory workers, I'm privileged and get paid high salary - but even I don't earn $10 a day. Mind you, I only work 8.5 hours (officially - in practice it is more like 10 hrs) and my job isn't nearly as tiring... I support the notion of $180 a month, though: prices are rising rapidly so $160 isn't that much any more. But $160 - $200 is about what Cambodian teachers working in private schools earn, depending on what grade they teach.

This is an old vid, as of Jan 2018, but the issue is the same - industry will go wherever they can get the cheapest labor (and wherever they can get away with treating workers the way no unionised labor force would ever allow). Cambodia has one of the most corrupt governments anywhere in the world, and they know that if industry cant get away with such low wages in Cambodia, they will simply move production to Vietnam or Bangladesh or wherever they can get the job done cheaply and with minimal trouble from regulators. Those of us who dismiss conspiracy theorists need to look at how this continues to make the top 1% richer as the bottom 50% of the world slides further into the abyss.

And yet these women are the lucky ones. Many of the women especially from countryside do not have education and are barely literate: most of the time prostitution is the only option, if they cannot get work in a factory. Going back home is often not an option because of the humiliation and the demand to support their family. I'm watching this four years later and nothing has changed. More and more of people share their 3*3 m room, maybe working in different sifts and taking turns sleeping on the bed. Activists have been jailed, murdered and people's spirit crushed; workers are too scared to complain. And if you think those rooms are decent, well, I've slept in one several times, mice running over my body - cooking and washing up happens two steps away from a squat toilet. The room you see the injured man living is one of the better ones. But I've seen worse ones, like the enclosure 30 rooms with one shared toilet (with no door) and one big tub of water for cooking and washing for 6 months that gets stagnated. All washing is done on the courtyard, so you cannot take clothes off which is especially problematic for women's hygiene, especially for menstruating women. Drainage is often a problem especially during monsoon when the sewage can dome up into the flooded streets. Most small streets have no drainage at all, which adds to the risk of diseases. Unemployment is high, so boycotting Cambodian garment industry only hurts the poor workers if factories are closed.

Thanks for sharing this. I think a lot of the recent years poverty in Cambodia is caused by the Chinese having invaded Cambodia's economy under the corrupted approval of Hun Sen and let to run factories at no cost. All these cheap garments should not exist. The Chinese need be stopped and their number culled, like an invading swarm of invasive animals are culled. Cambodia used to be a French Colony and that time was a much better era for the country. There was no such abuses and the city of Phnom Penh was designed and build by the French. Cambodia should never have sought independence to become raided by the Chinese.

Kim is extremely biased on the people he represents, rich factories. The girl didn't take the offer isn't her fault. Have you thought about other circumstances like elders or children she had to support? Her situation forces her too. For example, say you have a child that needs milk, food, clothing, medicine, care services and etc, but someone else offer you full benefit of a free education or training or even a new life which will make your life happy and memorable without spending a penny, would you say yes under the circumstance that nodding your head would mean the end of that child life because you would not earn a penny to support him/her? Your life would be magnificent, but would the child's too? I understand your point, but just sometimes, DON'T BLAME THE VICTIMS, but change the system. It's okay for the way that you thought and I hope you can understand now, because how would you feel when someone say that you are horrible and say the words like "there's a reason why uneducated people think and live the way they do"? Don't blame the victims.

No, you Social Justice Warrior, changing the system to favor the weak is only going to perpetuate the flaws of the society. I'm willing to bet you are also in favor of a welfare state. I'm not "blaming the victim", instead I'm bringing up their responsibility, which you are trying so hard to deny. It's a fact, stupid people will never rise and they should't. Kim understands it, silly SJW like you obviously don't. I'll throw a pearl to pigs here: DON'T VICTIMIZE THE STUPID. Seriously. You might think their situation is not fair, but guess what? It is. It's a consequence of many generations of stupid decisions just like the one of declining education to support the lazy parents who actually had their kids as a retirement plan and now force them to work for the household. I don't expect a mangina like you to understand my point, so go have fun demanding a tax raise so the poor can afford not to work hard.

So...the presenter says that they are not showing the girls faces to protect their identity. But then shows where they are working. I think if someone from that factory was watching this it would be pretty easy to figure out who that was.

I hope Ken has received his karma. This documentary is now 5 years old and still reflects the incessant injustice to labourers. They get their hands dirty, are unfortunate human beings due to corruption in their country and render mass production for the brand, the company. This man's character make him look uneducated!!!

Way to go 101 East. Making these families lose much needed money. These companies have lied to the factory owners. They couldn't move anywhere that would cost less than $200 a month per employee. In the US that's still less than a weeks salary.

$3 for 10-16 hours per day, most of Cambodian people is like going to work in other neighboring country like Thailand, so they can learn at least 300 Thai Bart = $10 per day. No wonder about that right. It seem like the Cambodia government trying to force their citizen to get out from the country, and open the country for other foreigner to come. From some research and the reality when i go back to visit my country, about 50% of Cambodians are stay and work out from the country. I think the low wage in Cambodia is not only about the benefit but it is more and more than we can see and imagine...

Perhaps the ones who buy these garments at exorbitant prices, don't. The profit these monsters make is worse than theft. There needs to be fairness in this world. A share of the huge profit they sell these garments. Close the gap between those that have and those that don't

Please tell which companies/brands are contracting with these factories that shoot protestors. There are poor people and rich people but companies usually don’t open fire on protesting workers. Most poor people will work for low wages but that doesn’t mean inhumane wages.
