What "back to normal" are you referring to? Nothing is back to normal. There is nothing normal at all right now.Phnom Poon wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 7:39 pm the last thing cambodia should be doing is opening international borders just yet
much of the economic damage has come from the rest of the world shutting down
locally, it's schools and entertainment shutting down, and people just staying at home
but otherwise, it seems to be almost getting back to normal already
no need to risk new imports
What you actually mean is that you are content to live in the current bubble. Basically an attitude of "I've got mine. Let everyone else eat cake." Marie Antionette would be proud. How long do you think you can enjoy your current bubble while subjecting millions to even worse poverty than they experienced before the lockdown? 1 year? 5 years? At what point do you admit we took the wrong path as a society?
How many more people have to suffer under these border closures, lack of business and lack of tourism so you can enjoy the new bubble? And for how long? When does the callousness stop?
There is no "normal" here at all. This is very, very abnormal, and it needs to stop now.

calm down
i mean that most markets, shops etc are working as normal, the streets are full of traffic, etc
schools and entertainment being the obvious exception
they should consider opening that up now there are no cases
people aren't moving around as much, but are already much less fearful
'almost' may have been a stretch, but they are 'getting' back to normal
the other stuff that's shut down is due to no tourists, no orders from abroad, ie due to the rest of the world
that wouldn't be fixed by just opening borders, and would risk importing infections, and bring back fear

I liked this idea of having a thread with only information about Cambodia, but it's constantly OT, so becoming useless. If you're not in Cambodia and don't want to talk about Cambodia, then please don't derail this thread; ignore this, and go to another corona thread that deals with whatever you want to say.

He was probably a repatriated migrant worker. I read somewhere that Cambodia is now letting all migrant workers return. For a while HE had told them all to stay put, but I guess since there are now zero cases here, they are bringing them back and checking them for coronavirus. We can expect more cases as more workers return.

hmmm, possibly, but from what i understand, there are few jobs in phils, cant see them accepting migrant workers with basic skills when they dont have jobs for themselves?
