Hahaha... I said I do know your meaning. " teach someone how to fish or give fish to someone, which one is better?". It is what we are talking about.Username Taken wrote:They don't have to fish.prahkeitouj wrote:I do understand, but I don't think they can help those children how to fish.Username Taken wrote:Giving money to children just encourages them to keep begging.prahkeitouj wrote:Give or not is depend on us, a good- hearted can't stop giving.Samouth wrote:
i think if you stop giving money there will no beggar
Give them money today, and they'll be back for more tomorrow, and the next day, and the day after that, and . . .
They will grow up believing that begging is the only way for them to survive.
Better to teach them how to fish.
Shame! Our ancestors will cry if they see Cambodian beggars in the wonderful temples.
They can grow and sell veges.
They can exchange some chicken / duck eggs for some lessons in reading / computer / etc.
OK, maybe it sounds too idealistic, but the point is that they DO have alternatives. Whether that involves fishing or not, is irrelevant.
Today's begging kid = tomorrow's moto thief getting beaten to death.
I think they should ban the beggars to beg in the temples better than tell the tourists to stop giving money to them. I think at least children should draw pictures, play music or use any skill to earn money better beg money.

^^^ Yeah, but, many of those 'beggars' live within the heritage park area.

Yes, that is what I think they can't help them how to fish. If they have skill , they won't want to be beggars.Username Taken wrote:^^^ Yeah, but, many of those 'beggars' live within the heritage park area.

So, they need to learn new skills. Painting, or carving, or weaving, or something that they can 'sell' to the tourists rather than money for nothing.
btw, there is no such word as can't. They 'can'. If they really want to.

Stop! Says Apsara Authority
Cambodia Breaking News (Siem Reap): The Apsara authority are having to remind people to behave again. They are having problems to stop the public from eating, drinking, and littering the area in front of the Angkor Wat.
Some people have been sitting on the grass in front of the Angkor Wat area, eating, drinking, and playing loud music, and most of all leaving the area covered with trash. This is unbecoming for a place of pilgrimage such as Angkor Wat and insults the Khmer civilization. It looks bad and is disrespectful.
The Apsara Authority have requested to all people to appreciate and preserve the environment of the Angkor Wat Temple and to stop eating and drinking alcohol on the grass and to stop littering.
Also, the Apsara authority prohibits any activity that is destructive to the Angkor Wat area.

All locals. They should charge them 5000 Riel or something to get in, that would stop them having so many picnics there.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Aspara Authority enforces food ban
The Apsara Authority yesterday warned that authorities have started taking action against those who consume food or alcohol at the Angkor Wat moat, Prohm Kel temple and Trapaing Ses pond in defiance of a prohibition which came into effect on Tuesday.
The ban also applies to food vendors who ply their trade in the area, but not those who have been allowed to operate stalls there.
In August, the Apsara Authority issued the prohibition, but allowed a 45-day grace period for vendors and tourists to comply.
Long Kosal, Apsara Authority spokesman, yesterday said the prohibition applies to activities such as selling food, selling or putting up mats or hammocks, having loudspeakers and consuming alcohol around the Angkor Wat moat and other areas.
He said following Tuesday’s expiry of the grace period, Apsara along with relevant police units and local authorities are sending working groups to the ground until Monday to flush out, educate and warn vendors who are not complying with the ban.
