Predicting an increase in Crimes

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Predicting an increase in Crimes

Post by flying chicken »

This might be obvious to some of you, but it is worth sharing. The continuous rise of inflation, high cost of living combined with stagnant salaries expect to see more crimes in the near future.

I have seen 3 petty crimes committed (out of hunger) in the last 7 days alone. In term of inflation, according to my calculation price of food at the local markets in my neck of the wood has increased at least by 15% and as high as 50% in the last 9 months.

In my case, we are very frugal in what we spend daily but we always ended up spending at least 30,000 riel foods alone, and I only eat once a day, twice at most.
