-bogus doctors
-dodgy pharmacies
-unlicensed or unmonitored practices
-over prescribing antibiotics

and a nationwide public awareness of health matters (at a modern standard, not 1970’s) wouldn’t go a long way towards achieving these sorts of goals.

Ok, I'm with you, but leaving aside the question of quacks and magic healing, let's get down to the nitty-gritty - how to maintain basic hygiene when, (as happens sometimes), you can't even wash your hands because there is no water (or the water that's available is dirtier than your hands)?
And before someone tells me that the tap water in PP is now lovely and clean, can I say in advance that in this is not the case everywhere in Cambodia (or even in PP) ?

No matter how many times I've heard the water is clean to drink, I just can't do it. I'm sure the 'water' is fine, it's the pipes they have to go through to get to my cup I'm worried about.
