This was a marginal increase from an International Labor Organization (ILO) annual world employment outlook released in January, which showed Cambodia’s unemployment rate as being 0.5 percent...
The report, which was a collaborative effort between the ministry, ILO and various other labor groups, did not detail how they classified employed and employed Cambodians nor did it reveal its methodology.
However, a local media organization quoted a 2013 ILO working paper as saying that anyone with paid employment for one hour a week, or those working without pay at a family business or farm, are deemed as being employed.

Wow that's impossible, whenever we or other manufacturers post a job vacancy bulletin we get hundreds of applicants a day.

It could be that all/most that apply are still studying at school or uni so not classed as unemployed. As a matter of interest,, how many are qualified for the jobs that you are referring to.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

certainly in their tiny minds they believe even glue huffing street urchin beggers have employment. I suspect the only way they can stay in "government" is to be delusional.
