The other half has just returned from the market- shopping for Ban Lai, vegetables at Psar Kandal. Normal price that she’d be paying is around $1 per Kilo, today over $3, and with choice and quality well down. Not totally unexpected, and for us (the family at least, as I’m not there) it’s not an insurmountable problem. For locals, without our means, I wonder what thoughts are going through their minds?

Cops caned the veg sellers off the periphery of PC market this morning.
Supermarkets mostly out of fruit and veg.

The ministry maintained there is no shortage of local vegetables but it has been difficult to transport them to and in Phnom Penh because of lockdown measures.

Lim Porty, the marketing manager for Phnom Penh-based Natural Agricultural Village told Khmer Times that while lockdown is ongoing, vegetables from 20 provinces, mostly from Kandal and Mondulkiri provinces, are being transported by taxi, while vegetables from neighbouring provinces such as Kandal province are being delivered by tuktuks.

She added that during lockdown, however, it has been difficult to transport the vegetables to their final destination. Authorities have not allowed some shipments to enter the city, she said, despite drivers having proper identification. Lim said this has hurt the vegetable supply in the city.

Supermarkets are having problems because of staff living in red zones and also not being able to get through barriers. My local street market was normal enough on Monday, now it's mostly closed and there are just eggs and noodles and stuff on sale. I might attempt to leave my area to pick up groceries and pizza supplies tomorrow.

Mrs Cargo had mixed luck with ordering food online from FB sellers. She originally rang a veggie supply place and the line never answered..so she left a message with her ph number on messenger to call her back. 2 days later they called and when she asked for her particular order..sorry, we have no stock of those veggies.

Next one. Beef seller (supposedly Aussie beef) phone line always busy. Left message again. Rang back next day so she put in an order for delivery the next day. Next day no delivery however they call to say sorry, delivery driver couldn't get through. Today, we got delivery approx $15 for 2kgs beef.
$2.50 for driver delivery.
