Charity Bread

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Poor people have no staples. In any case here in rural Cambodia it has replaced rice for curry.

Khmer get their carbs from rice not from wheat. Bread is a silly choice.

I would think it likely this is day old bread from one of the clients of the MFI.
Only the most mean spirited curs would criticise a freely given gift of food intended for the great numbers of needy people.

Bread has been eaten here since at least the French era. They sell it all over the place, guys on bikes with "Pang - Pang"playing on tannoys etc. I've heard the bread in places like Bayon is made with a mixture of wheat and rice flour.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

It certainly is any time a family member goes to town.
You will notice locals carrying rice bags full of baguettes home at every holiday.
The big bakeries all have branches on the outskirts of the city for the provincial trade.
Potatoes are also quite highly regarded by Khmer.
