The numbers of motorcycle in Phnom Penh alone is pegged at about half a million {source: me, bwahahhaha}. Can you imagine the scene during the rush hour?

And with such number, the demand for moto wash is huge therefore a lot of locals are cashing in on the demand. You can see signs like this – some hand-painted like you see in the pic, and others, digitally-printed – everywhere. A car wash business is a very simple and easy business that can be set up at home with very little effort and with equipment as basic as high-pressure water hose, soap, and plenty of rags/cloths.
