Shirts cheaper than burgers. Bargain?

There are a lot of bargain sales around Phnom Penh lately.  There are hundreds of shops, if not more, selling clothes for men, women, and children all over Phnom Penh. Most are factory overruns and the rest come from Thailand, HK, and even China.

The above men’s shirts cost cost less than a fastfood budget meal. But out of these great number of shirts available, my main concern is not the price itself but getting the best quality out of these selections. If needs a good eye to spot the better ones and lots and lots of patience to go through the lot under the baking sun.

The newly renovated Psah Thmey in Phnom Penh. It's popularly known to most tourists as the Central Market.

Psah Thmey  was built in the French art deco-style in 1937 in the shape of a dome with four arms branching out into vast hallways with hundreds of stalls/shops. In 2009-2011, the government received funding from the French Development Agency for its renovation.

Psah Thmey is one of the liveliest and busiest shopping centre and the number one tourist spot in Phnom Penh.

APAD 286: Carabao energy drink

Energy drinks are commonly consumed in Cambodia. I know they’re marketed to men but they’re practically everywhere that you can see these kinds of products sold in school canteens or peddled by vendors outside the school. I was even shocked to see one kid drinking an energy drink (not this one).

I don't drink energy drinks. Do you?

Here, energy drinks have been here not long ago and people consume these drinks – man, woman, or child – like they’re regular fizzy drinks. They don’t realise that it could cause harm to their health, especially to children.
