Has Jeremy Sumpter Broken A Bone?

legs give way because of the thoughts

But resist and do not give up ... Never ...

twenty-two hours of zerootto twenty-nine January duemilaundici

Today was a day that has passed away this afternoon in a little of unhappiness, in the heart and soul, beginning with a reply back that I gave up facebook for those who took care of my mood.

puntanti Traveling with eyes down, but not to the asphalt at the bottom of society is not always easy, the stories are true, difficult, curiosity will not let me even a corner unexplored, where my legs can take to get my eyes and my ears ... especially for a kucciolo raised in the West is hard to see them all the misfortunes of those who I consider brothers away. Nothing serious at night take me back with a fabulous dream all forze.k

Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia is a tourist destination, yet very poor, this makes impressive steps in that city, there are many beggars and slums are seen near the buildings where it is also difficult to imagine the living conditions of the population they compressed certainly do better in rural villages where even if you do not have the facilities can enjoy unspoiled nature around them.

Here is the smog and chaos all around.

last night with a guy who drives a Cambodian Tuk Tuk we talked a little bit of problems in the country by drinking a beer at Pudda Race, we asked to visit a variety of situations to unearth pictures of the city difficult, but some of our choices were rejected by the danger of "mission", I believe that to meet some issues such as pedophilia and the abuse of women in the suburbs adjacent to the city takes time and planning.

We decide to take, "Richard" as our guide and this morning we came to take a first step in a hospital which also deals with prostheses for landmine victims, in the center and do not feel to take photographs, but we still want to speak with a manager and accompany us in one room, perhaps one of the spokes, it's all very dirty and messed up in the courtyard is full of people who need support with different problems, the waiting room that is under an arcade seems another gateway to hell, but people here seem to wait patiently for the help from someone.

We enter the facility and talk with a doctor who tells us that because Saturday is the administration that no one can explain what happens, say goodbye and take a tour of autonomy within 'hospital, going to a comrade, I understand as unnecessary and superfluous are the complaints of all the people I know, probably my own, "as you eat well in hospital" ...

This is all very precarious, there is only a nurse and no doctor, the patients' rooms are dirty and dilapidated, the beds of wooden planks and anything decorated the place, we get over the dormitories and look for someone who speaks English, no one answered, the problems are varied and remain here without a description, just a comment, difficult is life for those who pass through these places .






Healthy respect and say goodbye.

ask to see a mosque, trying to see who is worse, I'm curious about how Islam is dealt 5percento that is embraced by the people of Cambodia, our guide is not very prepared, however, leads us to a mosque, but maybe it is abandoned, the visit and take some pictures, I find the back of a wooden crate with the sheep inside, someone goes from here ..

Then we go out there and sneak in a way that brings in the slums, we will proceed with caution, the guide says that the day is not dangerous, but be careful of the cameras, then is dangerous, no place for tourists, we all look at with suspicion but do not intimidate us and we continue with smiles and bows with folded hands as required by local custom.

Proceeding I run into a small medical clinic and ask the operator how difficult it is and he asks me my roots, then tells me he knows of many Italians who studied in France and the French are better , I do not know its source and look forward to the answer to my question, nods, is not easy as I imagined, but his face is peaceful, healthy and go on.

advance to a crossover, but perhaps there is no need to go without anyone who can translate our intentions and we therefore reverse until our tuktuk, to move into a factory that produces shoes, I had seen the bus coming with the release of employees from a factory that is on the road at the entrance of the capital, an impressive sight, thousands of women running off the huge company.

Here, as in other countries such as India, Thailand, Laos and China, women are called to work for companies that produce the largest contract manufacturers of clothing arriving in Europe and America, women are attracted to cities with the promise of a job and are hired with a salary ranging from fifty to seventy dollars per month, the problem is that those with money can barely live in the city, then they are then forced to seek a second job and degradation offers them seats in brothels around the city.

arrive before the company first, and already knowing the answer, we try to ask if we do enter, our guide explains that we are only tourists and curious why we would like to see the production, they close the gates and there away in the second call with the radio, even a guard the first, then decide to wait for the release of the girls and drink a drink in a bar in front.

When there is little we prepare for the exit with three cameras to film the event, the guards noticed us and we warned off, but we resist , we are far apart and we prepare our tuktuk to escape from them recently started to approach many food vendors at the exit of the company, our guide tells us it's not a big factory and not all girls will stop work for lunch, we will not move from our positions, organized, I video, large images up close and lorenzo. Begin to out in dribs and drabs of the first girls are searched individually exit and create a growing stream of girls that lasts about six minutes, we see some figures moving around us, we decide it's time to go, we go on our transportation intersection and two girls, I ask them their age, they look around and say eighteen, I'm not sure that all are of age, healthy and away we go ...



return to the hotel I go to eat at Indian restaurant, then do a lap with Lorenzo on markets, much more narrow and specific as those in Vietnam, putrfazione usual meat and strong odors that do not let you forget how these places.

return to the hotel, I think about everything I've seen ... I'm a ticket to Bangkok, two days walk away, what I saw was enough for me although I hope to come back to every place.

I just have to finish the job with antonio to pass him the photos and visit the project's HipHop dance school, then traveling to Chiang Mai to reach the children who start tonight and celebrate the Tet (Chinese New Year ).
