During this Covid-19 time, everything increase price and his business can’t run well seems no people to buy. After Khmer New Year in mid of April the company has no job to do. He so worried, he think if this Covid-19 still going on like this he doesn’t know how it will be and if his family get ill that will be more serious as now no proper hospital while no income and the safety of his family. Cambodia government has no strategic to survive such poor at remote people. He suggested how he and family able to have income, he and family so stressful and feel not calm due to such concern for family no proper food to eat, sole few value stuff he has few no one buy it. At this moment he don’t know what to do looking for job to do but not possible at this moment, looking for support but seem don’t know who will support his family as turn to other neighbor of him, there were many family facing the same problem as him. Seem no one help each other at this moment.

Married with a lady having 2 children live in cottage 4m x 6m. He is farmer, raise poultry, and collective shell from Mekong river for selling to feed his family. He makes income 2USD per day.

He lent money from Micro-Finance 300USD since April 2019 for his two sons cure as they got sick of dengue and he able only pay for the interest 3%, for the whole lent he still not able to pay back to Micro-Finance 300USD, if the Micro-Finance insists for pay back all he has to sell his cattle, if so he can’t have cattle to make the rice field to feed the family. He and family willing to work as construction the road or work nearby home town but seem no job to do. He plan to work in Thailand but the local government not allow going and all border are close due to Covid-19. Now he has no hope, no future to think of how to do as no way at all.             

CASE #3: Ms. Sou Chai Ya, 23 years old, lives at Damrei village, Beoun Char commune, Sambo district, Kratie province, Cambodia. She studied only grade 9 due family require her to work support her family as her father got sick sleep only on bed.

As four year ago before her father got sick, was lent Micro-Finance 3,000USD for build house and till now not able to pay back. Recently Royal Government of Cambodia announce to Micro finance not to take interest but in the reality, Micro-Finance still go and ask for pay back the interest and the lent money on time without exception.  With Covid-19 crisis she can’t make profit as people don’t spend money easily at this time, if the situation still likes this, she doesn’t know how to do as she has to pay for medicine for her father, food for family and pay back the Micro-Finance. At this moment no job, no business, no income, she don’t know what to do, so worry! She wishes if there is job that make more money to pay the Micro and feed the family to survive that would be relief. Who can help in such situation? How to do?

In general situation, in February during the Do No Harm Training in early of February ACT staff had instructed on how to avoid and protect from Covid-19 effect. Later on in end of March 2020, RGC ban not to gather people at communities so ACT had been doing online and phone call for communities conduct their own activities and support them respond to Covide-19 education. Later on we had conduct survey collective idea of the target network concern during Covid-19 below is their concern and suggestion:

  • No money to pay back to Micro-Finance
  • Lost job, No work to do

  • Close all boarder, food increase price
  • Loss income, loss work
