It was a very fast trip, one day Saigon 3 days cambodia , ond day Saigon. Hard to catch your breath. Cambodia was everythihg expected and more. The ancient relic of Anchor Wat permeates the culture. Everyone comes to Siem Reap (city) to pay their rerspects. one Hundred hotels have been built in the last 2 years. There are over adoxen major sights nearby, we touvhed on 5 but passed many more. This is all overlaid by tourism. There are many other sights in Cambodia and perhaps it is better to seek out others. Cambodias Hope is an orphanage ouside Phenom Phen supprort ed by former SAS students. Worth a visit a base to contribute some medical know-how and find less exposed sights. They also have a base at the beach 80 miles away. The folklore dance group rivals the one we saw at the dinner presentation. Must come back.
Cambodia is behind Vietnam in industrial ddevelopment but moving fast. Saigon may be moving too fast. The industry outside the city requires massive nunbers and they are all excited by Intel building a huge investment. They will carry alot of investment along with them. But the many dressemakesrs still produce beautiful clothes to exact measure in three hours. The mens suits are outstanding of fine wools with silk linings. There is so much competition it is hard to choose.
