Access to land is basis of survival so all land grabs are at least guarantee of permanent poverty if not the death knell for all those dispossessed. First world people may think they are protected from this kind of dispossession but foreign purchase of first world land will only increase. The only way to prevent this is to impose land values taxes on all land purchased so that no profit can be made from speculating with land. No one will be able to hold land out of production.

This is what America will be like if Obama gets power. A reporter said that Obamas plane stinks! McCains is kept nice and smells good. Tells you something about the candidates.

Cambodia used to be my favourite country to go to up to 6 years ago. now its just become another Burma, full of bitter people who lost touch with nature and taken over by their government and u.s dollar.

been back there 5 times since and will never go back again. what a sad loss for me and the Cambodian people. they used to be so happy and pure. i miss how it used to be.

Before or after the US bombed millions of them to death?, Cambodias problems go back generations.. this is nothing new, just the result of Cultural and Economic Imperialism.

Once the dirty deal the corporations and wealthy people are engaged in is over simple re-establish the Khmer Rouge and begin the 'terror' again. I do not see another way to beat corporation and other wealthy criminal. This way the government will pretend to give the land back to the rightful owner, take it from them and give it to the corporations anyway, thus alienating the rest of the country... Typical government planning?

Permaculture. The plot described is more than enough to support a family and produce a modest surplus.

Access to land is essential for survival but the amount needed to sustain us is much smaller than we think.
