Cambodia's Forgotten Children Part 1of 3

Between 1975 and 1979 the Khmer Rouge devastated Cambodia in what is now considered to have been one of the worst humanitarian disasters of the 20th century. More than 30 years later, Pol Pot's legacy lives on.

Cambodia's Forgotten Children is a unique insight into the problems facing young people in Cambodia's capital today. The film will take you to Phnom Penh's poorest areas, explain why so many children are at risk from exploitation and introduce you to the Non Government Organisations (NGO's) trying to help.

Touching interviews and hard-hitting footage will introduce you to an underprivileged and vulnerable youth, whose spirit and resilience shine through against all odds.

We should captured Pol Pot and brought him into this place and let him see. PP destroyed every things and everyone.

It's pretty obvious to me, we need to firstly stop world over population. Then reduce our present numbers because even now we are destroying our planet's enviroment, resources and species. Then we need a world government that evenly alocates the manufacturing, ect.. and provies basic health care and food for everyone. Lets face it, corporate capitalism has failed.

Lets provide all the necessities of living to all the worlds people. We have the resources.
