The Russian Market Dumpster

The Russian Market Dumpster

By midday, one can generally find spoiled food being thrown into the trash behind the Russian Market on the south side of Phnom Penh. As I was coming out of the market mid afternoon, having shot photos of the market people, I chanced upon a pair sharing some berries that had been discarded. The older one was big enough to climb up and into the dumpster to help feed her little brother. So rare…children sharing…and in desperation, children raising children.
