These are Vietnamese children.
For 80% of them, an older sibling has been sold.
Because they are not Khmer they are in the most at-risk community in Phnom Penh.
I got to hang out and play with them all afternoon.

Vietnamese children in Cambodia.
If ever I wondered why I am here and why I am doing this...today gave me the answer.
These are Vietnamese children.
For 80% of them, an older sibling has been sold.
Because they are not Khmer they are in the most at-risk community in Phnom Penh.
I got to hang out and play with them all afternoon.

I have traveled to Cambodia and Vietnam. The children are beautiful in both countries, and due to the variety of ethnicities, I find it difficult to know which are VN children and which are Cambodian children. How do the people know? Is there a distinct or subtle difference that I am missing? They are all beautiful.
