Sugar, Salt, Fat, Oh and Super seasoning!

I have heard that a combination of sugar, salt, and fat is perfect ingredient for many dishes. It is true and it makes most food companies become giants.

However, excessive consumption of the bunch leads to health concerns. Actions and researches especially in the West have focused on solutions to the problem.

In Cambodia, I would add another member to the group, super seasoning. It is simply a chemical substance that could fool our tongues and brains to accept more food than our bodies need.

It is popular here and it is widely used at homes and restaurants. Unfortunately, I do not like it and I suspect it might harm my health.

Any studies on that?

It is an effort to rescue land for farmers. Enjoy it and I am waiting for your comments.

Closing Cambo Six is a safe bet for securing government's social goals

The Phnom Penh Post's article "Game over for Cambo Six", published on February 26 about the government's closure of Cambodia's legal betting company Cambo Six revealed another major development of the Kingdom's policies towards gambling. It is more focused on long-term results of social improvement by eliminating contradictory forces such as gambling. The new policy will save a great deal for the government's poverty reduction plan, for public spending and for improvements in education. Firstly, the closure will remove the forces that contradict poverty-reduction efforts. This means at the same time the government and civil society are running programs to make people richer, gambling makes them poorer. Secondly, the government's order saves the country's public spending. The government, of course, loses tax income from gambling. But they do not need to increase the budget to cope with social problems resulting from gambling. Domestic violence, ro...
