Opening Remarks by Pauline Tamesis, the UN Resident Coordinator in Cambodia
The pandemic is laying bare inequalities in Cambodia - inequalities in income, health and education. Many low-income households are going into debt. Preliminary findings based on the United Nations internal study suggest that debt has been used to cope with their daily economic, health and livelihood needs. Vulnerability and income inequality in Cambodia have been exacerbated by COVID-19, further highlighting the limits of looking at the growth of the Gross Domestic Product as a sign of overall prosperity and people’s well-being.
