ECONOMY: To put it frankly, Cambodia's economy is screwed up, largely in part because of the corrupt government and a lack of education. However, from 2004-2007, the economy grew about 10% per year driven largely by the garment sector.  Look at your Abercrombie tag lately?  That's right - it's made in Cambodia.  Hollister, GAP, Levis, etc are made in Cambodia as well.  Want some cheap clothes, come visit and we will take you to the market.

GDP: $27.94 billion (2008 est)

POPULATION BELOW POVERTY LINE: 35%

POPULATION MAKING LESS THAN US$1/DAY: 34%
