Cambodia Gets Tough On Nation’s Rich Kid Problem

I saw this article in a Cambodian newspaper about the country’s growing rich kid problem. Apparently, these kids have a penchant for waving guns in front of karaoke bars, crashing their fancy SUVs into temples, beating up foreigners, and  seem to think they can get away with these sorts of horrible acts – wherever would they get this idea?

Is it me, or does it sound like the article is trying to cast a suspicious eye on wealth as a problem?

The quote in blue is from a survivor of the Khmer Rouge genocide. I’m not saying there’s any connection, but there might be something interesting in here about role models and accountability. Just a thought.
