Andong is a community near Phnom Penh with a population of around 6,000 people. The neighborhood emerged in 2006 after the forced relocation of approximately 1,000 families. Many residents struggled with unemployment, poor housing and limited access to clean water, food and health care. Floods, pollution and lack of sanitation made daily life difficult. Despite improvements, long-term support remains essential to help break the cycle of poverty. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
