Social class in Cambodia means that people are grouped based on their income, education, occupation, wealth and their lifestyle.
Think of social class as the different groups that people belong to based on how much money they have and what they do for a living. Just like how you have different types of toys, there are different types of people.
In Cambodia, there are four social classes: the wealthy, the middle class, the working class, and the poor.
The wealthy class is made up of people who have a lot of money, who live in big houses, have fancy cars and go to expensive schools. They have access to the best healthcare, food and entertainment.
The middle class is made up of people who have some money, but not as much as the wealthy. They have jobs that pay well, own a nice house, drive a car and have access to good education.
The working class is made up of people who work hard, but don't make a lot of money. They might have jobs such as farmers, factory workers, or street vendors. They don't have a lot of extra money and may struggle to make ends meet.
Finally, the poor class is made up of people who don't have much money at all. They often live in poverty and have very limited access to education, healthcare and healthy food. They may live in crowded housing, and may struggle to access clean water and sanitation.
In Cambodia, people are often defined by their social class and this can impact their opportunities and access to resources. It is important to remember that everyone deserves to be treated with respect, regardless of their social class.
