説明

In a complement to Samreth (2016), this report summarizes and discusses the results from a field interview of 120 randomly selected poor households. The interview was conducted in 2016 at Angkor Sar commune of Mesang district in Prey Veng province, Cambodia. From the interview, we find that although most households have proper access to water sources, more than half of them do not have toilets in their housing compound. A significant share of households does not own agricultural land, and for those who do, the average size is small. The results also indicate the important role of remittances as a source of household income. For expenditure patterns, we find high household expenditures on festivals, funerals and other ceremonies. Regarding households’ access to credit, the interview results point out that nearly half of participants borrow money with very high interest rates. The interest rates of borrowing from informal sources are even as high as 10% per month. Furthermore, the interview indicates that a high share of households borrow money from informal sources for using in food consumption. Based on a simple correlation coefficient, we observe that agricultural land holding may help households access a better quality of credit.
