The guarded and secret slaughterhouse for pigs is located in a residential neighbourhood on the outskirts of Phnom Penh. Because of the lack of modern equipment, the animals here are still traditionally killed in a gruesome manner, as are animals in most slaughterhouses in Cambodia. Though international organisations have repeatedly called for a reform of Cambodia’s virtually non-existent animal welfare laws, slaughtering conditions have remained unchanged. Livestock production is being driven by a rapidly increasing demand for meat in Cambodia and attractive prospects of profit for employers.
