Already the mother of a four-year-old boy,
she is due to give birth to a girl within two
weeks, but maintains a punishing schedule
in a shoe factory, working 10 hours a day,
six days a week.
"I am the main breadwinner of the house,"
Khen Srey Touch told a Reuters
photographer who spent a few days with
her family in their village southwest of the
capital Phnom Penh.

But it is dark when she returns
home to cook the evening meal
and wait for her husband, a
temporary construction worker.
Khen Srey Touch is among
thousands of workers in the
garment industry who are being
courted by Prime Minister Hun
Sen ahead of the July 29 election.

Complete Honour Footwear Industrial.

Like many Cambodians, she has
known no other leader but Hun Sen.
"He is the only person who has ruled
the country and I don't know why,"
she added.
Hun Sen, who has ruled Cambodia for
more than 30 years, is trying to
ensure victory after two close
elections in 2013 and 2017, by
handing out cash inducements and a
series of punishing measures against
the opposition.

outside Complete Honour Footwear
Industrial where she works.

His government has targeted
opposition politicians, civil society
groups and independent media
ahead of the poll, which he appears
set to win easily.
Hun Sen has also been a fixture at
campaign rallies with garment
workers - promising them more
benefits and handing cash envelopes
to pregnant employees.

political parties.
And whatever the election
outcome, she was determined her
children will have a better life.

Peru’s shoestring circuses struggle to survive
July 8, 2018
GALLLERY PHOTOS

Inside a yellow and blue tent
overlooking the desert hills of Peru’s
capital city, the Tony Perejil circus
comes to life.
A set of brown goats hobble up a
narrow plank. A woman balances a
newspaper rolled into an inverted cone
on her nose. Another performer does
acrobatics on horseback before half-
empty rows of spectators.
The mom-and-pop style spectacle is one
of about a hundred remaining circuses
in Peru that manage to eke out a living
despite waning public enthusiasm for
clown and animal acts in an age of viral
internet videos and cellphones.

On a recent night, Jose Alvarez tallied the ticket sales for the circus named after his father and
sighed when he realized they’d earned less than $40.
“Lima is lousy,” the 52-year-old businessman said, adding he’d move his circus north toward Peru’s border
with Ecuador in search of a brighter future.
These days, Lima’s circus acts find themselves increasingly pinched for space and money.
Urban expansion in the city of 10 million inhabitants has made it tough to find enough space to set up a tent
in a centrally located neighborhood. Gangs of delinquents charge up to $10 a day for circuses to set up shop
in depressed barrios. And a 2011 law prohibits them from using wild animals in their shows.
“Any available space is sold to malls,” lamented Alvarez, who also performs as a clown. “No one thinks about
the circus.”
Alvarez remembers happier times in the 1980s, when his father filled their circus tent with people even
though Peru was in the midst of an economic crisis and a war raged between the state and Sendero Luminoso
guerrillas.
“The circuses were never affected,” he said.
His family’s circus today still maintains much of the old-time traditions of the past: Clowns use makeup to
inflate the appearance of their lips, make jokes and don goofy, oversized overalls. A woman in a pink leotard
sways from a cord dangling from the ceiling as children watch, mouths agape. The tent has a traditional cone-
shaped roof and a simple dirt stage.
Even the profession of clowning has hit hard times, Alvarez said, adding that while some 500 clowns across
the country have their own labor association, they have been unable to improve meager wages and living
conditions.
“The word ‘clown’ is used incorrectly in Peru,” he said. “It’s understood as a pejorative.”August 11, 2018

Ethiopian migrant brings Italian hills alive

Ethiopia in 2010 over a land dispute.

Ironically, in Italy she was able to use common
land in the northern mountains to build her new
enterprise, taking advantage of permits that give
farmers access to public land to prevent local
territory from being reclaimed by wild nature.
"While I was holding down another job, I started
to recover the land and animals, starting off with
15 goats. Today I have 180 goats," she said.

A Mochena goat eats from a tree. The secret
was to try to draw the best out of everyone.
"Once (migrants) are on our territory, we
should not constantly look to marginalize
them. This is negative and
counterproductive," she said.

Mochena goats nuzzles up to Gudeta at her stable. Her
experience is a shining example of what migrants can
achieve, given half a chance, though Gudeta fears
growing hostility to newcomers in Italy will make it
harder for outsiders to contribute in the future.
July 20 , 2018

Goats eat at Gudeta's stable. "I created my
space and made myself known, there was no
resistance to me," she told Reuters. "But (the
experience) of those who are coming now ... is
obviously being conditioned by ideologies
based on lies that can create fear and
resistance." REUTERS/Alessandro Bianchi

right League party, which is led by Matteo
Salvini, Italy's new hardline interior minister.
Some opinion polls say the League is now

years. REUTERS/Alessandro Bianchi

Egyptian women challenge social norms with Parkour
Mariam Emad from Parkour Egypt "PKE" practices her parkour skills
around buildings on the outskirts of Cairo. A group of Egyptian
women gather at an abandoned park in a Cairo suburb once a
week, climbing walls and jumping around in the strenuous physical
discipline known as Parkour, while also challenging the country's
conservative social norms. REUTERS/Amr Abdallah Dalsh

Mohamed Omran, PKE coach, watches his students. Founded in
France in the 1980s as the Art du Deplacement and later taking its
name from the French word 'parcours' (course or route), Parkour
involves running, climbing and jumping acrobatically around
buildings and over terrain. REUTERS/Amr Abdallah Dalsh
July 22, 2018

The women have trained every week for the past
six months with the eventual aim of forming the
first professional Parkour team in Egypt.

Curious crowds, accustomed to women taking a

filming. But the women keep up the training
unhindered, insisting that no sport is exclusive for
men. REUTERS/Amr Abdallah Dalsh

It is uncommon for women to play such sports

Superhero costumes, bunny outfits, shirtless.
Tour de France spectators come in every color.
Few major sports events allow fans to get as close to athletes as the Tour does and many spectators
use the opportunity to make a road-side statement. Others calmly look on while enjoying a picnic or
some local wine and cheese.
Tour organizers estimate that 10 to 12 million spectators line the route each year.
The Tour doesn’t charge any admission fees or require spectators to purchase tickets. Followers can
simply show up anywhere they like along the route.
This year’s race — the 105th edition of the Tour — began in the Vendee region along the Atlantic
coast on July 7 and will conclude in Paris next Sunday.
Here’s a gallery of Associated Press photos focusing on the fans.

Tour de France interrupted by farmers' protest
A police officer pepper sprays a protester as another
protester stands in front of the race director's car, July 24,
2018. A protest by local farmers brought stage 16 of the
Tour de France to a halt on Tuesday as bales of hay were
thrown on to the road on the route from Carcassonne to
Bagneres-de-Luchon and police tear gas blew into the
faces of some of the riders. REUTERS/Stephane Mahe

was used to disperse the protesters but it ended up
blowing in the direction of the peloton, which led to
the race being stopped at the 187 km-to-go point.
