'July 2006. In a poor area of Phnom Penh families are illegally evicted from their homes which are being destroyed without warning. The Government aims to clear this area of the city for development and has started to cover the district with razor wire to stop the residents from rebuilding. These children play in what was once their home, as their parents negotiate with Government officials.'
