La construction au Cambodge : euh... sécurité?... || Cambodian construction and... security?...

Jusqu'à présent, je considère le Cambodge comme une Inde mais en beaucoup mieux : meilleur système d'eau et d'électricité (avec moins de coupures), meilleure hygiène et accès à l'hygiène, nourriture et eau plus salubres, rues plus propres, trafic moins chaotique, etc. Mais quand ça vient à la construction, là, les deux pays sont semblables -- du moins en termes de sécurité au travail. Voici une photo que j'ai prise de notre voisin qui faisait des rénovations à cet appartement :

Déjà, l’échafaud n'en est pas vraiment un. Ce ne sont que des bouts de bois qui tiennent plus ou moins ensemble. Et pas besoin de vous dire que le mec n'était pas attaché!

Quelques jours plus tard, j'aperçois notre courageux petit castor sur le toit de la maison, à faire des réparations. Assez incroyable!! Je ne crois pas que j'aurais le courage de faire ça. On n'est qu'au deuxième étage, mais quand même...!

Mais quand ça vient à la construction par contre, je crois que c'est l'un des rares domaines où les Cambodgiens sont super efficaces et super rapides. Ils te construisent des trucs à une vitesse folle! Par exemple, en un mois, ils auront érigé un monument entouré de murs, tenus par des armatures de métal, pour la crémation du roi-père Norodom Sihanouk. À chaque fois qu'on passe à côté du terrain, c'est incroyable à quel point ça a changé! Alors pour ça, chapeau les Cambodgiens! Nous en Europe et au Canada, c'est la loi du petit gars qui travaille et des quatre autres qui le regardent faire, et des contrats qui ne sont jamais respectés dans les temps! haha!

-------------------------------

Up until now, I've seen Cambodia as a "better India": better water and electricity systems, better hygiene and access to hygiene, cleaner streets, less chaotic traffic, etc. But when it comes to construction, both countries are quite similar -- at least regarding security.

A few weeks ago before going to work, I took a peek at my window and saw this man (from the first picture above) doing some renovations at our neighbour building. It's quite impressive how much his security is a stake here!! His scaffolding is barely made out of a few pieces of wood that are kinda holding on. And no need to tell you that he is not attached to anything.

A few days later, I saw him perched on the roof (just the second floor, but still!), not yet attached! It's quite impressive -- I would never do that!! 

I have to say though that construction is probably one of the only fields where Cambodians are both efficient and fast! They can build you a relatively good quality construction in such a little time! For instance, they started building a commemorative building for King-Father Norodom Sihanouk's cremation, which will happen in a few days. In a month, they are able to construct everything, with metal-beam structures, on a quite large piece of land!! Quite impressive. I have to say that I admire them for that! In Canada and Europe, it's usually the rule of the man that works, and the four other guys that watch him, and contracts that are never done in time! haha!
