Talents shortage inflates pay scale
A Phnom Penh Post report said that salaries in Cambodia are skyrocketing due to shortage of skilled labor force. Industries that face the shortage include Medicine (doctors, pharmacists, nurses), software engineering, project management, telecommunications engineering, finance... and according to D'Amico, human resource consultant of HR Inc., finding good management skills is the toughest one. A recent UNDP audit report of the ECCC found that monthly salaries of $2,300, $2,850, $3,520, $4,300, and $5,300, are being paid to Cambodians working at the tribunal. Even a translator with a part-time previous experience and is still studying is paid $3500 a month. $3500 a month? this is a dream for most Cambodian people. I think it's even higher than salaries of most NGO directors.
