Sunset circus

Hundreds of tourists come to watch the sunset on Angkor each day, and ruin the temples in the process. Graffiti, garbage and general wear and tear are making Phnom Bakheng slowly disintigrate. Only a small percentage of the admission price goes to concerving the temples, if that! The rest goes into the pockets of the owners of a petrolium Company and the ministry of finance (aka: the black hole)
