The large open wet and dry markets that the Cambodian people frequent have mostly been shut down because of the large numbers of Covid-19 infections found in the markets. Most Cambodians go to the market every day to buy fresh meat and fish, fruit and vegetables, so the closure presented a real problem of food supply. Enterprising people, anxious to earn a few dollars, opened up vegetable stalls in the entrances of their homes.
Others, not having a house or shop open to the street, just appropriated the side of the road, selling from wherever there was traffic and they could find a space.
