DINERS GO TO THE DOGS
Cambodians are being urged to eat more dogs as part of a crackdown on strays.
Dogs, along with spiders, beetles and crickets, are regularly found on menus in deeply impoverished rural areas of the country.
But eating them is frowned upon in the relative sophistication of the capital, Phnom Penh.
City governor Kep Chuktema is drawing up a policy to control the growing problem of pavement-fouling strays.
Mr Kep said city-dwellers should throw off their traditional snootiness towards dining on man's best friend.
"Come on, dog meat is so delicious. The Vietnamese and Koreans love to eat dog meat," he said.
"Cambodians don't have wine, but poor people can enjoy their dog meat with palm juice."
Until now, Phnom Penh dog lovers have had to keep their tastes under wraps.
They have had to ask for the "special" or "jogging cow meat" when ordering in restaurants.
