Australia's richest woman Gina Rinehart receives inspiring honour in Cambodia for recognition of 'distinguished services'
Gina Rinehart has been celebrated in Cambodia, receiving the country’s highest honour for non-citizens, for years of inspiring charity work to allow girls in poverty to attend university.


On her company Hancock Prospecting’s website, Ms Rinehart’s philanthropic endeavours focus on health, education and sport, with her Cambodia initiative objective striving to “break cycles of poverty and abuse” to create a positive change in the country.

“Through intervention and education for the youth, Hancock Prospecting is proud to support the Cambodian Children’s Fund (CCF),” the statement read.

“Hancock Prospecting has been involved with the CCF for a number of years by way of establishing and ongoing funding of the Hope Scholarship program with the objective of providing opportunity for young Cambodian women from poor backgrounds to obtain a university education.”

“Last week she was advocating for a cut in the $85 a day rate of the national minimum wage and
today she appears to be saying that cut should go down to $2 a day, or Australia won’t be able to
compete with the likes of Africa.



and just plain wrong
Gina Rinehart is not only Australia’s richest person, she is also clearly the most out of touch and
cold-hearted Australian, based on her latest attack on workers and their rights, say unions.
ACTU President Ged Kearney said it was almost inconceivable that anyone would consider paying
workers $2 a day a fair concept, let alone the richest person in the country advocating for it.
“If Gina Rinehart seriously thinks Australians should be competing with African workers who are
paid $2 day, then she has no idea about fairness or equality – the values on which Australia was
built,” Ms Kearney said.
“It’s time we stopped listening to people like Ms Rinehart, who continually shows she has no
interest in using her wealth to grow Australian jobs or support the local economy and now she
appears to be suggesting we should look to Africa for our future.

Yes, many wealthy people are philanthropists.
It is a pity the media does not focus on good news.
