Kampot pepper is very expensive. Some restaurants in France don’t use any pepper other than kampot pepper. Kampot pepper has 3 kinds (black, white and red). Red is the most expensive of the three. Kampot pepper farmers are not allow to use chemical fertilizer. In Vietnam, they concentrate on quantity, on the other hand kampot farmers concentrate on quality.
Yes kampot pepper is famous worldwide
Kampot Pepper isn’t very expensive. Even, Cambodian also can buy and use it for their cooking including me.
@@sunlyheang4337 I was there at the place call "la plantation", this place is a lot bigger. ua-cam.com/video/rK4mKCtGZ5k/v-deo.html . Of course everyone can afford it. What I meant is that it's more expensive than a regular pepper. Let say it costs $10 for a small pack compare to $2 for other pepper. You have to be careful when you buy the real Kampot pepper. Sometime they label Kampot pepper, but it’s not organic. I was there in Cambodia and I saw cheap Kampot pepper.
@@sunlyheang4337 I think he means expensive outside of Cambodia. Khmer farmers sells it for very cheap, but foreign companies then packages and resells it at an inflated price. I looked up Kampot pepper on a French website and 250 gram of black peppercorn is 19 euros which is approximately $20 USD. Another French website sells 50 gram for 7.50 euros. While it's one of the most, if not the most expensive peppercorn in the world, Khmers aren't the ones getting rich from it. Something to think about and nothing for Khmer to rejoice in.
@@d.c.3534 I agree with you
Not gonna lie but I really impressed by the farm owner’s commitment and resilience even through the tough time. 70% loss of outputs and profits, he’s still managed to survive and fighting in a foreign country where it’s really hard to communicate and adapt yourself into. Wishing you all the best and hopefully you will be the largest pepper supplier in Cambodia. 🇰🇭🤝🇸🇬
Thanks CNA for making this documentary. 🇰🇭 ❤ 🇸🇬!
As a Cambodian i am really feel sorry for a fraud that made him lost a lot of money but i also happy that he met new friend and bought a nice land for him to grow Kampot Pepper. Wish him all the best for his hard work.
It's very inspiring to see a Singaporean farming in the Kingdom of Cambodia. Greetings from a genocide survivor under dictator Pol Pot. Cambodia has been going through development and hopefully to a brighter future. Sharing is Caring 🎄
Singaporean retiree should consider move to Cambodia to do farming then sell it back to Singapore. You have money, market network, fast learning, searching skills and even techniqe support from researcher, lab in Singapore. The only thing you dont have in Singapore is land. Many Japanese arrived in central highland Vietnam to do farming as well. This documentary surely inspiring other Singaporean.
Cant agree with u more
Thanks CNA for help showing about kampot peper to the world🇸🇬🤝🇰🇭
Kampot, here I come!
Kampot Pepper is 100% the best in the world !!
More Rozz please, she’s one of a kind.
Thank you CNA Insider!
I've been to Kampot some years ago. It really is a lovely little place. The peppers grown there are the best I ever tasted!
Thank you for beautiful documentary video, hope you enjoy kompot.
I am grateful to learn more about Cambodia 🇰🇭 😊
Thank you CNA for giving exposure to our pepper to international audience.
Mr. Lai Poon Piau is wonderful. ❤
Love to see Rozz doing travel documentaries, think she’s got a knack in it. Started watching since her Transiberian travel series few years ago.
Excellent travel program, very insightful. I am a big fan of Kampot pepper. Following this documentary, I placed an order of several pepper varieties from Hong Spices. Again, great work!!
Well…he is a real inspiration. I usually go to Kampot. Hopefully I will meet him one day😊😊😊
Sorry to hear what he’ve been through. A really valuable lesson to learn from.
I never knew that, i even google it and it says Kampot pepper is the finest and best in the world lol. Thank you for putting Cambodia out there Miss Rozz! That Singaporean farmer is a very nice guy. I am very mad at the person that scammed him out of $100,000 USD. I'm really sorry to hear that happen to him, but i am also glad that Cambodian man stepped up and helped him out. I wish the best for everyone and their farm! Love from Cambodia
🇰🇭
Thank you for this documentary video. Apart from Pepper, Kampot also has durian with great taste.
It's so inspiring. I'm rooting for him.
❤really ur show about our kompot province.keep good job
Quite inspirational. Thanks
Such an inspiring story! Never know there's a Singaporean who does pepper farming here in Cambodia. Would love to visit his farm one day!
i really love fried mud crab with green kampot pepper. the best
Wow I respect him for not giving up after he got scam and he doesn’t give up his dream of producing the best pepper in the world :) i will learn from his experience.
I LOVE ROZZZZZZZ
Amazing Cambodia products ❤️🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭
Welcome to Cambodia
Make Steak au poivre with the fresh green peppercorns. It is fabulous!
Yes the pepper is very fragrance!
Good job
Quality over quantity ❤
Watch you from Cambodia southeast Asia 🇰🇭 Kampong Speu province
When u spell Kampot it so beautiful voice .
Great sharing, I am new friend
The singapourian is definiteynit the first one nor the only one to grow kampot pepper, far from that. It was the khmer people and then french people who started the plantation. Khmer people consmme kampot freen pepper for hundreds of years !
Does he sell Pepper from his farm? I love Kampot Pepper and will be there for the next 3 weeks.
Firstly I think he is local Khmer Chinese who lives in Kampot :”)
His face is very similar to my relative lol 😆
Cambodia is a small country. It's because a big part of the land was stolen by Thailand.
This video highlights the true spirit of Chinese entrepreneurialism - amazing!
Try it with fried squid… soooo good
Hmmm, sounds good.
It is so maddening to hear how the workers neglected the farm and yet still remain employed. He's better off seeking Khmer workers in other provinces. There are Khmer going overseas to other countries in Asia for farm work and finding that they don't have much money left to send home after paying for their cost of living. If there's a way to assist with housing in the area, I think he may have better luck in finding dedicated workers outside of Kampot.
How can I contact him?
❤
Thanks for coming here to my poor a little country girl and I love Kampot pepper though. 😊😊😊😊
I thought White Peppers were fermented, like how they produce them in Sarawak.
What is the name of the pepper
Kompot pepper
And are they pepper corn
How can I make money off of cambodia to sell to singapore main point
help advertising rice for cambodia please.rice for cambodia is best of world beacuse of rice romdul khmer get victory number 1🙏🙏🙏
Dear Lady, please don’t bargain $1 price difference on the crabs or other seafood in Keb or anywhere else in Cambodia. $1 is nothing to you and me, but it goes a long way to help these sellers provide for their families.
So it's not spicy?
Wow the farm is already running for 5 yrs and producing tons of pepper a year before pandemic the plants should be well established and no care needed but occasional removing grasa and tieing up loose and grown vine, for this vine to die means it was destroyed by people. Since the owner is not there i assume they loot the farm, i cant call it harvest because its not their crops and they maintain like tieing the vine. Letting the vine loose and crawling in soil it will rot during wet season. It has to climb to avoid rotting. The care taker likely the suspect
Almost for all Cambodians never have taste of this pepper because it's too much expensive and it's only available on sale for western countries.
I dunno where you get this information but this is wrong and misleading.
@@bobabobibae7161
It's real... I'm a Cambodian. I meant th best ones go abroad and mid ones on sale for the local.
@@champaputih4568 you can easily find it in supermarket. Just make sure they have the Kampot Pepper mark. Surely it’s more expensive than the other pepper but won’t be much different.
@@boromeysreang8903
thank you
stay away from this singaporean woman, she brings stress coz she cant relax...
Dont be a hater
Yeah, ainoncheng, don't be a hater.
Haiya haha
I don't mind her, she's cool. I don't know what stress you're talking about
rice for cambodia is best of world beacuse of our rice win award top 1 in 2022 អ្នកទៅខេត្តកំពតកុំភ្លេចញ្ញាំធូរេនព្រោះខេត្តនេះមានធូរេនឆ្ងាញ់ជាងគេ👍👍👍
What a scam. Pepper is native to Kerala in South India. How is this the best pepper if it's the same species.
It’s where it’s raised, just like growing up in a family of drug heads versus in one that’s healthy and happy.
There's many of the same species of coffee, chocolates, cocaine.. yet some is better than the others. If you wasn't such a dumbass you'd understand. Get that scam BS out of here fool
