Comments by Soohyung Lee, on The Gender Wage Gap in Cambodia.

The article by Soohyung Lee in the Asian Economic Papers discusses the gender wage gap in Cambodia, highlighting the importance of utilizing female labor for a country's economic growth. The study uses data from the Cambodia Socio-Economic Survey to show that female wage earners in Cambodia earn significantly less than male wage earners, with observable differences accounting for only a small portion of this gap. The author suggests addressing missing information in the study, further investigating the underlying mechanisms behind the gender gap in Cambodia, and conducting a longer-term analysis post-COVID-19 to understand its impact on the gender wage gap.
