It was exactly one month last week when the border conflict erupted in Preah Vihear province. The situation is very calm now. People, who fled their homes during the conflict, are back and continue their businesses as usual. Though, the conflict is still the hottest topic of everyday conversations.
But for me, it is not my visit's interest. I was there neither to visit the temple nor to find out what was going on. My purpose was to see my on-going environmental project's activities, helping farmers to adapt to climate change impact.
It was my first time to actually be in the field and met project staff and farmers, who my every work is aimed for. I had a very good opportunity to learn from them and especially to see all beautiful sites.
Below are some of the photos from the visit and

This is one of the typical farmers' houses in rural Cambodia and notably they are renovated when people's incomes are increased. |

After the border conflict, Preah Vihear province gets more development attentions, and this irrigation project is one of the on-going efforts! |
