Out for the first time!

It has been a month since I started my work in a climate change project. I am not working as a climate change specialist but still a communication guy. Though, working in this project is my good chance to learn about this topic as the world is worrying about the global warming!

Early this month, I had a chance to meet project staff from the fields of the two targeted provinces, Kratie and Preah Vihea. Those are the people who work directly with farmers and make results. I learnt a lot of their experiences through personal conversations.

For privacy reasons, I will not show their photos here. But I still have some nice views of Kompong Cham, where I met them. (More photos, please see the photo section)

Waiting for the sunset or a boat?

The bridge is for my cows too!
Don't worry! We have the patrolling boats too!

Will Cambodia catch the cold?

When the US sneezes, the whole world catches the cold. It is of course true because the US is the most powerful country in both politic and economy. The current financial crisis is a clear example. The US banking system and corporations are facing unstable situations; public spending is down. Economic transactions between the US and the world are less. As the result, the world export to the US decreases. The main focus here is whether Cambodia is among the cold catchers. It is hard to deny that Cambodia is still healthy while others have already been affected. Some predictions, including the IMF and World Bank, say the country's garment sector, which depends heavily on the US market, will affect by the US consumer saving. But this is somehow not really true. Americans at this financial crisis period try to cut their spending on luxurious commodities. The General Motor example of being bankruptcy is a sign that cars are not American choices anymore. Cambodian garment, on the other h...

A long suffer from landmine

Resulted from decades of war, Cambodia is left with poor infrastructures and almost zero of human resources. Even worst, the country is still struggling with landmines, one of the country's silent killers. It a slow and paintful process to clear one signle landmine. A deminer could spend the whole day to just identify and clear one. All of my friends, I would like to invite all of you to spend 3 minutes on a documentary about landmine clearance. It is an effort to rescue land for farmers. Enjoy it and I am waiting for your comments.

Original please! Stop copying!

It is the second time this year that I heard about foreign entertainment companies planned to sue Cambodian firms for copying their work. It is applauded, by the way. Every time I listen to the current Cambodian music, I have the feeling of finding out where it is copied from. It is annoying! I could not relax with the music. That's why almost every month local firms are able to release at least an album! The number of album sung by a local singer exceeds even Michael Jackson's. Achieving that is very easy, sit down and copy. Those companies always complaint of pirate CDs copying their work, but they never admit their sin. Wake up, please!  If we put all the blames to the market or the audience, it is very wrong. Audience never like the copied ones although they prefer low cost. They would like great music, the one that they admire and appreciate! And if you tell me Cambodian music is invaded by foreigners' resulted from globalization's effect, it will never convi...
