What's new for my local area!


Dear all,

Through my personal observation, since late yesterday and this morning, I have seen many communities (over 100 people) come to iREACH’s hubs to get hot news about the border dispute between Thailand and Cambodia. It seems that iREACH is the information stored.
Pls have a look picture at Prey Takoy hub which captured this morning.

Best regards,
Sokleap

iREACH

Look! where I am staying in Penang, Malaysia


I so miss my baby and my wife when I a way from them for two weeks abroad.

I am in Penang, Malaysia (Sept1-14, 2008)




Sokleap is attending the IDRC-PANdora Capacity Building Workshop (I+II) at Wawasan Open University, in Penang, Malaysia.

The IDRC-PANdora Capacity Building Workshop I was focusing much about Strategy Plan for Open Distance Learning (ODL). And the Workshop II will be focusing about the design of curriculum.

The strategy Plan for ODL was look into four sectors:

1. Environmental analysis including (1) social environment; (2) technology; (3) economic; (4) educational; and (5) political

2. Internal Competencies including (1) financial resources; (2) human resources; (3) media/communication; (4) teaching materials; and (5) support from government and stakeholder

3. Partnership including government (ministries), NGOs, community, private sector, media and potential donors

4. Marketing including TV, radio, print, e-web, seminar, exhibition and open ceremony

It was very interesting and useful capacity building workshop for those managers who are responsible for ODL even now and in the future.

Opinion

Dear all, 

The bellow message is what I want to share with you all because I think it is very positive information to who works on democracy.
I have observed on behavior of government officers and NGOs staff who were recruited at the locally that -  they have got a lot of information and news which could influence them to understanding the democracy.
 

When I went to the field at the first time, I did not see anyone sit down to read newspapers or even turned on a radio to listen. After a project has contributed the ICT to this rural area for many years, they started to read a newspaper, and listening to a radio.

The more they read a newspaper or listen to a radio, the more they get hungry news/information. They are hungry to read the newspaper everyday, listen to the radio via internet everyday that what I can see.

To me, this is a very important part of the ideology for democracy.

The more they have information/news, the more power they have in mind and the better understanding of democracy they get.
Where the news/information is, the democracy there.


I think it is very important to share the information/news at the rural area in Cambodia especially where the media doesn’t reach in order to integrate the democracy.

This is just my opinion only.

An experience of Sokleap at Kep




What I going to share you now it is not for you to be shad (Anet) but it is just want to share an experience.
Rainy Kep makes me remembered last year experience.

Sine yesterday and today, Aug 2008, there a lot of raining and winding here in Kep BUT I am still working in a nice office, nice desk and nice chair. Moreover, I can access to the internet with stable electricity that it is hugely different what was happening in July, 2007 while Kep iREACH start with little thing in term of office, internet and electricity.

This time of that time, least year, I was working under the tree, but 30mn latter I was running back to the office because of rainy season. Alas! Again, I was running out of office to work in the tent where a contractor of Kep iREACH office (HQ) renovation stocked the cement because we could not work in the environment of noisy, dusty of the building renovation. My laptop was on the table which was on the water and even my seat. My leg was on the brick, suddenly many insets was on my leg while my back was getting a piece of rain water (Dom Nok Tuek Pleang).

I was happy and I am happy when it was raining and it has raining while farmers also happy. Well, farmers are happy while it has raining because of they need water for their farm BUT I am so happy too, why?. There are two reasons bellow:
1. I am not take a bath with water which was brought from the pound anymore (it has a lot of worm, plants and mud). It mad me have disease (Romors) and heard hair.
2. I am happy instead of the farmer
.
This is just one of my experiences with working in Kep.
