In Liger we’ve been learning about Entrepreneurship. The goal of the Entrepreneurship Exploration is to let students making their own business, design and how to become a good business. So every students has their own business. We also learning how to create a product from 3D printing to sell. I got my partner Kimseng to work with me. His a marketer and I am the designer. My product called 3d-Tech and it helps to cool down the computer. We sell about 65 products and of all the students we got the most profits. But when we sell to some customer the product not giving so much benefits to them. But we’ll try to solve out the solutions.

Photography Class

To accomplish the goal for the Phnong Exploration, we need to take a lot of photos. So, seven weeks before the Exploration started, the other students and I that are in the group were starting learning about photography. We learn about different ways to take clear pictures in different situation. In addition, we are also learning about ways to use the camera properly, effectively, and correctly. Beside learning in class, we also get to try to actually take some photos and that was the so fun. I took a lot of weird photos that look very silly. 

When its time to take the real photo, I think I did a great job. I took some great photos that later were nominated to be apart of the book. I am so happy and so proud of myself. 

The Preservation Of Bunong Culture

 

Almost all countries of the world are existing minorities, including Cambodia as well. There are approximately twenty indigenous minorities living in Cambodia, which most of them inhabit the Northeast and East. In this
exploring project, we will basically study about Bunong people who is one of the Cambodian indigenous minorities. Students will conduct cultural studies, particularly their culture, belief, lifestyle, interaction, tradition, right, living situation and so on. In this research, students will partly focus on the present issues applying influences over their living conditions. The faith, which is a crucial component, will be proposed to students to explore as it is supposed to be a fascinating topic and different from Khmer majorities. Also, we will find out how they are able to preserve their cultural traditions even it’s currently under the management of government authorities. Increasingly, we will have a field trip to Mondulkiri, where Bunong communities are situated in, to
discover directly from them by interviewing and seeing obvious aspects surrounding them. The trip will be collaborated with ICSO, which is closely working with indigenous communities in Cambodia. After seven weeks
over the course, students will be able to illustrate their understandings of Bunong people and be aware of current issues they are facing, so they can find some solutions to cope with those. Students will publish a book
with photographs, that will be described, they captured as their final product of the exploration to share with government schools in Cambodia, as well as the world. Additionally, they will have practiced with learning outcome skills such as interviewing, presentation, computer development and experienced learning outside the classroom and expertise with photographs.

Red Genius Speaking Car

This is apart of our literacy class. We are practicing our writing skill. We are writing a imagination story that start with “One time” then continue the story.  

Here is my story:

One morning I woke up and to my surprize I saw a luxury Chevrolet Camaro near my bed. Then I told the Camaro that I am going to call you buddy. The Camaro promised me that he will be the best speaking car ever. I drove the car to Kampong Spue to meet my mom. I didn’t really drive the car, that red genius speaking car drove itself to my hometown with me giving him the coordinates on the world map. Once I reached my hometown I showed my mom the red genius speaking car and she loved it. We have an idea of showing this red genius speaking car to Seyha. So he can make more of the car to give and sell to other people it would cost a lot of money but the result will be awesome. This car was famous. They showed in the TV, radio and newspaper. Then every person in the world know about Chevrolet Camaro. The result was I can have a lot of money and famous and Chevrolet Camaro have a lot of friends because every family in the world had at least one Chevrolet Camaro.

“To Keep You Is No Benefit, To Destroy You Is No Loss”_Pol Pot

In 17, April 1975, Khmer Rouge took control over Cambodia. In only three years, one fourth of the whole Cambodian population died by starvation, sickness, executed and tortured. Cambodian were forced to work almost twelve hours a day with very little of food. Cambodia, the country with the increasing economy has fall down at the lowest point of it history. Almost all intellectual and those who are talented and skilled were killed. 

This poem is talking about the dark regime of Khmer Rouge and the briefly about the lives of Cambodian during that  time.

Khmer Poem (Getting Homesick)

This is apart of what we are doing now in Khmer class. We are learning how to write Khmer Poem and implement those concepts. Here is one of it. It is about how I get homesick when I came to learn here in Liger. It includes the memories that I had done with my family at home. If you can read Khmer, I believe it can be an emotional poem. 

 

អារម្មណ៍នឹកផ្ទះ(​សម្ភស្ស)

ពេលបានមករៀននៅLiger ក្នុងចិត្តរង្គើរចង់ជួបប៉ា
ហើយថែមទាំងជួបម៉ាក់ផងណា នៅស្រែនោះណាឆ្ងាយអើយឆ្ងាយ។

នាខែកត្កិក​ធ្លាប់ធ្វើការ មិនឲ្យម៉ាក់ប៉ាគាត់ខ្វល់ខ្វាយ
ច្រូតកាត់ដកស្ទូងមិននឿយនាយ មិនខ្វល់ខ្វាយគ្រឿងញៀនកញ្ចា។

ពេលនៅសាលាLigerវិញ ចិត្តខ្ញុំទន្ទិញចង់ធ្វើការ
តែនេះមិនដូចស្រែទេណា ​សូម្បីសាលាក៏ខុសគ្នា។

ម៉ាក់ខ្ញុំបានប្រាប់ខ្លួនខ្ញុំថា សម្ភស្សអើយណាកុំគ្រាំគ្រា
យើងគង់តែមានពេលជួបគ្នា នៅពេលវេលាមួយមិនខាន។

ហើយគាត់បានប្រាប់ខ្ញុំទៀតថា ​​ កូនត្រូវសិក្សាណាកណ្យាល
មិនត្រូវធ្វើជាក្មេងកោងកាន ត្រូវតែក្លាហានក្នុងជីវិត។

នេះជាអារម្មណ៍នឹកផ្ទះ​ណា អ្វីដែលបរិយាជាការពិត
និយាយមែនតទែនមិនប្រឌិត វាជាជីវិតរបស់ខ្ញុំ។

 

Eco_Tourism In Cambodia

 

Ecotourism means to travel to natural areas that protect environment and help people life at location became better. Ecotourism was also about helping to preserve the environment. Our ecotourism group went to Chi Phat to study about the ecotourism in Chi Phat. Also we learned about how ecotourism in Chi Phat are different from other ecotourism sites. Our big goal when we went to Chi Phat was to interview as many people as possible. We interviewed different people to get different answers and all the people had different perspectives. After we interviewed a lot of people we came back and studied about the information we found some areas of concern. Our group made a recommendation to Chi Phat community about the areas of concern. Some areas of concern are education, transportation, marketing, collaboration, and energy. After we finished we will send it to Martin and Prom Hong, the CBET (Community Based Ecotourism Site) directors.

 

 

Khmer History

In Khmer History Round 3 class we learned about Khmer Rouge. First teacher Darath talked about his family life during Khmer Rouge. Then we started to do the research project about Khmer Rouge individually. After researching we presented it to our classmates. We learned about the timeline, Khmer Rouge actions and listened to the audio about:

. who were Khmer Rouge

. how they took control and got the power from Sihanouk

. daily life during Khmer Rouge

. foreign relationships

In our class we listened a lot to presentations, video and audio. It sounded scary when we listened to the audio because Khmer Rouge hurt, kill, deported the family and kidnapped the kids to kill their parents if they did something wrong. It was scary, but it is important to learn about this because we can remember our own country history and it could be our knowledge.

War and Peace

This class is war class. We learned about different kindsof war and talked about history of wars. Example: Cold war, WW1 and WW2. WW stands for World War. In class we did the research project in pair about war history then presented it to our classmates. For example: What kind of war was the biggest war in the world? Later on after the students presented  their presentation, the teacher presented to us about World War 1 and World War 2. He explained about the reasons why it happened, how can it become a world war, who had involved and its timeline. We even talked about world leaders and how they led their country when there was a conflict or war.
