Making a different in Phnom Penh

Most of us including myself keep complaining about traffic situation in Phnom Penh nowadays. How many hours do we have to spend in traffic jam each day? Isn’t it a waste of time? Being stuck in the traffic jam wasted our time, plus affected our feeling, isn't it?

So what can we do instead of keep complaining and being angry?

Please find in attachment file for the announcement of fund raising for printing T-shirt (campaign), Please make best used of your few dollars/riel to make a small different in Phnom Penh. We all wanted to tell people to respect traffic light, this T-shirt will help to tell them. This campaign is NOT a project of any organization, association, or government agency; it is truly a project initiated by young people of Cambodia who care to make a simple practical step toward better Cambodia . The T-shirt will be done by the end of June 2009.

Those who make contribution will get one (or more) T-shirt back! Good deal?

If you wish to make contribution, you can contact me at anytime (7 days a week, 24 hours a day). Please include your full name, telephone number or e-mail and most importantly the amount of money you wish to contribute and how the money can be delivered. Please note that any amount (1$ or 1,000 reil) is counted.

A better Phnom Penh start with me and you !

The Heart or The Brain?

Have you ever experienced when your heart and your brain are fighting each other? What will you do if for example, your heart like to do something but your brain said to you No you can't do this? will you follow what your heart want or follow what your brain said?

Give me some advice, please!

Difficult decision

If you have only one choice and have to choose between Hurting yourself and Hurting other, which one would you choose?

In life, sometime we do need to make harmful decision. In theory, we all try to choose the win-win solution, however, in practice sometime we can't always be win-win, someone need to lost. isn't it?

Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul

I read a book last night "Chicken Soup for the teenage soul". Here are some interesting quotes:

"Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all"
Isn't it the oppisite from Khmer culture??

"Treat yourself as a whole person, not half a couple"
Many young Khmer women think that they lose their half when they broke up. Why can't they treat themselves as a whole person by themselves??? My boyfriend is an extra part of my life, but without him, I am still a whole Nana. I might lose the extra part of my life, but not half of my life.

"You never lose by loving, you always lose by holding back"
If you feel loving someone, let him or her know. Trust their answer no matter Yes or No, rather than he or she didn't know at all.

What do you think?

Thanks to a friend of mind, Pahnarath for giving me the book. I have learn alot from it.
