Dear Guest,

First of all I’d like to wish you a happy, healthy and prosperous 2016!

Today is not only the start of a new year, but also the start of a new website or, as we call it, a new concept.
I can hear you thinking; “another website related to Cambodia?” Let me tell you that, unlike many other websites, it’s our aim to bring the news as experienced by Cambodians. What do they read in their local newspapers and what do they see on their local television channels? Which information do they exchange on their social media? In short, the pulse of Cambodia.
Whether we agree with others or not; there’s nothing more important than looking into someone’s mind, trying to understand someone prior to judge him/her, let alone try to change his/her opinions. This should be a lesson for both, immigrants (or expats if you like) and tourists.
It won’t be easy to create these insights by just publishing a couple of articles; there’s not only the language barrier but also the difference in interests between different generations, there’s the loaded history,… Each person is unique so we can’t bring an image as seen by a society by bringing the image as seen through the eyes of one single person. This concept needs some time and hopefully over the years it will lead to some interesting insights.

It’s our goal to bring the articles, posted on the website, as brought by the local (social) media. This doesn’t mean that they can’t be discussed, hence the implementation of a discussion board.

This concept is a first of its kind, which means that there’s still a lot of room for improvement. Technically and conceptually. Please share all your suggestions; by completing the form, by replying on the articles, by posting on the forum,…

Finally I’d like to thank you for your visit and wish you a good reading.

Yours sincerely,
Koon Khmer
