It has been for days that I have been searching for school and information for further my education level.
I desire to pursue MBA's degree from an advance university. So that I can develop my capability, knowledge and skills that enable me to help my company growth and able to compete with those foreign companies in my home country. By doing so, I am involved as party of my country development indirectly.
I am accepted by a university in Switzerland. However, it's a big amount of investment to complete my study. I have applied for two scholarships, one will result in May. Another scholarship deadline for application is in June, but i already submitted my documents and don't know when the result will be published.
I do hope that I would be awarded for one of the scholarships so my dream for my education will become true. I then will go to study at an advanced education system in the advanced country. Experience the new life that i wish for, the life of being independent, better life style, showing my culture while learning from those international students.
From then i will try to study hard, and do all my best to complete my study with a high grade. Showing that Cambodian students are hard working, ambitious, good character and the admirable nation.
Now please enjoy this inspire video. Actually it's a TV commercial which targets Cambodian New Generation!
This week has not been a good time.... I have been in a few tough situations, plus, so are my friends. That put me 6 feet underground. So down!
However, this morning when I got right in my office and checked my email, I received a great email which made it up for all the unhappy situation I have been in to. I am applying for a scholarship that provides fund to cover my MBA academic program. The scholarship requires to apply with a Letter of Acceptance from a university of choice. Then I applied to University of Business and Finance Switzerland.
What I receive is more than I expected. I hoped to be accepted by the school so that i can apply for the scholarship. Moreover, not only i am accepted by the university, but i also got a scholarship offered by the university of 8,000CHF (8425USD). It is the biggest or first prize of the scholarship that the university offers. That is not too big though!
First step was successfully passed. Since I can not afford to cover the rest amount of the fee and expenses. Now the next step is to submit the Letter of Acceptance and apply for a scholarship that provides fund to cover all the cost for the whole program.
I am not rich and I can't afford for my study, but I desire to further my education!!! I only can pray and hope to be awarded for the scholarship.
I have been to Vietnam for a few times, but did not enjoy it as much as this time. I went there with my parents on the 09th to 12th. We went my bus which departure was at 4:30AM, Ouch! Imagine how early we had to get up? Anyway because it was on the holiday and we had to pass a ferry, therefore we had to leave early to avoid the crowded and get stuck on the way.
I felt quite enjoy spending in Vietnam since most of the things there is cheaper than in Cambodia. I have happy that i could make my parents happy, enjoy and experience new things such going to a nice restaurant, seeing a latest funny movie in a modern cinema, seeing 3D and 4D movies, riding roller coaster and so on.
Using languages in Vietnam is crazy. There are not many people can speak English as well as in Cambodia. They only know their own language, few people can speak English and few can speak Chinese. Talking to the people there, i had to mix up two languages of English and Chinese together. It's kinda funny and crazy, but i like it and i find it fun. hehe
China was one of my holiday destinations. Eventually, i had made it to visit for eight days. It was a great tour itinerary, good arrangement, comfortable cold weather of 22°C, nice people of our tour group and it was a worthwhile chance that i happened to meet few more good friends.We went to many places and had different guides too. Being in China, speaking Chinese, eating and using Chinese products.... had the feeling of being in the original home.
In these below videos are our pretty Shanghai guide, describing about the Shanghai people and places. And our nice Beijing guide, singing a nice song for us on the bus.
Ping Ping, the Shanghai (上海) guide. Wen Long, the Beijing(北京) guide. On the first day, we flied to Shanghai and then we went to a 350 meters height tower, The Oriental Pearl Tower (东方明珠).
Then we went to AiyTan the area where we can take great photos of the tower surrounded by the other amazing buildings.
Jacky Chan and Spencer Lim.

NanJing the busy road.
Though not many of these dishes are my favorite, we had eight to ten dishes every meal. However, Chinese food is salty to me. During the meal we had this culture dance show, which was good. I like seeing cultural performing a lot.
In this picture, i am at Huanqoing Hall, the hall of Imperial Heavenly Vault.
The Temple of Heaven (天坛) where the emperor prayed for rains.
It's me in the General's dress. The hero. hehe ;-)
Zhenyangmen Gate The Great Hall Ofreople (人民大会堂)
The five pandas of Olympic Game, Beijing 2008, China. The forbidden city. Hourng Chav Hourng Kong, the 9999 rooms palace. The summer palace (颐和园) The Bird Nest stadium. The Great Wall of China (长城) At the Beijing airport, flying to Hangzhou (杭州). Sitting in a row eating chinese noodle... doesn't it look funny? Sorry for the ladies that i cropped out of this picture, because they were not eating noodle with us. haha. The corns are real black. I thought they boil them in chinese soup... but the corns come in black naturally. However, it doesn't taste as sweet as our yellow corn. These are my new friends. We always hang out together. The flag i'm holding is the tour's flag which the guide carries wherever we go and we have to follow the flag, not to get lost. It's a smart idea and very useful in a crowded place. Ou Mei Chun where well known as tea field area. This is how the tea is fried. This man is frying the tea with his bear hands. Note that it's hot! The sculptor of Lou Yiu -the tea master. I can't remember the name of this place, but it's in Shanghai. Where there are old model of houses of Chinese. Cherng Hourng Meav. On the Nan Jing road... again... for shopping to spend all the left money before going back home. Food at the airport is so expensive. Just a bowl of noodle it cost 68¥ (10.30$) Though, we did enjoy our meal and talk. A lot of fun! The first big guy from the left is the Beijing guide. Not to count him in, there were 15 of us on the tour. The front row in white long sleeves shirt with a big camera, is me. hehe.
