Provide training to 30 students from PSE

MONDAY, MAY 03, 2010

Hello my friends and readers. I know it has been awhile that i haven't written my blog, but time passes very quickly and life is getting busier.

However, i have a good news to share with you. Another reason that i have been busy beside my studies and career, is that i met my lady and we are in love. Actually, i could have had posted a lot of update and photos of us, but to respect her and our privacy.... i wouldn't expose too much on the internet (ˆˆ,) though i know my good friends out there is excited and happy for me to hear this news, right? Thanks you guys for being my good friends over the years and being supportive. I miss everyone and hope to see you one day soon.

By the way, today i'm blogging about a nice gesture that our company has done for young students and i have this chance to participate. Today we provided a training to 30 students from PSE (Pour un Sourire d’Enfant).

PSE is an NGO for orphanage. Its full name is in french which is Pour un Sourire d’Enfant, in khmer is អង្គការដើម្បីភាពញញឹមន័យកុមារ. Our company the EUROTECH is having a strategy in Social Activities. At this time we have a participation with PSE which allow us the opportunity to help those students to gain experiences of what they have learned in school for real case. I am personally very grateful to be assigned in this responsibility which provide me the chance to do something good for the poors and orphans.

e-Learning on KM by APO

TUESDAY 09 to FRIDAY 12 MARCH, 2010

There are reasons that motivate me in joining Eurotech company.

Mainly, because it is the only drinking water in Cambodia that is recognized and certified by several standards that include, ISO 9001:2008, UK Quality Control, and Cambodia Water Standard. Moreover, the company integrates some other standards management system such as "5S, KAIZEN" and GMP.

Another reason, is that the company has been selected by certain productivity improvement organizations, so that they have a lot of training available for their staff. Those trainings usually conducted in various Asian countries.

Besides those professional motivations, i also have some personal objectives. I changed my job and join EUROTECH because i wish to be more dependent and further my career adventures.

These photos below are the e-learning course on Knowledge Management conducted at CJCC organized by Asian Productivity Organization (APO) on 09th-12th March 2010.
It was a great training. Not only the course is useful to apply at our organization to improve the productivity and growth, but it was an interacting class with 5 other classes in Iran, Mongolia, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. Moreover, the resource speakers were online from Singapore, Phillipe, and Japan.

Organization Transformation and Leadership of PPWSA

This morning I have attended a valuable seminar at CJCC from 08:30am-11:30am. The seminar was on Organization Transformation and Leadership: The case of Phnom Penh Water Supply Authority Transformation and Achievement. Conducted by H.E. Ek Sonn Chan the General Director of PPWSA.

I’ve never known H.E. Sonn Chan before, but attending the seminar this morning makes me like him a lot and proud of him. He is a remarkable person who has put a lot of his effort and commitment to achieved such impressive goal of his, to provide clean water to everyone in the city. He has shared his successful experiences of leadership and how to meet our goals.

What he showed during the seminar was transparency and very useful for young people and potential leaders.

I have attended seminars and trainings at CJCC for many times and never regret the time I have spent there. I’m thankful for CJCC the Japan organization who has been helpful in developing the Cambodian Human Resources.

P&G's Leadership and Marketing

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 08, 2009

I attended a useful lecture at a workshop at my university.

The College of Management in collaboration with Goodhill Enterprise hosting a presentation on "Leadership and Marketing" by Mr. Samuel S. Kim, Regional Vice-President of Procter & Gamble (P&G) in the UC Conference Centre.

The first thing i was impressed was the Potato chip. At the registration desk, they give each participant a long can of potato chip. No doubt it is one of the P&G products, but i think it's a little expensive to do so as there were about two hundreds students attended the workshop. Beside the potato i saw a long table of snacks and drinks to be served for refreshing.

The presentation was very interesting, plus Mr. KIM shared us his experiences in leadership and marketing which was very useful and inspired me somehow. After his presentation, there were challenging questions raised by the students. I am so glad and proud of our Cambodia students today is so brave and intelligent. The Korean man Mr. KIM and his people who came along with him, genuinely admired the students.

Eurotech ISO Certification

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 27, 2008

Firstly, let me express myself. I am thankful for you, my friends who always care to keep update with me as well as reading my blog. I appreciate that!
I am excited to write this post about my best friend Jerry (actually he's my nephew), of his achievement and the success of his business. I am so proud of him as a young businessman, or I may say "businessboy" (",)


On the 27th of December, he arranged an event at Phnom Penh Hotel. It was about his company Eurotech Drinking Water is certified for ISO 9001:2000, the International Production Quality

So sad that I could not attend the event, because on that day I had to go to Siem Reap to attend another of my nephew's wedding. However, I helped him for some tasks also. We always help each other, and treat for lunch or dinner. Anyway, it's not about treating but we just love to hang out. hehe. Most of the time I help him with graphic designs, and he helps me for IT. That are our specialists of skills :-)

My Scottist best friend Daniel, also involved in the help for the event. During the event, they played a video of their production at their factory, which in the video Daniel was a presenter. The video was made about one year ago, but we just got to see it now. It is funny that in the video, Daniel was sounded in Khmer language. Please see the video at the below of this blog.

Now let me give a brief description about the event agenda:
1- The event starts at 4PM for guests registration
2- GM of the Eurotech company gives a welcome speech and begins the event
3- During the reception, there were performances of singing, dancing and catwalk
4- Guests can join fun games to win some prizes
5- GM gives introduction of the company, products and ISO certification
6- Withdrawing lucky draws, there are 50 prizes. The biggest prizes are Refrigerator and 29" Color TV

Alright, now enjoy the photos and videos below with description!

During Jerry's speech, he showed the video of Eurotech production on a large screen. You can see the video(s) on the bottom of this blog.

DNA of HONDA Production

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 06, 2008
Today I attended a seminar on Honda Way on New Car Development: DNA to Innovation which was a business seminar series conducted at Cambodia-Japan Cooperation Center (CJCC). The presentation conducted by Mr. Toshio BAN, President, Sociobiz Research. He is a former Managing Director of Honda Foundation, and used to be the Principal of Honda International Technical School. It was such a useful lesson to learn and experience. Plus, they provided good facilities, materials, food and coffee. I had a good time with my sticky friend Jerry. We had breakfast together then attend the seminar, coffee break and lunch. What was annoying and embarrassed me was the ringing phone of the participants during the training. Why could not they switch to silent or vibrate? Did they feel embarrass when their phone rings during the lecture while everyone was quiet and concentrating? When they can understand?
It's coffee break time!!! I like the coffee and the snack. Look at the cute and small chinese cookie!

Maintaining Development into WTO

TUESDAY, JULY 01, 2008

On the above date, i attended a workshop about "Maintaining Development into WTO" which was organized by Economy Institute of Cambodia (EIC) and supported by CUTS International. It was great that the workshop took place at Cambodiana Hotel which is a 5 stars class.

I enjoyed it a lot, not only that i liked the 5 stars hotel services but also had that opportunity to join such a formal and educational event. At the beginning i was kinda nervous too actually. I was guided to sit at the first row next to the panel.

It was a whole day workshop from 8:30 to 5:00. There was two coffee breaks and lunch at the hotel.
The topics on that day were:
1- "Cambodia's Economy WTO accession after 5 years" by Mr. Neou Seiha, Senior Researcher, Economic Institute of Cambodia.
2- "Aid for Trade/Trade SWAP" by Mr. Hang Sochivin, Ministry of Commerce.
3- "Integrating Cambodia's Development Strategy into Multi-Trade Strategy" by Mr. Tekreth Samrach, Council of Minister.
4- "Cambodia Global Economy and Commodity Prices" by Mrs. Kim Natacha, Editor-in-Chief of Economics Today Magazine.

At the end of each session we had discussion and Q&A.

Symposium in Vietnam

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2007

My co-worker and I were sent to Vietnam 3 days and 2 nights to attend my company’s partner’s symposium.

The company there welcomed us warmly and treated us like ambassador s. They arranged a single room hotel for each of us, brought us to expensive restaurants, café…. Interestingly, they sent their staff to host us like sending us hang out around the town, visit their company getting to know the important staffs in different departments. The city is quite big and it costs much to go from one place to another by taxi, however, everything is officially paid by them.

The symposium was held at Hotel Equatorial in Ho Chi Minh City. All participants are offered one lunch and a couple of coffee breaks there… It’s a five stars hotel, so each meal was awesome!

Why a couple of coffee breaks? Because we had seminar and exhibition for sessions.The theme of the symposium is “Energy Efficiency”. I attended 3 trainings which were: Energy Monitoring and Management in Industry using SCADA, Total System Energy Saving Solutions and Reducing Your Energy Bill by Understanding Your Energy Consumption.

Being in Vietnam this time is much different, not only in term of business but also fun. Vietnamese girls are eye-candy he he. Vietnamese girls like Cambodian guys very much; this is according to my observation and being explained by the host.

These few days, not only my mouth got great food but my eyes also got delicious food too ha ha. My mouth got Vietnamese and Korean food; my eyes got seeing pretty girls.

Cut the bow and start up
