My Cambodia Adventure

Ranked #1,885 in Travel & Places, #67,412 overall

Our Cambodia Adventure Started in 2002

We had been back and forth to Cambodia since 2002 on different contracts but working with either the Ministry of Labour, Vocational Training or the Ministry of Education or directly with the Asian Development Bank. Over the past two years, with a hint of semi permanence, we have taken a 3 bedroom apartment so families and friends can visit. Before this, we hid mostly in local hotels as we only stayed for 3 or 5 months and then off to another country for another contract. The influx of visitors has been fun as the long journey firewalls the high maintenance types and brings in those who have learned the difficult art of being good guests.

Cambodia is building momentum as a developing country. Some of its major institutions are just beginning to function more effectively as the next generation masters the skills lost in the massive Pol Pot extinction effort of the recent past. Now gaining ground are some of these government institutions such as water authority and postal services. These will be listed in the soon to be opened national stock exchange. Private businesses are expanding and more foreign investors are taking a foothold as infrastructure projects are making in-country transport and communications more accessible.

Planning an adventure to Cambodia?

Get yourself one of these guides

You are better off getting one that includes Laos, Vietnam and Thailand as they are close to each other...an hour flight or a 6 hour bus ride so make sure you include these countries when you plan for your trip.

What Cambodia offers

Rural Life, Temples, Rivers and Culture

There is a wealth to be experienced in Cambodia. It is because of these myriads of experience that many foreigners who had been to Cambodia choose to stay. While the trials still remind us of what happened in Cambodia at its darkest hour in history, the Pol Pot era, the temples and rites remind us of its glory when the Khmer Empire was at the height of its power in the area now mostly covered by Indo-China.

Although I have studied Asian hisotry and civilization, I was not prepared for what I saw in Angkor. I was amazed to see how advance the water systems were and how enlightened its leaders were around 12th century and even earlier. It was an experience to see how developed Cambodia was at that point in history especially when one sees the intricate architectural styles used in the temples. My mind tried to have a vivid picture of how life was lived in that enormous complex we see now. It must have been magnificent.

What Really Matters to a Cambodian Khmer

A Life Centered on Buddhism

The base for Cambodia's development

Rural family power

We have been in most parts of the country visiting villages to find out what local folks want in the way of development help. Our main involvement is in designing systems and programs in education and skills development. Our first recommendation centered around community responsive skills training. Given the level of the country's development, the demand for very basic skills is astounding. Imagine what happens when electricity arrives, or the concept of market choice or a road for motorbikes.

Villagers are happy that now they are learning the first platforms of science to improve agriculture production and earn a little bit of money to have a better quality food and a pride building house for their families. When the notion of hope for tomorrow replaces in part the enormous fear from the past, rural family power is unprecedented.

80% of Cambodians live in the rural areas

So development targets this

It is important to drive development down to the remote areas to stop people from flocking in urban areas to find employment. As this creates more social problems that drain the country's resources. 80% of Cambodians live in the rural areas right now so development has to target this segment.

Government in Cambodia is growing in capacity

Involving people and private sector

It is not only the villagers who are growing. The government is also growing in its capacity to involve people and the private sector as well as in their application of new learned skills and knowledge from all the mini-training, workshops and seminars offered right in the rural communes . There is growth and as in many other countries, the enterprising ones take hold of these new opportunities and establish themselves quickly. The others sometimes become the walking wounded of well-intentioned but poorly planned development.

Getting on with development in Cambodia

With development's accompanying problems

Cambodia Adventure

In the past several years, Phnom Penh's landscape has changed along with that of Sihanoukville, Siem Reap and Battambang. Even the remote provinces are now getting on the development truck fast as tourists, investors and Cambodians themselves visit their once inaccessible areas. As food and resource panic hits rich neighbours, plantations are sprouting like mushrooms in the backwoods and new mines are opened. Garment factories have moved in to take advantage of cheap labor. And with these are the social problems that accompany most development such as exploitation of labor and women, the lack of protection for vulnerable sectors of society and human rights but also the expansion of non-government and charitable organizations, some of which are more interested in being noticed than helping out. Balancing development priorities is nearly impossible, only continuing compromises are possible as development continues.

Cambodia continues to build its charm

Try it for yourself

Still, Cambodia continues to build its charm as the once touted Paris of the East. Phnom Penh, its capital city has wide open boulevards that skirt around the confluence of three great rivers. Hotels, guest houses, restaurants, wine bars and fashion houses are opening every day. For many foreigners a 3 day stopover between Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh becomes a long term vacation destination as the warmth of the people, the beaches, the fabulous monuments of history as well as a scintillating night life, and really manageable costs make it almost perfect for Barangs.

Yes, Cambodia offers the Angkor Wat, a symbol of its once powerful hold on many countries in Asia. It also offers remnants of the French presence in the country for many years. And of course, the more recent conflict that not only destabilized the country but left its people with painful memories that still seek justice and healing.

Cambodia's Culture

An Encounter with Theravada Buddhism

Little did I know that I am very ignorant about Buddhism. Even if somewhere in my mind resides Mahayana Buddhism, I have no memory of Theravada Buddhism. It was just Buddhism as far as I was concerned until I met our monk friend who patiently explained to me the distinguishing features of the type of Buddhism practiced in Cambodia. I learned so much from this encounter which started when once we were driven by our curiosity to find out what was happening inside the temple during one of the important celebrations. We went in and a monk took pity on us and enlightened our ignorance of what was going on. Since then, we meet him regularly and the sharing is often very lively.

Here are some of the key ceremonies in Cambodian life based on Theravada Buddhism:

    This is a terrific lens on a developing country, I would love to go to Cambodia and see some of the amazing sights. It's so sad that a corrupt government can do so much harm to a whole generation of people, but now at least Cambodia has a chance to redevelop and the people have a chance to live. This lens has so much information on Cambodia, you did a great job, blessing left behind.

My favourite novel on Cambodia 

Written by a Cambodian

First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers (P.S.)
