Water Festival Day is the Selling Newspaper

During the three day of "Water Festival" we accepted one work of selling newspaper of Raksmey Kampuchea under the supporting from Mr. Pen Samitti. On that day we were very busy of selling and distributed the newspaper but on the first day we were told not to sell because there was an error at the printing house. Some of our friends were not happy but they took that chance to go sight seeing at the river bank.

(Even the newspaper still remained but every expressed a warm smile)

(Money from the selling was not enouh with the payment from the lecturer)

Our group sold the newspaper at the different places and faced with a happy and tiring activities in the crowded of people. This was the first time that we acted as newspaper boy and girld. However, we took that ocassion to be our experience or the practising to the theories of journalism. Being a journalist what they see and what they garther the information. Everything was just the practice. That was not our responsibility or work to do but we would like to know and face with the tase of life being as newspaper boy and girl.

Two days of selling made us know the way to doing business, living, working, relation, information garthering, the statistic of news reader, and co-corporation in work and study. Even the result was not good but we still encouraged all of us every time. Work leaded us the result so we can see what we did. For the future we will try to work, study more and more. On behalf of we are media student we can see what the situation the statistic of the popularity of news reading of Cambodian people specially the environment which can enable us for the next day to do or not to do.

On the way to the pagoda there were many things which troubled us such as the dusty street and traffic jam with lots of cares, trucks, motors were queuing. However, we took motorbike so we could move in all situations. It took us may be around one hour to release ourselves from the traffic.

Beside we did that, we noticed some were playing game happily and some were sleeping or seeing the view from the car window. Another thing, on the way forward there the rain came along it seemed that it wished our tripe successfully, joyfully; however, we still hope that we could swim in the sea. Luckily, the weather forcast announced that on that day no rain at all but that prediction was fail. When nearly reached the shihaknouk ville we looked around us with mountains, forest, dark cloud and then it was starting rain.

Good Memories still exist in mind of everyone never end forever. We always be together, work altogether, love each other.

The 30th a Day Teaching of Group Youth and Responsibility

On the same day of 30th in August, group youth and responsibility began their teaching in the afternoon after group of "WISH WOMEN" successfully finished. Overview the scene of their teaching it was quite good because there were 17 trainees from different high school joined in that occasion. The teaching focused on what youth can do to they themselves and the society. By seeing the fogotten of responsibility of youth so this group conducted this course to share knowledge and experiences to trainees.

(Group discussion on topic "what is the youth's responsibility?")

On the whole of teaching they made the trainees to participate in the group discussion which encouraged them to expresse idea about youth's responsibility. The trainers made the lesson went smoothly and very joyful because everyone laughed and smiled. That was one key encouragement to motivate the trainers had more power in their work. Noticeable the trainers proposed some suggestion to the trainers not to forget their duty to the society and they themselves. "It will be good to all youth if they think they are important", said Vathana the facilitator of this group. However, some trainees said that it because the society did not give them chance and some happy with the light of the society or drug additive. In addition, some said in the different way that it could be that some parts and other was that the theory was said easy but practise was quite different.

(Youth can do all thin but they do not know what they shoul start)

(The sharing what they know to each other during the discussion)

By dean of these cases, they motivated them to adapt all what they should do in the real practice. It was the fact that it was difficult to do more than recite the theory but know better than not. As a result one proverb said that "make good all the time even now something is not better but it will be better when it is needed." Anyway, the participation of the youth that time screened what youth now yet forget what theirs. And this training will let them to bring the messages to other to consider the consequences. "We can not reach in a mass but step by step is better", said Dalen one of the facilitator in this training. Lots of idea came up during the training from all the trainees they were quit good and acceptable. "Rather than these, we strongly hope what we gave them, they could use and spread to educate or share experience to friend, villigers, brothers, sisters...", added by Ms. Sok Leng, the facilitator.

(The preparation of playing game which show about the unity of youth)

The participation of all this time made the society and other became better and got success in life sooner and later.
