the 1st day when I reached there and what the 1st thing came out in my mind... the air there is so dusty!!! and i saw the children was picking the rubbish to eat !!! omg ~~~

the traffic there is so messy and dangerous !!! the motorist are not wearing helmets and the roads is so narrow...

the 1st place

that we went to was an orphanage. it was actually not in our itinerary but we request it as our social service. it is one the of big orphanage in cambodia. it can accommodate around 6000 - 7000 children. the orphanage guide leaded us walk around the orphanage and understand how does the orphanage operate ... of coz we had prepare something to donate to the orphanage and also TJ gave some candies to them. when we reached there was around 4-5pm of local time , most of the student were leave already...


after dinner at local restuarant we went back to our hotel which is "Pacific Hotel" at Phnom Phem town. one day before we went to Cambodia was our dearest classmate Sinsien & Hannah birthday...

everybody gathered together and used meeting as an excuse to "cheat" them coz we prepared a big surprise for them.

..... next day .....


we went to Royal Palace. the buildings... " c'est magnifique" !!! and some of the buddha statue are make by jade , ruby , silver , gold even diamond some more...

after that, we went to "Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum" which known as S-21 prison. in 1975, Khmer Rouge Regime, it was a high school and then it converted as a Prison. it is a horrible place.and also a horrible and sad period for all of the Cambodians when Khmer Rouge Period.

after that, we went to the Russian Market. all the trade in Cambodia are mostly using USD or Khmer... at there,i bought some of scarfs, 2 clothes and key chains... but the key chain is so expensive. after TJ & me bought the key chain and vincent went to another side to buy and he gt the cheaper price than us... means we gt trick already !!!
