Hi Somongkol
Greetings from Limkokwing University Malaysia.
I came across your sharing “FRom Kingdom of Cambodia to USA. I hope you are still able to get this comment of mine.
Firstly congratulations for being granted to pursue your masters in USA. I am sure you are already in your 2nd year of the master.
The reason I am writing to you is that I am doing a market research on Cambodia as the Limkokwing University has been invited and approved to set up a campus in Phnom Penh next year. I am finding a little difficult to get data about youth population, secondary schools data. Since you have indicated that you want to continue working for the Dept of Higher Education in Cambodia, I would like get your help to direct me to the right people for information. I must do a marketing plan for it, so whatever information will help me very much. Please, you can contact me at julie@limkokwing.edu.my
Thank you for your attention and hope to hear from you.

[...] The Cambodian Fulbright scholar talks a lot about his student life in the United States as well as Cambodia affair in the news. “Somehow the charismatic force that holds this fantastic band together is a famous Cambodian singer, Chhom Nimol, whom the band recruited after scouring the scene in Long Beach , which is home to the largest Cambodian population outside Cambodia, for a front woman to interpret the Khmer-language songs that so compelled them.” [...]

Dear Mr. Teng,

Congratulation for your wonderful achievement. The Royal University of Phnom Penh was my play ground in 1980, especially sliding through the steep projected doom near the main street. Of course, it was abandoned then. Anyway, I am living in NH but working in Lowell, MA, where I am one of medical practitioners at Lowell Community Health Center/Metta Health Center. Presently, I am in the process of finishing my Ph.D. in nursing. Be proud to be a Cambodian. Hope that I will see you sometimes in the future. My office’s e-mail: chhanto@lchealth.org

Best regard,

Chhan D. Touch
