Social development is the topic of the fifth game. We have 500$ in budget in order to make a project for helping one commune which locates in Kom Pong Speu province. We were trained how to make, manage project by one young lady working in one NGO.

For my group, we went there to ask what are the high potential need in their community. We had gotten information that, this place face water problem, no water system and depending on rains. That why we decide to buy three pump machine. As result, my group won in this episode.

Episode 4

This episode is one of hardest game, making spot. Before, just watching on the TVs but I don’t know how to make it. But in this game, they allowed the candidates to create spot which has 30s and focus on youth and election. Of course, it made me dizzy because we didn’t know how to handle with camera. Unbelievable, everything has gone smoothly and we had completed our works successfully. You know I am an actor of my spot….. It made me to become an old man….

The meaning of my spot: our group decided to make scenario, an old man and woman walking and dreaming on country development. This development is come from election which both old man and woman come to vote while they were youths.

As result, our group is lost because the judge thought that it was out of topic. Of course, my group idea is too deep that is hard to know our meaning. What I have learnt from this game?
The judge advise group that we need to fight in the proper point cuz we have only 30s.

Our charity, we went Krou Sar Thmey school teaching children who are blind, deaf, disability person. We bought sport equipments and gave 500$ for the whole school.

Happy Khmer New Year!!!!

Our program buy too many books for giving to school which locates in Kandal province. I am sorry that I don’t remember name of the school. This school has a small library which has not too much books. Of course, faces of these children seem to be happy.

Episode 2

“To be a blog instructor”, before I was an unknown person of blog information. Later on, one man name SAR Chesda tough me how to manage and post blog. Actually, I updated my ability of blog while I was using internet free at LRC, Learning Resource Center.

Now, on this game, they allowed all candidates to instruct people to have own blog. We did the same thing, we were divided into two groups. I was in Bassac group, that our strategy is finding the popular and high-speed internet café. Of course, we set a good strategy that there were too many people waiting and making blog. As a result, my group lost other group. You know what are the main mistakes “careless attention”. We made nearly 50 blogs but only 19 blogs which were corrective blogs that consistent to program condition.

What have I learned from this game? Everything is important in our works, even though it looks like a small thing but It can cause you have trouble. One theory said “one nail can make nation die”.

Youth Leadership Challenge has bought two new computers to Kdey Takoy secondary school. This school is a new recently construction which have not had enough equipments for office work.

Episode 1: To be a seller

“To be brave and clever” is a concept of this first series of the contest. I was a seller who sold souvenirs of FRIEND organization. First of all, I intend to give some information of FRIEND organization.

This NGO, its aim to help street children and youth, who addict drug or live on the street, moreover they assist poor communities which family standard is in anarchy. How does FRIEND org help? Of course, they teach those poor communities with easy job and catchable lesson. They use the recycle things like thrown-away newspaper, condoms etc. They use this kind of products to make a new-idea products. In addition, there are too many classes for children and youth whose families are poor. Most of these classes are technical classes, mechanic, electronic, cooking, haircut, beauty salons class for youth. And there are some classes which teach lesson to children and youth as well.

How can I help FRIEND org? I took FRIEND souvenirs from Toul Tom Purng market in order to sold these kinds of products to people. In my team, I divided into two team which had four people for each. I sold souvenirs around Kandale, Central, and Soriya market. I used COMMUNICATION skill in order to lobby people to buy those souvenirs. There was a hard task for me because I have not had enough experienced to be a sale person. Even though, I met that trouble but I did my best job. After selling, my team and other team gave all money, maybe around $300, to FRIEND’s CEO with extra money, maybe around $600.
