APAD 131: Coaster
I made this myself several full moons ago… I love the combination of these three colours turned out!
Made by Sreisaat. You can find more about my crafting activities at Crafting with Sreisaat (sreisaatcrafts.wordpress.com).
I have a huge stash of crochet yarns that needed busting. These are acrylic yarns from Thailand, if I am not mistaken. The coaster is actually a granny square. I’m planning to starch it so it stays hard and in shape. The beautiful coffee mug, by the way, was bought from one of the stores found at the ground floor of the KLCC Shopping Mall. That’s nearly a decade ago and I still have it with me. It comes with a matching lid to keep the beverage – coffee or tea – warm.
APAD 130: No to sex tourism!
Found this at the entrance gate of a boutique hotel in Phnom Penh. It just reminds you of the many problems people encounter in this country, especially the women and children. There’s a lot of information on sex trafficking on the Internet and it’s enough to make you angry.
The tourism industry and other businesses in Cambodia have joined forces with NGOs and government agencies to combat this issue and pledged to cooperate with authorities in spotting and reporting cases. Also part of the tourism industry’s pledge is to provide training to their staff on how to recognise and report child sexual exploitation.

I did some edits here using Picasa. You can find the original photo posted here.
APAD 128: Limestone mountain
The limestone mountains in Kampot’s Kampong Trach district. Not a lot of people know that in this mountain the soil is uniquely purple. We do not know why it is so. Also inside is a shrine and a naturally-formed pool with very cold water.
