Posted by The Insider on Nov 15, 2011 in A Photo a Day, Addicted to Meme, All things Khmer, Cambodia, Cambodia life, transportation, travel, work | 3 comments

This is the alternative road, National Road 2,  going to Kampot province. As you can see, it is very quiet with only a horse-drawn cart plying the route. Along with ox-driven carts, they are considered the kings of this road.

This is my 2ooth entry – yipeeeeee! – and it’s for this week’s Our World Tuesday.Click on the logo for more pictures of our world.

A beautiful Khmer-style archway.

This ornate archway, found everywhere in Cambodia, marks the entrance to a wat, or temple, or tell you that there is a wat up ahead. The more ornate the designs are signifies that a wat has a lot of well-to-do supporters. How can you miss this one?

These are just some of the sights I saw while on a boat that went around the Chroy Changva Peninsula in Phnom Penh. Chroy Changva is the small island across the Royal Palace (riverside). I pray that the floodwaters didn’t do much damage to these people and their properties.

I saw this sign by the door of a commune training centre in Kampong Thom province in one of my visits there. If I’m not mistaken, the partnership has been on for more than 20 years now with  about 260M euros spent for programs in Cambodia.

Cambodia is a partner country for the German Development Cooperation.The priority areas of cooperation agreed between the two governments are rural development and support for the health system. Cross-cutting tasks include: fostering democracy, civil society, public administration and good governance. (Source)
