The promise is an initiative that both inspires and provides leadership for stewardship in the lower Mekong plain of Southeast Asia and beyond. Goal The goal of the Song Saa Reserve, Eco-tourism Park, Banteay Srei environment and social plan is as innovative as it is ambitious. And building on the lessons and successes of Song Saa’s work in the Koh Rong archipelago, and the knowledge and skill of its staff, its aspiration is to create a regional exemplar for restoration and stewardship that reflects the present and future needs of the environment and people of the Banteay Srei area and beyond. ------------ The Song Saa Reserve, Eco-tourism Park, Banteay Srei environment and social plan is divided into four parts. Part 1 sets out the environment and social context of the Song Saa Reserve, Eco-tourism Park, Banteay Srei site, with points of note including: • The loss of the site’s rainforest cover as the predominant landscape change, which has had a significant impact on biodiversity and land use patterns. • A lake and wetland, Trapaing Chamboak, bordering the site is a predominant landscape feature, and provides a range of ecosystem services to the development site. • There are four villages in proximity to the site, with home-based agriculture being the primary economic activity. • There are high levels of poverty in the surrounding villages, which is reflected in high primary school dropout rates, outward migration in search of jobs and indebtedness to credit agencies. • Water quality and quantity and fire management are matters that need to be catered for in the development and management of the site. • The site is in a significant cultural area for the Khmer people, including proximity to the scared mountains of Kulen and the Banteay Srei temple of the Angkor Archaeological Park. Part II provides the project focus portion of the plan and includes: • A framework for approaching environment and social project work on the site, based on the principles of: (a) permaculture, (b) integrated catchment management, (c) the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and (d) ecological restoration. • An outline of a group of strategic opening that could yield support for projects undertaken on the site, including opportunities provided in the arenas of climate change, biodiversity, the sustainable development goals and social enterprise development. • A set of four large-scale projects for the site, which focus on the opportunities identified through the profile work undertaken in Part I, and which seek to bring about the regeneration and restoration of the ecological and social resilience of the site. The projects are: - The Heritage Forest Garden Initiative – which focuses on opportunities for the reforestation of areas of the development site. - The Trapaing Chamboak Heritage Management Plan – this entails a collaborative planning process for the establishment of a long-term management plan for the restoration of the Trapaing Chamboak Lake and its wetland margins. 4 - The Wildways and Flyways Heritage Project – An initiative that establishes a strategy and process for regenerating and restoring the biodiversity of the Banteay Srei site in harmony with other development imperatives. - The Banteay Srei Heritage Hub – A project that endeavours to create a learning and education hub that focuses on archaeological and biodiversity/climate change. • A set of other planning considerations, including monitoring and reporting, corporate alignment and the legal requirements for an environment impact process. Part Ill provides a concept note on the characteristics of the human community that could evolve at the Banteay Srei site and Part IV, the steps to follow in the implementation of the environment and social plan. An appendix summarizing the birds, amphibians, fish, insects and plants observed on the site during surveys completed between November 2016 and January 2017 is included. The species lists highlight the low level of biodiversity on the site, which has accompanied the removal of its original forest cover. 5 1. Introduction This document sets out a plan to promote the regeneration, restoration and resilience of the physical and social environment of a property project site in the Banteay Srei district of Cambodia (henceforth, ‘the site’). The plan draws on the extensive experience of Song Saa staff, professional contributions from the nationally renowned eco-tourism and birding enterprise, the Sam Vesna Centre and the global conservation organisation Wildlife Conservation Society. The result is a plan that is visionary and unique for property development in Cambodia, where care and consideration for the environment and people lies at the centre of the project’s concept. The plan is divided into three parts: Part 1: The environment and social context of the site. Part ll: Project framework and descriptions for undertaking on the site. Part Ill: A Community for Banteay Srei – A Concept Note 6 PART 1 The Environment and Social Profile of the Banteay Srei Site 1.1 Background The Banteay Srei site is located approximately 38 kilometres north of the city of Siem Reap, in the Angkor basin, an area of 2986 km2 in the central Cambodia province of Siem Reap (see Maps 1.1, 1.2 & 1.3). The basin is bordered by the great lake of Tonle Sap1 in the south and the low-slung range of the Phnom Kulen Mountains in the north, the basin rising from 6 amsl—around the shores of the Tonle Sap—to 469 m at the tallest point in the Kulen range. Three small size rivers dissect the basin—the Puok, the Siem Reap and the Rolous—all of which fed into the Tonle Sap. The Banteay Srei (BS) site is located in the catchment of the Siem Reap River. Map 1.1: The Angkor Basin and the Song Saa Reserve, Eco-tourism Park, Banteay Srei Site and Other Significant Features Banteay Srei site The basin landscape is a mosaic of flooded and upland forests, rice fields, scrub land, sites of shifting cultivation, areas of deforestation and urban development, and designated protected areas. The emergence of intensify-style agriculture, including cassava and plantation development, has occurred over the last seven years. Forests within the basin are dominated by deciduous and evergreen species, the latter heavily populated by species of the Dipterocarpus genus2. Rice growing is a dominant agricultural activity, with irrigated and rain fed rice grown beyond the margins of the Tonle Sap Lake. 1 The Tonle Sap is the largest fresh water lake in Southeast Asia and a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

    SIMULATION OF RAINFED RICE YIELDS UNDER CLIMATE CHANGE IN PUOK DISTRICT, SIEM REAP PROVINCE, CAMBODIA Thoeung Puthearum 2nd Oct 2018 Background • In Cambodia, the majority of flooded areas are also experiencing drought in the dry season due to the lack of sufficient irrigation systems. • Puok district is located on lowland, Western part of West Baray and Tonle Sab lake in Siem Reap province of Cambodia. • Total area of the district is 1,279 square kilometer, divided into 16 communes with population of 126,110 forming 22,936 households within which 22,471 (97.97%) involves in agricultural farming. • Rice is cultivated in a vast area of 30,980 ha of the district. At the end of 2007, the total rice cultivated area was up to 26,420 ha within which 23,980 ha is cultivated only once a year in rainy season starting from May due to the lack of water for irrigation. • The other crops grown by the communities in 2007 are maize, cassava, sweet potato, sugar cane and vegetables. 2008 (Field survey, 2009). 2 Study area map and identification of agricultural soil type 3 Rationale and problem statement • Cambodia suffered a prolonged civil wars and peace has just brought to this country from 1993 onwards. It lacks ability to invest in any other resources. • About 70% of the population is farmers occupying 30% of the land along lowland Tonle Sab, Mekong Krom and Basak rivers, which lie from the Northwest to the Southeast. • Flood hitting Cambodia in 2000 was recorded as the worst flood during the last 70 years (NCDM, 2002).

  • Chapter 5. Groundwater Simulation
    Chapter 5. Groundwater Simulation The Preparatory Study on The Siem Reap Water Supply Expansion Project Chapter 5. Groundwater Simulation Daily water demand in Siem Reap has been estimated at a maximum of 86,300 m3/day in 2030. This amount is far more than the existing water supply capacity of SRWSA. Therefore, the existing water supply system has to be expanded. When the expansion plan is formulated, groundwater is considered as one of the options for water source. Simply considering from the groundwater recharge amount of 516,000 m3/day, that is about six times the estimated water demand. Hence, in case of available groundwater development amount evaluation from the viewpoint of balance between withdrawal and recharge, the value of 516,000 m3/day can be taken as the potential amount for groundwater development. However, not only the balance between groundwater recharge and withdrawal, but also the effect of groundwater development such as increasing of pumping volume in the future and selection of development areas has to be taken into consideration. In Siem Reap the most important effect from groundwater development is the groundwater level drawdown, because the groundwater drawdown can cause land subsidence. As mentioned in Chapter 4, 4-5-3 Summary of Groundwater Recharge Calculation, because Siem Reap lacks a deep and highly permeable aquifer, if all the recharge amount of 516,000m3/day were used for water supply, the groundwater level will fall to 5 m below the ground surface in the whole Siem Reap area. The actual water demand is about one sixth of the recharge amount.

This trend has been accelerated through modern media, especially visual media such as TV, films, DVDs and the internet with highly developed technologies and its world-wide distributions and flows. It provides us with a variety of ways to reconstruct, present and represent the past and heritage with particular meanings, especially as World Heritage Sites. The media-production of World Heritage Sites has no doubt contributed to the increase in the interest and the number of tourists to visit and “gaze” real and reconstructed World Heritage Sites simultaneously.

  • Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park the Complete Temple Guide
    Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park The Complete Temple Guide 1 The Temples of Angkor Ak Yom The earliest elements of this small brick and sandstone temple date from the pre-Angkorian 8th century. Scholars believe that the inscriptions indicate that the temple is dedicated to the Hindu 'god of the depths'. This is the earliest known example of the architectural design of the 'temple-mountain', which was to become the primary design for many of the Angkorian period temples including Angkor Wat. The temple is in a very poor condition. Angkor Thom Angkor Thom ("Great City") was the last and most enduring capital city of the Khmer empire. It was established in the late 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. The walled and moated royal city covers an area of 9 km², within which are located several monuments from earlier eras as well as those established by Jayavarman and his successors. At the centre of the city is Jayavarman's state temple, the Bayon, with the other major sites clustered around the Victory Square immediately to the north. Angkor Thom was established as the capital of Jayavarman VII's empire, and was the centre of his massive building programme. One inscription found in the city refers to Jayavarman as the groom and the city as his bride. Angkor Thom is accessible through 5 gates, one for each cardinal point, and the victory gate leading to the Royal Palace area. Angkor Wat Angkor Wat ("City of Temples"), the largest religious monument in the world, is a masterpiece of ancient architecture. The temple was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and eventual mausoleum.
