  • Fish Price Monitoring in Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo Provinces of Cambodia
    Fish Price Monitoring in Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo Provinces of Cambodia by 1 1 2 Ker Naret , Sem Viryak and Don Griffiths 1. Fishery Officer, Department of Fisheries, and Counterpart of the MRC/DoF/Danida Fisheries Project in Cambodia 2. Chief Technical Advisor, MRC - Rural Extension for Aquaculture Development Project ABSTRACT Fish marketing data are vital for any aquaculture development project because it influences potential supply, demand and distribution channels of fish. The Rural Extension for Aquaculture Development (READ) Cambodian Sub-Component monitored fish prices eight times per month throughout 1999, in representative markets in Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo provinces in Cambodia. A total of 90 fish dealers (30 per province) were also interviewed. Results showed that River Catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus), Snakeheads (Channa spp.) and Walking Catfish (Clarias spp.) were the major cultured fish by weight in all markets on sampling days. The quantities of cultured fish traded in Prey Veng markets was less than for Kandal and Takeo markets. In Kandal 38% of fish traded was cultured. Snakeheads (Channa spp.), Goonch (Bagarius bagarius), Climbing Perch (Anabas testudineus), Catfish (Mystus spp. and Clarias spp.), Silver Barb (Barbodes gonionotus) and Riel (Henicorhynchus spp.) were the major wild fish species found in each province. Wild fish prices were generally highest from June to August and lowest from December to February. Mackerel (Scomber spp.) was the only marine fish species in the markets of each province. There were greater quantities of Mackerel in Kandal and Takeo than in Prey Veng province, and Mackerel was available year round in Kandal market. The main fish supply channels were through Saang district in Kandal province; Angkor Borei, Bourei Cholsar and Kaoh Andaet districts in Takeo province, and Kampong Leav district in Prey Veng province.

  • Second Report on Public Education Forum for the Asia Foundation

The forum is held throughout 24 Cambodian provinces: from the most remote areas of the nation, to the capital city of Phnom Penh. By providing non-formal education on how to effectively teach Democratic Kampuchea (DK) history, the forum makes a positive impact on formal Public Education Forum in Wat Trapeang Kraham education inside Cambodian classrooms. (Red pond), Ratanak Kiri The forum creates a safe space for people of all ages, backgrounds, and statuses to discuss DK history. By allowing both victims and perpetrators to share their experiences and perspectives of the atrocities committed during the Khmer Rouge (KR) period, the forum leads Cambodians to the common ground necessary to finding peace, ensuring reconciliation and building a better future. The forum also encourages direct intergenerational dialogues at home, an important feat at a time when the struggles of contemporary life cause many Cambodian families to sweep their violent past under the rug. Many survivors, haunted by their traumatic pasts, find solace in voicing for the first time the stories that they have carried inside, untold for over thirty years. At one forum in Phnom Penh, a villager, age 67, asked if she could share her story with the children.

It was extraordinarily well organized, totally substantive and obviously beneficial to the Burundian participants. The Cambodian host organizations were appropriately selected and well- prepared to contribute to the study tour objectives. In retrospect, Cambodia was an ideal choice for the study tour site. There are many similarities between the two countries, yet the contrasts enabled the Burundians to place their own society in a better context. Visits to the Genocide Museum and the Killing Fields were stark reminders to the Burundians of the atrocities that occurred in their own country during the 1993-1996 period.
