Phnom Penh.....21 June-23 June 2013


  • I went to Phnom Penh recently to attend a program organised by the MyAlumni Consortium Global Reach. Ministry of Education.
  • An invitation was sent to me and managed to get approval from UUM's top management.
  • I booked a hotel as suggested by the organising committee.
  • There were representatives from all public and private higher education institutions (HEI)
  • The program enabled to gather some alumni from these HEI.
  • The coffee table book also launched that night too. And, a wonderful dinner also organised.
  • I felt so lucky as I managed to meet UUM alumni during the event.
  • I also able to get to know more closely the officers and directors of alumni in HEI.
  • They seemed to be very friendly too.
  • I also went for shopping at a very well-known shopping spot, the Central Market.
  • So many interesting goods sold there.
  • The pictures below were taken during my visit there.
