I was born in Sophy village in 1981. After I finished primary school, I was made a Buddhist monk and lived in a Buddhist monastery for my education (Life & Buddhism, Dharmas and Pali) during 8 years. Thanks to the sponsorship I received from my sponsors in Germany, Canada, Australia and USA, I could attend Private Institute to study German, English and Spanish.

Due to all the knowledge I acquired, I get job as English teacher and became a tour guide licensed by Cambodian Ministry of Tourism on 29th December 2008. Currently I work on contract for www.indochina-services.com. Then I realized that local Cambodian young people are profiting from the knowledge of foreign languages by getting jobs in the tourist industry or by continuing their studies.

In the past, due to the repression carried out by the Khmer Rouge, a lot of population in Cambodia was forced to leave the cities and move to the countryside. As a result, the new generations found it very difficult to study as resources were very limited. Nowadays, the government is making great efforts to change this situation, but extra help in really needed to speed up this process.

My job gives me great opportunity to know a lot of people and become friends around the world and with my social experience, I thought that it should be possible to create programs promoting the education of young people and children in my village and other rural areas so that they could have a chance like me to benefit from, and keep up with current development. This is why I created HVTO in 28th August 2008.
