When I learn in Liger school the thing that I notice that it need to change in Cambodia is stop illegal thing like logging the trees and take people land for company. The solution that I think of is teach people about the benefit of the forest and make more hard law for the people who logging. Also if the company who go to take the people land for plant the thing we can put him in the jail. Also we can take all his money to the gavorment to help the people that poor in Cambodia. Also I have been talk to my brother that don’d throw the rubbish away. But sometimes he still throw away and most of the time he not throw the rubbish a way. Also I talk to him that if all the people in Cambodia throw the rubbish away and the rubbish flying around do you feel good or not. Also in Liger I have one exploration that went to Kompong Chhnang province to teach the people about First Aid to save them when they have some small problem with their health like get small cut and ankle sprain. Also I change Cambodia by another exploration call Renewable Energy. In this class we write a proposal ask for money to help the people in HAP and Cam Kids school to build biodigesters. For one year now it still working and the people that live in HAP and the people that learn in Cam Kids are happy so much when they get the biodigesters. All this thing that I have change Cambodia and I want to make Cambodia change in the future.
Animal Guide of Cambodia Book Launch
After a full an Exploration of working on researching the information of different species of animal in Cambodia. Moreover, we’ve been continuing this research in Essential which allowed us to edit work and wrote the description of those animals. So for nearly a year or so, we finally published the book.
We went to Meta House because we had published The Illustrated Guide to Wildlife of Cambodia. It was a celebration of a project that took over two years to complete. We revealed our books and displayed over 300 of our original watercolor paintings. We sold many of each and all the money went to printing and distributing the books for government schools all around Cambodia. We believe these important books will inspire other kids in Cambodia to protect their native wildlife.

My Weekly Journal_ Khmer Performance
This is the Weekly Journal that I write about Khmer Performance about Jayavarman VII:
On Sunday night we went to Diamond Island to watch the Khmer performance about King 7. When we arrived there we stopped outside to eat dinner. During dinner I saw the concert about football English Premier League. Then when we ate our dinner finished we went into the Diamond Island theater and we started to go in the place that the people were performing. When we were in there they started to say about King 7 and about Khmer Empire. Then they started to close the light and they started to perform to us and other audience. When they started they had the Champa people and Khmer people and they fought together to get the places. Some spots they had some comedy and some were sad. When King 7 went to fight with Champa they had one person that betrayed to King 7 and he wanted to become the king. Then they killed the people in Angkor that didn’t want him to become the king. Then King 7 he came back from fighting and his father died. Then the Champa people came again and then they got Khmer Empire. Then King 7 he talked to men and women sincerely to Khmer so they practiced with each other. Then King 7 started to fight Champa people back and King 7 he won the fight with Champa and he got Khmer Empire back. Then when the performance finished we came out and went on the bus. Then the sky started to rain and the road had a lot of water. When we arrived at Liger we went up to the bed and slept.

Essential Questions:
- How will jobs that help Cambodia look different in the future?
- What motivates people to choose the job they do?
Description:
During the round four exploration we learned about Future Jobs. In Future Jobs we had to develop the presentation questions (ask more questions). We asked more questions because in our Exploration we had a lot of trips that taught us about the jobs in the real life. After that we learned about Nanotechnology, Water crisis and Alternative fuels. Nanotechnology is smaller than atoms. One thing we learned was that it is waterproof and can go underground without breaking. In Water crisis topic we learned that 70% of the Earth is seawater and 30% is land. But just 3% is good water. 884 million people don’t have good water and nearly 1,000,000,000 don’t have water. The last topic was Alternative fuel. We noticed that the gas can live 60 years, oil can live 60 years and coal can live 1000 years. Last we prepared for our job shadow on the next day. Job shadow means to go to the real place of work to do the job with the people that are in the job that helps Cambodia a lot. All of us went to different places with our partner. For example, some of us went to World Vision and some went to Northbridge International School.
