SHOULD CHRISTMAS BE ALLOWED TO CELEBRATE IN CAMBODIAN PUBLIC SCHOOLS?

Christmas or Christmas Day is a Christian holiday which is celebrated annually, usually on December 25 by both Christians and non-Christians around the world to remember the birth of Jesus Christ. It is the time for people to share joy, bliss and festivity. Christian religious views were first spread to Cambodia in the 1660s, imparting its values to Cambodian civilization. Nowadays, although the majority of Cambodians are Buddhists, most of them also celebrate Christmas. In recent years, however, there have been arguments about whether Christmas celebration should be allowed in Cambodian public schools. In my opinion, celebrating Christmas in Cambodian public schools because someone or some group finds it enjoyable should not be allowed because it can be carried out in other places; it creates chaos to and pollutes the environment of the schools; and Cambodian public schools are expected to promote Cambodian culture.

The causes, effects and solutions of Pollutions

In accordance with the article "Pollution," it is argued that knowing the sources of pollution is a primary step in finding the solutions. Two types op pollutions, air and water, and the solutions to the problem of pollutions are mentioned in the article. As it is suggested, air pollution is mainly caused by road congestion, smoke from the factories and absence of trees, whereas water pollution is often due to superstitious beliefs, factory-formed effluents, and corroded pipes. As a result of the pollutions, more and more people are getting sick and the environment is becoming harmful to the species on earth. To solve the problems, the government and individuals should work cooperatively. We, as an individual, should cut down the amount of carbon emission from our vehicles and plant more trees, while the government should control the smoke from factories and prohibit some ares for recycling wastes.

My First Short Story

The Luck Brought by Triplets

Written by: NGUON Chhayleang

A few droplets of water left from last night rain sleeping on branches of trees were rolling down gracefully to the red fertile ground and were absorbed abruptly and thirstily as a rainy night was transisting into a hot spring day. The sun was starting to give off light to the day again. A covey of birds were flying here and there across the about-to-turn-green landscape signaling for another great sunny day while the little ants were scuttling away under the mango tree looking for a place to store of their summer supplies. Behind the mango tree stood an old, gloomy and lonely house of a talented herbalist Pitou, a man who left his laboratory in Phnom Penh to find the herbs in the big forest of Mondolkiri province.

Calmness counts!

In order not to show your histrionics, you need to learn to be patient of what you can't do because controlling oneself is the path to his/her success. I was once told that, "The success is the one who can control his/her feeling over a skirmish." For example, you might face a range of problems, big or small, at your working place almost every day, if not every hour. Controlling yourself not to jump into any arguments, therefore, is the best way to help you to have a successful talk with you prospect buyers.
