This is a website I did for national history day. The website is on my innovation of the Air Purifier.

According to "Cambodia - Funding law approved for hydropower dams" by Vern Weitzel, "Cambodia remains starved for power and must import most of its electricity from Vietnam and Thailand"

According to "Sustainable Cambodia", their goals for Cambodia is to get: 

• "Fresh Drinking Water Wells
• Biosand Water Filters
• Rainwater Harvesting
• Vegetable Gardens & Irrigation
• Pass-On Farm Animal Program
• Micro-Business & Crop Micro-loans
• Beekeeping
• Village Healthcare Program
• Sylvia Lasky Memorial School (300+ grade-school students)
• Kravanh Bright Futures School (240+ grade-school students)
• University Scholarships (for grade-school graduates)
• Village Preschools
• Adult Literacy
• Mobile Libraries
• Vocational Education"

This list makes me feel sad because Cambodians living in Cambodia don't have freshwater that's accessible compared to us. Also in that list, is water filtering, so even if they have access to water, the water isn't even safe to drink and might even cause a deadly illness or disease. This list is very long, but has many ways to think of resourceable ways to keep things clean with a small price. From my previous post about children works picking up recyclables, if these volunteers teach  them about filtering and how to make them, they can affoard to get water no matter what. One thing I just do not agree with, is the scholarships, mainly because half the population in Cambodia aren't in school, so the money should be put more into get teachers.

According to "Brookline Cambodia Partnership", Education is the key to bringing about significant and lasting change and progress to the people of Cambodia."

According to "Brookline High Teacher Spur Drive to Build Cambodian Schools" by By Neal Simpson/staff writer

• "Staff and students at Brookline High School are helping to build a new school in Cambodia"
• "Brookline Cambodia Partnership to raise about $24,000 to help fund
  construction of an elementary school in a rural area of nation of about
  14.4 million people."
• "Cambodia is roughly the size of Oklahoma"
• "educational opportunities are limited"
• "more than half the population of nearly 14.5 million are under age 21"

Cambodia is in need of help with, not only the works and jobs, but also the education. From my previous and past posts, children in Cambodia are forced to do labor to make money for their family to live and because teachers need to be paid also to teach, the kids dont have a oppurtunity to go to school. Their aren't many school that are free left in Cambodia, so seeing people trying their best to give Cambodia an oppurtunity makes me happy because it's my family's native country and I love seeing all the support people give them.

According to 'Help The Cambodian Children', 17% of Cambodian children aged between 10 and 14 years are in full time employment to support themselves and their families.

According to 'Help the Cambodian Children' and 'Oxfam International'

• "Children in Cambodia are suffering quietly"
• "nearly two thirds of the planet struggling to survive on less than $2 a day'
• Billions have been poured into the country since 1980. However, most of it have ended up in the pockets of corrupt officials.
• "we are unable to accept such donations (such as childrens clothes, toys, shoes etc.) due to Cambodian custom tariffs."

There are many people donating to Cambodia because it is such in a poor, ruined state. As stated aboves, the country is under a corrupted government who seems to care more about tourist money than their own people. Also because the Cambodia government wants more money, they have such high tariffs that it would just be better to send money and buy the items from there but it seems like a waste doing that.

 According to 'Teaching English in Cambodia', "Some of the large private universities such as Pannasastra and University of Cambodia hire foreign lecturers for very good money."

According to 'Cambodian Schools', "The students pay almost three dollars to the teachers. But I cannot say whether it is fair or not. Because the teachers, they need the
money to live."

• "Many of the troubles with Cambodia's education system -- namely underpaid, under-trained teachers and a lack of materials"
• "Many have no walls at all and are open to the environment."
• "Children very often do not have chairs or desks; they sit on the
  ground."
• "Rooms are very overcrowded."
• "A small room often can hold 50-80
  students for one teacher."

Not only is the poverty in Cambodia, hurting how people live, they are also hurting the children. usually people would say that the children are the future but what future will they have if they aren't educated to make a difference. Usually when someone grows up in poverty, they still have a chance at education in America and would use that experience to make a difference but these children in Cambodia don't even have a chance to give back because they are always having to worry about how they will make it the next day.

 According to 'Angkor Wat Tour Guide', "many children unable to receive basic school supplies due to a lack of government funding."

According to 'Cambodia Cultural Profile', "1975 the Khmer Rouge abolished education, systematically destroying
teaching materials, textbooks and publishing houses. Schools and
universities were closed and their buildings put to other uses." 

• "1979 it had to completely reconstruct the entire education system."
• "an acute shortage of qualified teaching staff"
• "poor morale due to low salary levels and lack of suitable teaching material"
• "adult literacy rates were estimated at 76.25% for men and 45.98% for women."

People in cambodia doesn't even have a chance to get a good job because of the education system now. Their aren't enough teacher to even teach the adults because  of the low rate of educated adults. Only 76% of men can read in cambodian, and with that chance, they would most likely teach themselves then move to America for a better education and to start a new life and a family there. Not only are their not enough of teachers, but their isn't enough of books or just teaching materials for everyone in the class to read off. They wouldn't even have books that they can take home to do homework with.

 According to "Cambodia e-gov", "Cambodia lacked significant industrial development, with most of the labor engaged in agriculture".  This is one of the reasons why the government is kicking out residence in areas around Phnom Penh to make room for tourist.

According to the article "Cambodia: Poverty on Smokey Mountain" by John Brown, he has stated, "Stung Meanchey opened more than 15 years ago to serve as the city dump and today some 2000 registered workers, including 600 children, work at the site sifting through roughly 700 tons of waste that arrives each day."

• "35% of Cambodia’s population of around 14 million exists on less than $.50 USD per day"
• "12 hours per day scavenging through this sea of waste may earn as much as 10,000 riels, or the equivalent of $2.50 USD"
• "Heavy air polluted by the constant smolder that generates toxic byproducts"
• "Workers are seen coughing or sneezing, and most of the youngest children have runny noses, inflamed throats, and watering eyes" (John Brown)

 According to Nigel Dickinson, these workers work for 24 hours a day, which means no rest at all.Not only are children working in these sites but also "Waste scavengers have dramatically shortened life expectancies and many have poor health".These kids are forced to work in order to survive. They don't think about the damage that work does because unlike us, they don't have time to think about the future and if they did, it would seem like a dark future is ahead waiting for them. Their is never time for them to breathe because while they are taking a break, those other 100 people are finding the recyclables that you would be holding right now. Even if it means working in a location that can easily kill you, you have to think about the other people who are depending on your earnings. 

"families depend upon even the youngest worker’s incremental income" (John Brown)

According to the article Cambodia's Scavengers Face Eviction by Claire Truscott, "Scavenging for bits of plastic, metal and glass that earn them an average of $10 a month". 

I have done research on Cambodia and the causes of why Cambodia is going through a economial depression or
in other words, poverty.

The first couple reason aren't surprising because this how things are across the world too.

• Government: they are kicking residents off their own land to make room for their own benefits.
  

• Government's Benefits: Shopping centers, Luxury apartment, Office space, and more. (LICADHO)

According to LAND GRABBING & POVERTY IN CAMBODIA: THE MYTH OF DEVELOPMENT by LICADHO,

• "In the capital, Phnom Penh, 133,000 people – more than 10% of its population – are
  believed to have been evicted since 1990."

• "In 2008, according to Amnesty International, a further 150,000 Cambodians were at risk of forced relocation nationwide"

• "As of 2004, it was estimated that 20-30% of landowners held 70% of the country’s land, while the poorest 40% occupied only 10%; in the countryside, 45% of families were landless or near landless"

 Using this evidence, not only are people in Cambodia is suffering through poverty, but they also have to deal with the government. The government is wasting money to get rid of people out of their homes to just build new places that "foreigners" or "rich people" can afford to go or live in. According to the article, Cambodia's Scavengers Face Eviction, not only are they evitcing people, but they are also getting rid of the #1 spot where these "poor" people get their money, their survival and their job.

During my research i've found that in Cambodia, 70% of the people there live in ruined houses or incomplete houses. They are people who don't take money advantage because most of them lives on $1-2 a day which is is about a bottle of soda here. Not only are the people there are poor and don't have a lot, most of the kids there can't even finish school cause they can't complete their education. The government kicks people off the land just to make room for new building that they could be spending on the citizens.

What I want to find out next is what is the real reason people are in poverty there. Is it because their isn't enough imports and exports, or is it because of the government.

Commune Poverty Rates Compared with the National Level Poverty Rate

According to WFP VAM, from 1998, about 66% of Cambodia is below the ‘national level poverty rate.' The dark redish area is where most of the poverty is at and looking at this map, most of the poverty is in Phnom Penh where is where 'Smokey Mountain' located

In cambodia, there is poverty in almost step you take. There is no escape out of the poverty in cambodia.

 Some issues that causes poverty are 

• the government
• the people
• the environment
• the money
• the support

According to Business For Millennium Development , in 2009, “5.6 million or 40% of Cambodians live below the national poverty line”, but “over 70% of urban dwellers live in slums.” This evidence shows that the poverty rate decreased from 1999 but 70% lives in slums or also known as the ghettos or just like dangerous or broken down neighborhoods. From these 2 statistics, the poverty rate may decrease but we can and cannot assume the people who escaped the poverty rate are barely on the line of poverty.

Poverty in Cambodia seems like its with everyone. No one can seem to get rid of the chains that are attached to them and must keep doing what they do to survive this place they call their 'homeland'.

Today i went to the polling spot at 12th and Bigler with Caroline and Robbie Glynn. When we walked in there, most of the people watching the polls were elders and so we walked to one table. When we asked this lady can we interview her about election day, she said no in a semi strong way which made us more nervous. So then we went to another man, Mike Stuhl, and he was kind enough to answer our questions. He said he worked the election polls last year and compared to today, it was much much slower and last year was super busy. He said the best part is being the last one to vote before going home and the worst was dealing with people. After that we left and because of the people there, we were nervous to take a picture of the polling booth so we took a picture of the fliers that was outside of it

I think i never want to do this again because the lady who said no, said it like we were annoying and i didn't like the way she acted. Other than that, the polls were really slow and not much people knew what were the elections were unless they were in politics. I don't think i saw anyone.

In the chapter "Notes" i thought it was really sad. Norman hunged himself and i thought it was really depressing because everyone would have a time they thought about suicide but never tried. It was really depressing becaue it acutlaly happened. The other thing is that i hate the sight of killing and reading about killiing so i only read half way. Their was also guilt at the end which was really depressing. Overall this chapter was depressing and i dont think i want to read this chapter again since it made me depressed.

In the chapter "Style" i thought it was really connected to this game i played name Final Fantasy 10. In FF10, Yuna, a summoner, would dance at a spot where people died and it was something to guide souls to a better place. When i read this chapter it reminded me of Yuna and because of that game, i understood that the girl in style was dancing for her family and the people that died, somewhat like guiding them to a better place. At the end i thought it was really nice when Henry told Azar to dance right because it was somewhat of an insult to dance it wrong and make fun of it

I thought the end of "style" was really something important because I understand what the little girl was doing, when she was dancing when her family died. I think that it related to what I know, so it got me really interested into the story more. When Henry told him to dance right, i could feel he knew what the little girl was doing and knew that Azar was somewhat disrepecting it, so it might be a ritual.

I thought the "friends" chapter was kind of sweet but really such a bad decision because saying that you would kill one another if they were in a wheelchair situation is pretty tough. Like you dont realize how good life is and how much you want to keep you life until your in a situation that depends on life or death, so i thought this chapter was really good but the decision was bad. I also thought Dave was a good friend for breaking that contract to give his friend his wish and also to keep his friend close and with him. I think this chapter teaches a really good lesson like don't make a decision unless you really think about it and their are some friendships that you have to break contracts and deal off to keep that friendship.

Today i've read "The Things They Carried". I thought it was very interesting at the chapter love. Like before it, Jimmy Cross blamed himself for his friend Lavendar's death, so later, he started this fire and threw a picture of Martha's volleyball picture into it. Then years later in the chapter called "Love" it was somewhat of a sweet yet not so sweet ending. Like Jimmy's friend who went to Vietnam with him, came to visit him and they started talking about the days back when they were in Vietnam. Then later they reveil that Jimmy had the same picture he threw in the fire but he met Martha at a reunion after he got back from Vietnam and he says that he's still in love with her.

When I entered this year, everything was different than what I was used to. It felt like I was being treated as an equal for once because now I could be in a regular English class. I got treated equally in class and on my work. Thanks to Mr. Block, I’ve realized how much I can improve in such a short time. Even though everything was hard, the work we did taught me how to put my own perspective and cultural influence into my work.

What do sports teams mean to the identity of a city?

Sports teams give the city an image, because people loves sports, so when they think to go on a visit, they would try to visit a place that has a good rep which are created from mainly sports teams.

Write a short non-fiction piece about a time when a sports team meant something to you.
