After a phone discussion with a fellow member of this alumni, I dug up my
inbox from last year and found that Leang Y has agreed to coordinate this
next meeting. Thanks, Leang Y for stepping up to the plate.
Please pick the date and send out the notice. This Jan 22nd is no good
since it is too close, and according to my friend it happens to fall on a
Chinese new year. Below is the list of skype ids and other info that I

Happy new year everyone,
First my apology for not following through our original plan for the 3rd
meeting on Jan 22, 2012, as Bun Meng rightly noticed. Désolé mes amis, I
screwed up L
Considering this initial date is just 2 days away to effectively organize
and get confirmation for the meeting, I am suggesting we do it one the week
later, i.e. Jan 29 2012 8pm Phnom Penh time.
Please send in your skype id, and wait for the skype call from me at that
date.
Thanks.

Thanks Donn for an elaborate trip report. The tech presentation at ITC was
a success; I was there. The students stayed hooked until the end, and then
surrounded Donn to ask intelligent questions. I am very proud of them.
Speaking about our own trip to Siemreap and Phnom Penh, we were less than
fortunate: had to visit the hospitals in Siemreap and in Phnom Penh, until
the last day. In between those days at the hospitals, we had chance to see
Angkor Wat (3h reading the bas relief in the inner corridor), the obligatory
Bayon, claimed Baphoun, and then went on 'sthe disaster trip to Phnom
Koulen. My wife asthma worsened from there.
In Phnom Penh I had a chance to see ITC, the town, and Koh Pich pseudo
island. I had a chance to see Kein Svay where I foolishly ate the stuffed
frogs. I paid very dearly for their revenge: 24 h in emergency room.
Anyway, I have no regret for taking this trip, will definitely be wiser of
what to eat in the next trips.
Regards to all.
PS: do we want to have the 3rd phone/skype meeting for this 1st quarter of
2012.
Dave.

Subject: A Trip Report
Dear All,
Have a prosperous New Year!
Davouth and his wife and I had dinner together at the Koulen II buffet in
Siemreap on December 12. It was a good place to watch folk dances as we used
to see in the 60's, and they were good. Um Mongkol was on a trip to Burma so
we did not meet.
My presentation at ITC was ok I guess. I realized that my paper was too long
so I had to skip a lot even if it took a little over three hours. But at
least the audience learned of basic ideas in the design of electrical
systems for buildings and industrial plants, and the code applied to the
design. I provided those young engineers two important files that I used in
my career: a procedure for electrical design and a self taught type of
training book on protective relaying.
I'd like to thank Davouth for your presence at the presentation. I hope late
this year you will share your experience in your field of work at ITC.
I traveled to Bokor, Kep, and Kampot with a group of NGO employees. I was
invited to join the trip by my nephew, the president of this group. This is
a group funded by the Swedish governent to promote some kind of civic works.
The road to Bokor was well designed and built. It looked like any country
road in the US. A large casino compplex was buing built, and a five star
hotel just had the foundation done. I met an ITC grad who said she worked on
the design of the last piece of road to the casino. But, as you know, Bokor
Mountain has been leased for 99 years to, you know, Sok Kong, the powerful
Sokimex owner. As soon as the casino is opened, I believe they will charge
access fees.
At Kep one of the NGO employees brought out his keyboard and many employees
started to sing and a little dance too. Soon a captain in tha army and a
police leutenant and a sergent arrived to check on our group. My nephew
explained to them on who we were. I told them that I was only a traveler. I
learned later that all this NGO employees were college graduates, including
one from Sambath's home town, the University of Svay Rieng. One of the three
van drivers who took us there told me that his full time job was a teacher
in Khmer literature at Lycee Yukonthor. He graduated from the faculte des
lettres at Royal University of Phnom Penh in 1995, my nephew's classmate.
Driving a van for tourists was his part time job, he said, to make up for
the low paying job as a high school teacher.
In Kampot, while the NGO members were having their meetings, the three van
drivers and I went to Tuk Chhoo to visit the hydropower dam. There are
actually three dams, one is in operation and the two others upstream are
being completed. The lower one, in operation since December, generates 43
MegaWatts. The two other ones will bein operation soon,with a total power of
185 to 191 MW. There are two grid lines going out of there,a 230KV line and
a 22KV line for provincial consumption.
Looking at the power dam one thought came to my mind. If Cambodia did not
have that war in 1970 perhpas our ITSAKS graduates in Hydro, Construction,
and Electro could have designed and built such an infrastructure by
ourselves. We might have had to order turbines from somwhere but we could
have designed not just the hydro plant but the transmission lines and
substations by ourselves.
I need to close this message for now. I will write on my trip to the North
East later, with my observations on the rubber plantations at "the
concessions", and the great potential for several hundred Megawatts of wind
power in Mundulkiri.
