Our magazine is about you, Cambodian youth, and the things that we think you will find interesting. This issue we are focusing on foreigners because we know that having people from other countries in the Kingdom has an impact on Cambodians, especially the younger generation who has seen foreigners on TV, in movies and listened to them singing since they were babies.

We have had more stories about, and from, students studying abroad and we can hardly count them, but this week for the first time we have a story about youth from other countries coming to study here (page 6). We also have a story about what makes Phnom Penh unique from the other cities in the world (page 10), and a story about far away people and places in our country (page 12), and how much your location really matters to how you view the Kingdom.

We are launching the Lift/TEDx Phnom Penh Essay contest on our website this week as well. We would love to get your input.
