The News Room

The News Room is just a place for us to post current news events in Cambodia.

An example of the concept can be seen at http://www.gondarlink.org.uk/news/default.asp.

Most links will be to news articles.  But, I would also like to include links from youtube for specific news items.

Consider whether people can post comments on this page about some of the articles.

Consider leaving a space at the top of the page for me to draw attention to certain articles or add some of my own commentary.
