Help the Cambodian Children.

Dear friends,

I just want you all to know that I'll be visiting Cambodia next month. My destinations are Siem Reap and Phnom Penh.

I have arranged my schedule to visit the most popular tourist attraction in both location such as Angkor Wat and Killing Field, but I will be doing something different that might give me mixed reactions, positive and negative.

I fully understand the argument of “Children Are Not Tourist Attraction” but it is not in my intention to that 'attraction'. I just want to contribute something to the children, and you can too.

I will be visiting the orphanage in Siam Reap. I already have about 3kg of stationery like ruler, erasers, paper clips, colorful sticky notes, pencils, pens and those small-small things that will help the children in their education development, but I can take about 5kg more.

If you would like to donate new and old English story books or small-small things (writing pens and markers, staplers, staples, sticky tape or even variety of glue including super glue), please send me a message. Important point, make sure everything are clean and in good condition, certainly would not want to pass items that are not clean and in bad condition..after all, they are for beautiful little children.

All donations please send to this address (Last donation will be 17 February. I am leaving on 20th February) :

Mariah Doksil
The Borneo Post
5th Floor Wisma KTS
P.O. Box 14210,
88848 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

Thank you very much. My email: ladymariah@gmail.com

P/S: I might be teaching the children Sumazau and Joget as well but depending on the situation la. If they don't allow me to interact with the children, I will give all the donations to any collection centre.

LM the Traveler said...

hi, anggerik desa... thanks sebab sudi contribute. kalau 4kg mungkin dah banyak tu tp u hantar je sebab i plan nak beli extra luggage kalau donation bertambah. so far memang ramai yg nak contribute dan dah ada beberapa yang dah postkan stationary. kira banyak jugak la, so i akan beli beberapa set tooth brush and tooth paste.

Hai Lady Mariah.. dah berapa kg ni ye?

Sangat simpati dengan semua kanak-kanak di sana.

LM the Traveler said...

hi, dekdaa.
kalau u kirim di bawah 2kg macam tu i rasa masih boleh squeeze sebab i rasa mcm nak topup luggage...

dekdaa said...

Oh really.. okeh.. rasanya macam berminat nak bg some stationery.. walaupun sedikit tapi bermakna utk budak-budak tu. Apa2 nanti saya inform mariah ASAP ok? ;-)

LM the Traveler said...

Tak kisah banyak atau sedikit, yg penting ikhlas. Lagipun saya cuma orang tengah untuk menyampaikan...
