They come up with different ideas about skills and education’s needs from each group; however, their answers were included here. “We think they would need foreign languages which are important to the world and work such English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, Thai, and Khmer language. Furthermore, the computer skills are important for employment as they use technology” one of groups presented. Another group shared what they had additionally. “We think Siem Reap is favorite place for tourists to come and the tour guide career is more popular for local people so tour guide is skill they need to study”.

One student, Chanon expresses his feeling about computer program at Salariin Kampuchea. “My name is Chanon. Why I study computer because when I can use a computer well I can find a good job. When I find a good job I will have a lot of money, I are able to support my family and support poor children in my community. It is also a favorite subject too and the school here is very nice place and has friendly teachers. When I am free, I like to play game, watch video on YouTube while I am study internet and social media in my computer lesson. So computer is very important for my future. Thanks very to give me this opportunity and I hope the school still support next generation”.
