Regional Development Action Association

Regional Development Action Association Build the happiness , peace and prosperity through education, social service and health care Regional Development Action Association (RDA) was founded by Ven.

Sothea Yon, a Cambodian citizen. Sothea finished his higher education in Thailand and became a lecturer at the Mahachulalongkorn Univerity Ubon Ratchathani. While on a field trip around Cambodia his heart was filled with sadness upon seeing the suffering of his people; people who had no access to medical care or education; people who suffered from domestic violence, and elders without professional care. This affected him so much that he resigned from his position in Thailand, moved back to Cambodia and committed himself to breaking the cycle of poverty through education and youth empowerment. RDA provides education, health, and social services to the poorer communities in Siem Reap Province. With his dedication to bring Cambodia out of poverty through creating a better society, social entrepreneurship is a vital component to bring about these changes. RDA provides youth with platforms for decision making and encouraging their active participation in creating societal change. Being a social entrepreneur means to be a leader, and innovator and someone who wants to create positive social impact.

This family lived in Opheakspea village. My involvement with them and going through their sorrow was the beginning of the concept to build Lotus House. It was less than 12 months after this photo was taken that this lovely lady lost her battle with breast cancer...
Her daughters are doing well, living in SR, one working and the other attending high school..
I'm in regular contact with them and see them every time I'm in SR..
It's good to see them looking happy and settled into life...
When the Women's Health programs start at Lotus House we hope to see less and less suffering through lack of education about the importance of self examination and knowing your body...

TEACHER SPONSORSHIP URGENTLY REQUIRED

After a lengthy meeting with Sothea Yon yesterday discussing everything from Lotus House programs to life in rural Siem Reap, we feel satisfied and very happy with our direction...
I'd just like to share with you a few things that we hit on...
Our main focus was on the teachers at Lotus House and the elderly...
THE TEACHERS...
We need to urgently employ one main English teacher to get things moving. The teachers you see in this photo are volunteer school kids from the local high school who have limited knowledge about teaching English, we are very grateful for their dedication and support but we do need a role model and experienced teacher also.
School starts back on the 15th of this month and we would really love to be able to start our English program at this time or as soon as possible....The other teachers can come as finances allow.
As Lotus House is a vocational training center we would be looking to employ a local teacher out of regular school hours...
This is a cost that we are unable to bare at the moment so we are urgently seeking a sponsor or sponsors who would like to contribute to support the wages of $70 USD per month, this will allow us have a teacher at Lotus House 5 evenings per week.
To help us get things moving at Lotus House please get in touch with us, any amount of sponsorship is very welcomed...

THE ELDERLY
Our focus for the elderly is health!!!... Their health is of the utmost importance to the community as they are really the backbone of the family. I will write a separate post on the role they play in their community shortly. I gain more insight into what life is really like in these rural areas every time I come to Cambodia...
Programs for the elderly will be implemented as soon as possible. I would like to add that the elderly are the caregivers, their focus is to see their grandkids educated...

HEALTH & EDUCATION!!

Thank you for reading this very lengthy post...

Please message me with any enquiries

The Teachers at Lotus House...

These three young people are from the local High School they come to teach English to the kids in their own time...
I love this idea as it helps on a few levels, they learn from teaching the kids and the kids see them as role models...
We still need paid teachers to go to Lotus House.
If you, or you may even know of a school that may be interested in supporting a teacher for Lotus House, please get in touch. It's only $70 per month to do this.
The rewards for everyone concerned are enormously satisfying

Floating school

Last week ago, we RDA, participated the opening the ceremony the officially distributed the floating school to teachers and students at Kampong Kleang village.

This school was initially started by Saw Wat , Reatha and generous sponsors . We are RDA were a little bit this building.

This School helped much the students at floating village, they can learn happily but a problem facing now is no a teacher from educational institute of government. People in this village try the best in management and find the teacher for teaching .

If you have time to visit , don't forget to go there and to meet the students ,share your love to them.
