Water is LIFE: A water well project in Spok Reach...

Water is LIFE: A water well project in Spok Reach...

Water is more useful than gold...

When we visited the village of Spok Reach, Kampong Chhnang, after our International Conference on Cambodia Science of Success in Phnom Penh, many villagers were seeking help to have water wells drilled inside their land. The wells can be publicly shared.

My colleagues  and I (led by Chief Dwaine Perry of Ramapough Lunaape Nation) are studying for possible places inside the above village to have some wells drilled for public use. A basic water well with electric water pump can cost around $250.00 each, however a water tower project that can feed up to 20 households or more can cost between 3,000 to 3,500 US dollars.

I will share with you more about the project.

Thank you!

On April 15, 2016 the temperature in Cambodia climbed up to more than 108 degrees. 
The highest and hottest ever! Most wells dried out and water has become Life! No water, No life!





Sopheak Nop does not have a well on his property and needs to buy or beg water from his neighbors. 

Chief Dwaine Perry of New York's Ramapough Lunaape Nation, Jeremy Rayzor of Montana and Neang Kim Chhim Visited the Village of Spok Reach, Kampong Chhnang to examine a well which was almost completely dried out!

Scorching heat of more than 108 degrees caused people to seek for some shades. Krama or Khmer Scarfs were useful. Chief Perry and Jeremy soaked them with cold water to help cool down their head and body.
