Quotable

"Learning Chinese, I have a lot of job opportunities because there are a lot of Chinese companies doing businesses in Cambodia. All the teachers are from China. They are very easy to get along with, and the ways they teach are diverse, so I am very happy to learn here. After graduation, I want to study more in China and on my return be an interpreter."
