a.Based on your experience in the many activities we organised in Cambodia, what would be a highlight(s) for you? Why? Please elaborate.
Im really appreciative for all the stuff that you (Mr Ben and Ms Lai) have organized for us, as we all know that planning for such a huge group of people isn’t that easy. Many things have to be taken into consideration.
The most significant activities would definitely be house building and soap distribution. Having spent 3days working as a team to get the house done meant a lot because we put in a lot of effort and not forgetting what we learnt on the way. How patient the carpenters were teaching us step by step since day 1 even thou they may have got it done sooner without our help. Sitting on a lorry with dust like that makes it even more unforgettable. The soap distribution was a great experience because getting to visit the villagers allowed me to see for myself their way of life and living conditions. Well they say seeing is believing and that’s definitely true in this case! How friendly they are towards us even thou we are complete strangers.
b. Were there learning points during your trip? What have you learnt? About yourself, your fellow expedition mate, Cambodia, orphans, etc.
In the beginning everyone stuck to their friends as we have not really gotten to know one another but as the trip progresses on we bonded more. I guess being away from home means we gotta rely on one another for support and love. I really enjoyed the company there everyone was easy to get along with.
The orphans are really just like regular kids. They seem contented with whatever they have, even the villagers when we did soap distribution. Family also seems to be their top priority.
c. The theme of this expedition was 'Challenge your perspectives". Did this happen? Did you have a new insight? Or do you now have a new perspective?
YUP! Sure did. Gotten to know more about Cambodia way of life something that you cant really grasp when you just read it off the internet or from books, having to experience it first hand was amazing. The people, the culture everything really!!!
d. Call to action. Do you feel you have contributed at the expedition? Would there be future expeditions for you? What are your plans (related to community service). What does the future hold for you?
HAHA! I think I did? Even thou it may be just a really small part. I would LOVE to do something like this again if given the opportunity. Perhaps I wont be the one leading the group just yet I need to gain more experience before being able to lead a team there on my own. Should opportunity arises I would take it and go for another expedition should time permits.

Based on your experience in the many activities we organised in Cambodia, what would be a highlight(s) for you? Why? Please elaborate.
The house building was an highlight. Through the hard work contributed by everyone, the structure that was there began to develop into a proper house, first with the flooring done, followed by walls and mounting of walls. It sounds simple, but i think it is the combined effort that makes the house stand in the village housing one lady now. That's a major sense of satisfaction, from nothing to something.
Were there learning points during your trip? What have you learnt? About yourself, your fellow expedition mate, Cambodia, orphans, etc.
I think we should learn to be easily contented and smile more. The orphans and adults in Hope Village easily smile and takes life simply. In Singapore, i am sure our living conditions, meals and necessities we have are much better than theirs. So, learn to smile more. Smiles will brighten people's day up.
Call to action. Do you feel you have contributed at the expedition? Would there be future expeditions for you? What are your plans (related to community service). What does the future hold for you?
I feel that I've contributed to this expedition, all the members in the team of 20 which went contributed. I dont mind going for another expedition, but most preferable at another location, so that i can understand more about the living conditions of another third world country. If i can, i hope i would be able to lead another group, if not bring my friends over to hope village to help them out in whatever we can. You might not have the ability to change the world, but your small difference can change someone's world.

Hui Wen is gonna REFLECT!
Based on your experience in the many activities we organised in Cambodia, what would be a highlight(s) for you? Why? Please elaborate.
The highlight would definitely be the soap distribution. During the distribution, walking around the village down to so many households, I got to see how different Cambodians are from us. Although all the households were very different, the number of people living in a house, the animals they rear, the things they do for a living, etc. But they all had one thing in common, they were all very welcoming and generous with whatever they have. Honestly, even though I wasn't very keen on eating with them and sitting down with them (because I just wanted to get it done and over with), I felt quite heartwarming when I hear that Narim translated that the villagers want us to sit down with them. When and where in Singapore do you get strangers inviting you into their house?
Were there learning points during your trip? What have you learnt? About yourself, your fellow expedition mate, Cambodia, orphans, etc.
I actually learnt so so much, in fact more than I expected. As mentioned, I learnt how different Cambodians are from us Singaporeans and we should actually be more like them, genuine, friendly and trust others without putting up a wall of guard.
I also learnt from the children in Hope Village that you can be genuinely happy and that because they are so true and innocent when they interacted with us that their happiness is actually contagious! Every single one of us has a smile on our face when we met the kids after our house building day, no matter how tired we are. They really cheered us up and brought our morales up every time we met. I thought that was plain amazing because we supposedly came to help them out with Excel and all, and have fun with them, but they were the ones that had an effect on us in return.
Lastly, my own expedition mates actually made me learn one very important point. When you are out, far away from your own family, your friends are very important. We started out as strangers but ended up looking out for each other, watching each other's back and taking care of each other. Maybe we caught all the niceness from the locals =)
Cheers,
Hui Wen

Hanna's Reflections...
a. Based on your experience in the many activities we organised in Cambodia, what would be a highlight(s) for you? Why? Please elaborate.
What stays fresh as a memory for me is the house building. That was my very first time to build a house. To my surprise, the carpenters said that the house is going to stand still for at least 10 years. When I heard that, I felt a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. Although what I did was just very simple things like cleaning the bamboo, nailing and arranging the palm leaves for the walls, somehow I simply felt extremely happy, especially when I saw the built house after 3 days of work.
Actually at first, I was not that excited as it was not an easy job. During the bamboo cleaning, we had to sit under the sun and patiently clean the long bamboo. But, everybody was happily doing it, thus I was also motivated to do my best. During the nailing for the floor, when I got too excited, the hammer knocked on my hands several times. And, it took me about 3 minutes for one nail, whereas the carpenters could do it in less than 1 minute. But, the carpenters were happily guiding us instead of grumbling that we did it so slowly.
Through this house building activity, I realized how important good teamwork is. We were supposed to go to the building site for 4 days, but because we worked happily and efficiently together as a team, we could finished it in 3 days.
The house building is beneficial for me as it is a valueable experience and learning.
Another highlight for me is the cultural village visit. Culture might be boring for some people, including me. But, through this visit, I learnt more about the Cambodian culture, especially the traditional dances and the cultural practices which are new to me (eg. when a couple get married, the guy will stay in the girl's house, etc).
Again, this activity benefited me as I learnt new culture from the Cambodians themselves.
b. Were there learning points during your trip? What have you learnt? About yourself, your fellow expedition mate, Cambodia, orphans, etc.
I learnt lots of things through this trip.
About myself, I realized that I still take life for granted. For example, If I do not like the food I eat, I will just stop eating and throw away the food. But, for the less fortunate people, they will be extremely happy even if we give them only one piece of small candy. So, I learnt to be more grateful and appreciative.
About my fellow expedition mate and the facilitators (Mr.Ben Cho and Ms.Lai), they are awesome! Frankly speaking, one of the reasons that I could survive the trip is because of their motivation, determination and caring attitude. Everybody was just so helpful, cheerful and caring despite the 'hard-to-survive' environment (eg.dirty surroundings, mosquitoes everywhere...)
About Cambodians and the orphans, they are very friendly, simple and happy. They really have a simple lifestyle. They only have one dish meal, they are not dependent on handphones and internet, yet they are still happily enjoying lives.
c. The theme of this expedition was 'Challenge your perspectives". Did this happen? Did you have a new insight? Or do you now have a new perspective?
After going on this trip, my perspective is challenged...
We live in a developed country, where money seems to play the most important role in everything. I had the perspective that money could make us happy. When I saw rich people, I would think that they are the happiest people on earth because they could satisfy all their needs and wants. But I guess, I was wrong. I could see that the Cambodians(who are less fortunate) live happy lives too. This is simply because they appreciate what they have.
Wealth (richness) is not the main thing that can make us happy. Indeed, being appreciative and grateful towards whatever things we have currently is what make us happy.
d. Call to action. Do you feel you have contributed at the expedition? Would there be future expeditions for you? What are your plans (related to community service). What does the future hold for you?
Honestly, I feel that I have not contributed much. I can't deny that sometimes I found myself secretly grumbling in my heart when I was doing the activities (eg. Oh my, this place is so dirty, I don't like it). That indirectly translates that I have not given my best, in other words, I did my service to the community half-heartedly. But, eventhough I grumbled and complained, indeed I really hope to see the people smile.
I believe I can't be selfish and stop to serve the community as there are many more people who are in need out there. I would like to see myself involve in other community service projects like educational community service, mission trips, fund raisings, donations, etc. In my future expeditions, I will try my best contribute more and whole-heartedly.
In conclusion, I am grateful to have the opportunity to go for this trip. Experiences and Learnings are the most valueable gifts that I get from this Youth Expedition Project :)
~A sincere smile from the heart is one simple service that we can give everyday~

•Going to Cambodia, and on a personal level, what do you hope to achieve? (Give at least three different objectives)
Firstly, I hope to be tougher, both mentally and physically. To let myself know that i am actually capable of going through, living in a third world country like cambodia.
Secondly, I want to appreciate everything i have back here in Singapore more.
Thirdly, I want to gather more experience so i can share with those around me, who havent got the chance to go on the trip. Share with them things which i learnt from the trip, the kids in the orphanage, the build house process, etc.
Fourthly, I will like to learn more about the country, their culture, practices and history.
•On my own, have I made a concerted effort to find out more about Cambodia? Its geography, history, culture, politics, economy? What can I do about it?
Other than stuff that i read through for the interview, honestly, i havent done any more reading. But i know i will definitely understand more about about Cambodia after the visit to museum, cambodia cultural village and angkor wat.
•What are your fears going on this trip? Elaborate.
Eh. Am going to expect the worst, no fear.

Hello all this is Valerie.......
• Going to Cambodia, and on a personal level, what do you hope to achieve? (Give at least three different objectives)
I really would like to be more grateful for what I have in Singapore and what the people over there may not be able to enjoy. Eg: good food, clean water, cleanliness, aircon. Cause many a times we take things for granted, not appreciating it until it’s gone!!
I also hope that I can bring joy and love to the children at the orphanage; I can’t imagine what’s it like to not have parents from a very young age. Maybe the experience would help me value my parents more even if they nag too much (haha).
PATIENCE!! This I really need to train for, I find that I have trouble waiting for buses (especially), trains, anything you name it! So by being there im sure I have to do a lot of waiting around since there won’t be transportation readily available.
• On my own, have I made a concerted effort to find out more about Cambodia? Its geography, history, culture, politics, economy? What can I do about it?
Honestly NO! But I do know they have a corrupted government haha.
• What are your fears going on this trip? Elaborate.
Definitely the state of the TOILET, seriously would be praying that there would be no lizards of any kind – BIG OR SMALL! The toilet is super important cause that’s where we would be pooping and bathing.
If I would be able to build the house given my limited capability and physical strength.
Not forgetting if I have enough water to drink (I need toooonnnness of water, no joke) OR if I drink too much and I need to pee so very often (which brings us back to my first fear) !!!!

Howdy Y'all!
*Ahem* Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is huiwen speaking =D I'm kinda hyped up for Cambodia! Must be all that packing.
Hmm... What do I hope to achieve going to Cambodia?
Actually on the more self-centred note, I really wanna leave Cambodia mentally stronger than the current me. The current me who is scared of insects, dark, being alone, and all that wimpy stuff. I really wanna leave Cambodia less spoilt than I currently am. (HEY! At least I KNOW I'm spoilt!) I know I ought to quit complaining about having to walk too much when it's only from Clarke Quay to Chinatown, it's only 1 MRT stop! I know I ought to quit complaining about Singapore being too hot for my liking, it's not as bad as Africa! And I know I should stop expecting things to be done for me, hello limhuiwen, please remember you are not a kid anymore! I know I told myself the same thing before I went for my leadership camp, survivor camp in Pahang and all that. But, I'm always a step closer to it I guess =)
I also hope that by us going over to Hope Village, we will benefit the kids there, with whatever small ways we can do. I'll want to etch myself into their memorable childhood when everything is still so happy and simple. I'll want to play sports with them and just have them love exercising. I'll want to teach them how to play board games because it is just so much fun to play it with friends and I'm sure they'll be having fun with it even when we leave. I'll want talk to them (even if I have to speak in sign language) about everything under the sun, tell them how we have fun, know how they have fun, tell them how we have stress, know what they get stressed about, tell them how we get along with people, know how they get along with people. I can go on and on talking to them. Maybe someone should keep watch of me just in case I talk to them till they drown in my saliva or something.
I also hope that by building the house/s we are helping the people in Cambodia, even if its just a few people. Like the charity shows in Channel 8 always say, no help is too little. I really really hope the house when built will help at least a family leave the streets and into somewhere they can call their own.
Have I made a concerted effort to find out more about Cambodia?
Honestly? Nope, I haven't. But I truly hope I can learn more about Cambodia when I am there, its past and how people were like way back, and of course its present and future which I will know when I get to talk to the kids.
What are my fears going on this trip?
My fears for this trip are no different from the previous time there, and my survivor camp. I'm really worried about cleanliness of the toilets because the other time I was there, it was really very clean so I don't know about this time. But then again, I bathed in a river in the middle of a jungle in Pahang with mudskippers and all, so what could be worse right?
I have been very lucky my previous few trips because my most hated monthly female problem didn't clash with the dates I was going. Unfortunately for this time, it did. So I already took the pills to stop it from coming, but you can never be too sure about chemicals and shit happens at times, so it still MIGHT come. If it does, there will be a mega problem when we are building houses out without toilets. Oh wells, I'll see how when it happens.
And people who know me will know I am a VERY picky eater. So food is a mega problem ANYWAY I go, even in Singapore. But it's alright, I'm going prepared with food enough to last me 12 days there =)
And secretly, I am VERY afraid that the house we built will not be stable or last long enough. I never know if the one I built on my previous trip is still standing or not. I really don't want to endanger anyone's life. I want to do good =D
Woots! Cambodia, I'm coming again!
