On Wednesday 18 march, during the closing of the meeting for the work tally for the ministry of Education, Hun Sen recognized that the quality of the Cambodian education system is limited.
“I noted that some Master and PhD degrees are too easy to obtain, and there are too many already. Cambodia must be the only country with so many diplomas. Furthermore, there are people who offer to ghost-write thesis!” Hun Sen indicated.
According to Hun Sen, competency must prime over the diplomas: “I don’t look at diplomas. To me, they must show competency. Some Master and PhD degree holders do not even know how to use a computer!” Hun Sen also cited the example set by Kuwait where the number of candidates to higher education is limited to 25. In Cambodia, hundreds of students obtain their Master or PhD degrees.
According the PM, the hiring of new civil servants or employees will be done though testing and not based on the diploma presented: “As an ASEAN member, our country needs human resources capable of working with our partners. However, when a PhD in international relations does not even know what ASEAN is, and what country it is made up of, it is a serious issue.”
Rong Chhun, President the Cambodia Independent Teachers’ Association (CITA), welcomes Hun Sen’s acknowledgment of the reality of the Cambodian education system. “We are optimist because we have a lot of human resources, but we cannot compare the quality of Cambodia’s human resources to those of the neighboring countries. It is a shame for us, and I hope that the government will respect the declaration made by the PM,” Rong Chhun indicated while adding that education without quality is like a poisonous pill because it makes the situation worst.
According to the yearly report by the ministry of Education, Cambodia has 1,634 maternal schools, 6,476 primary schools, 1,006 junior high schools, 315 high schools and 77 higher education institutions both public and private. These higher education institutions receive more that 130,000 students, 864 of whom are pursuing a PhD degree, 11,681 a master degree, 110,000 a bachelor degree and 14,857 in preparation classes for a bachelor program.

We need re-education programs for PhD holders, including hun sen and his ministers.
The first lesson would be the effective public services, which ban the relatives of Head Institutions to be employed at the same working place.
How does it sound?
3:13 PM
It will never happened--not even the U.S.
We do not need to and we can't re-educate the old generations. For the future of our country we need to educate the young generation of Khmer in some fields of human value, like Khmer value, Citizenship and Responsible.
On ne peut pisser sur la tête de soi même Au cambadge comme on dit CHAK TEUk LEU KBAL TEA ou pour faire plaisir samdach Ta a dit pisser dans un violon mais samdach Hun Sen peut faire sur lui même Il faut toujours prendre à la rigolade les paroles de Samdach sont plus risible que les amuseurs publiques cambodgiensOn peut parler 1 millions de mots INNTERRESANTS d'autre personnes helas il y en a pas au cambodge actuellemntun de personnage il suffit d'un mots que tous les cambodgiens ecoutent Il y a beaucoup de cLOWNS au cambodge mais ils font pleurere et font souffir des enfants jeunes et vieux alors que le metier de clown c'est de divertir les peuples
The constructive critics are better, but not that kind of complain "around the kitchen corners."
I ADMITTED THE QUALITY OF THE EDUCATION SYSTEM IS VERY POOR.
Their BA can't compare to the grade 10 students before the year of war.
One of the worst education is in Long Beach, CA. Not many people with degree from there can fill out their own work application. I hope we don't give them any job here.
Soum choun Roeung!!!
CHAO HOOKER SEN AND NEANG KORNG REY!
Staring Decho dek juy Hun Sen.
Co-star Bun Rany as vampire khmer blood sucking Mi Kong Rey

អ្នកឯងហាននិយាយបានតែគ្នាឯងទេបើបរទេស
ពុំវិញរួញចួចឌុកដឿទៅទៀត។
There is alot of fake phdick going around cause the same face of PM is way too long. TIME , TIME , TIME, TIME to step DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN, all the way down. LOL
There was a story posted here (on KI not long ago) about Khmer teacher in Lowell got canned for failing to pass basic English test, and you know what happened? They just paid the judge in the county to reinstated them into school again.
Now tell me, what type of quality education is that in the US?
អ្នកណាមានប្រាជ្ញាជាងហ៊ុនសែន ជួលគ្រូបង្រៀនអង់គ្លេសពិសេសដល់ផ្ទះតាំងពីឆ្នាំ១៩៨០
រហូតដល់សព្វថ្ងៃ នៅតែហ៊ុនសែននិយាយអង់គ្លេសពុំកើត ស្រាប់តែទទួលសញ្ញាប័ត្របណ្ឌិតខាងមុខវិជ្ជាផ្សេងទៅវិញ។
Hun Sen doe not even have a hi-school diploma, and even he tires to get one, he won't be able to; but how come PhD is found to be easy for one to obtain? Perhaps a bought PhD?
Samdach HS est intelligent Dire qu'il en'est pas intelligent c'est faux , sinon il n'est pas premier ministre depuis 30 ans IL faut dire que HS n'est pas un homme cultive est plus approprié Le degré de CULTURE de HS est limité Il peut faire venir tous les prof de la terre en anglais il est incapable d'apprendre Je parie IL EST INCAPABLE de comprendre le PALi et pourtant lui est un ancien garçon qui suit les bonzes pour faire la quete de tous les jours Il suffit d'analyser son visage et je ne suis pas physionomiste Je ne dis pas qu'il n'est pas intelligent lui son inyelligent est plutot versé vers le coté obscur et il a servi il sert et servira de cette INTELLIGENCE LA Il suffit d'analyser ses langauges et on comprend
To understand the true nature of Cambodian educational system is to look at the Cambodian student text book!
Cambodian student doesn't even have a text book that can explain the subject thoroughly! And what they have is a fucken pamphlet with brief explanation on the subject then following by confusing explanation and then a few easy problems to be solved as homework!
This is fucken embarrassing and AH HUN SEN government called this education! It is no wonder most of the CPP leaders including AH HUN SEN send all their children oversea to get quality education!
These two monkeys do not look appropriate in such gowns and caps.
I think we should learn to acknowledge the truth and move to correct it. Let's not bickering like children... What you speak tell a lot about who you are and what level of your education. You speak for yourself.
I think you should give your best advise to Hun Sen, the role model of education. Tell him not to say PhD is easy to obtain, and he should learn to ackwonledge himself as a savage rustic. And if possible, you just go straight to beg him not to try to wear that gown anymore. It does not fit him.
To 10:58PM
Tell me that you know something that I don't know?
So tell me how do you go about correcting Cambodian educational system under AH HUN SEN corrupted regime? How?
