Cambodia and a number of international organisations on February 27 jointly launched a multi-donor initiative to cope with climate change.

The initiative, called the Cambodia Climate Change Alliance (CCCA), received US$8.9 million in funding from various countries and international organisations worldwide.

The CCCA aims to help the Cambodian National Climate Change Committee to develop and coordinate policies on responding to the impact of climate change on agriculture and energy production and developing coastal areas in a sustainable way.

The initiative will raise the awareness of the Cambodian people on global climate change while providing senior government officials and representatives from social organisations with training and instruction on ways to deal with the threats posed by it.

At the launch ceremony, Cambodian Environment Minister Mok Mareth said the CCCA is a turning point in Cambodia’s roadmap toward mitigating the impact of climate change.

According to the United Nations, Cambodia is one of the countries that will suffer most from the first impact of global climate change.

In recent years, Cambodia has been hit by abnormally severe floods, droughts and storms, which occur more frequently than in the past.

Begging is Cambodia's traditional culture, isn't it? Beg more and get more money, beggars, 555

What's wrong with receiving financial aid. Not just Cambodia, many other poor countries also receiving aid. The rich countries should help the poor countries in developing the plan. The rich countries are causing more affect on climate than poor countries.

Any one who believe in this baloney 'Club-Bull' warming is sick in the head. I don't buy into this lie.
Do a search on Youtube on HAARP and learn the truth behind this Club-Bull wiggling. You are playing into the hands of the world controller.

On the hand...club bull warming is true, this world will be burn up to rid off the impurities that had marred this once-perfect world.
