Rochester man creates school in Cambodia

Birth of an opportunity for Cambodian students

Rochester resident Kim Sin closes his eyes and daydreams.

He remembers seeing the children in his native Cambodia, sifting through trash looking for a meal. But he envisions a place where the children can make a decent leaving and learn English, doing so with books donated by those in southeastern Minnesota.

The dream isn't too far from reality.

Sin, 33, and several friends have created a school in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, that teaches English to about 200 people, from young children to 20-year-olds.
