Dear KI-Media Readers,

National Geopgraphic magazine will feature Angkor Wat in its July 2009 issue. This issue also includes a supplemental map depicting the rise and fall of Angkor Wat, as well as the layout of the hydraulic engineering work designed by our Khmer Angkor ancestors. The National Geographic Channel will also air Secrets of Angkor on 14 July 2009 (see announcement below).

Our sincere thanks to Lok Chanda C. for bringing this to our attention!
