Reading VISION


This is the vision when
Cambodians currently read.

NO ONE can be made to enjoy reading if the mangled language frustrates and confuses them, giving them headaches from the burden and work of having to decipher and fight the printed page before they can get to the content.

And here, the content is another layer of morass because of the messy or incorrect translation.

And the above-mentioned barriers of reading haven't even factor in the deep trauma and social living conditions which inhibit reading...

This is the vision when Cambodians 
read with punctuation

(as a consequence, automatically allows 
for more word spacing)



I deeply believe EVERY CAMBODIAN can be habituated to love to read if given INTERESTING reading materials, and WHEN THE LANGUAGE is cleaned up with correct, clear translation (if translated, which currently the majority of published materials are) AND with PROPER, CONSISTENT, SUFFICIENT PUNCTUATION. 
Use punctuation so your mind 
can see with 20/20 vision.
