Rural Cambodians Blogging

Beth Kantor has a reallly neat interview with Lux Mean: Teaching Cambodians in Rural Areas To Blog. When asked about what he needs to continue his work, Lux replied:
I need creative ideas to promote blogging in Cambodia. I hope they can email me about new idea. I am setting up a blog team for a few blogs of Clogger (http://www.clogger-cam.blogspot.com), which is an umbrella site. If I am less busy, those will come out next month which include corruption issue (http://www.corruptalk.blogspot.com), legal update (http://www.lawatch.blogspot.com), update about demonstration/protest which mainly on land issue (http://www.protestrack.blogspot.com), border issue (http://www.protestrack.blogspot.com), and for picture or Khmer hand writing (http://www.arorm.blogspot.com) which maybe workable for non-English Cambodians and children. Till all these blog are operated that I know what kind of support I need.

For, rural area, internet extension is critical to blogging promoting. This is what I really need.
So, let's pitch in! (Note: Beth also pointed to the great Global Voices Cambodia page.)

Hi Nancy:

Thanks for pointing to Lux's interview and his projects. The Cambodian blogosphere is really taking off and expect to see some Khmer language blogs after the launch of khmer language blog software.
