Living Water-Mrs. Pang Sokhenh-Prey Preas Village

Prey Preas village is the village of  Kampong Svay Commune, Kampong Svay District, Kapong Thom Province is around 30 km from the town, most the people in the village are work in the rice field in the raining season, most of  the people don’t have any work to do because this village have a lot of poor people. In the dry season some of the people in village leave their family to work in other village like Phnom Penh and Thai to find work and work for other people in the farm. Because of this village doesn’t have enough water to use and the village far from market the people they can’t plan vegetable  to sale for their living.

Mrs. Pang Sokhenh, 53 years old said: Before I use the water from open well around 500 matter from my house. In my family we don’t have enough water to use in dry season because the well around my house is dry and I need to go far to get the water from other village. Everyday my husband need to go and get the water around 1km  from the well because we need a lot of water for make Khmer noodle to sale so if we don’t have good or clean water we can’t make noodle. My husband he can’t get a lot of water because he has only one lag (he crippled). I very worry about my family because we need water to make noodle if we don’t have we can’t make it, I don’t know what to do because I don’t have ability to drill the good well.
Sometime my son helps me to get water but it still not enough because he needs to study he can’t help full day.
Now I’m very happy that the well is drill in my village, this well very helpful to my family. I Don’t worry about water anymore and my husband don’t need to go far to get water anymore. In my family now we have enough water to use and I have clean water to make my noodle to sale in the village. This is big blessing to my family and other people in my village.
Thank you so much to Donor and CBN Cambodia that you help the poor people in my village. Because of your help my family has enough water to use and have better life. Thank you.
