Kompong Luong School
Kompong Luong (or PhumĭKâmpóngLuŏng) is a large
floating village north of Krakor, on Tonlé Sap Lake in Cambodia. The students
are not that many and half of them live at the school. This is because they are
actually orphans. That is right. Apart from teaching the children, the teachers
also take care of the orphans.

Just like the school inside a cave we have
discussed before, this school also has become a tourist attraction. This is
because most tourists are curious about their system and wondering about how
they can help the orphans. Most of the children’s parents are fishermen and
when they are studying in class, they practices fishing as well. The government
there has organized an idea where the tourists can help better the children’s
lives there by providing their arts and crafts works at the floating village. I
would also want to go there if I have the chance. For me, this school will
definitely attract the philanthropists from all around the world. Seeing their
determination to study has given me the encouragement that I needed to be
grateful of what I have now.
