2. I. Meaning of education
 Education is the process by which people acquire
knowledge, skill, habits, values, or attitudes. The word
education is also used to describe the results of the
educational process.

3. II. History of education
 The history of education according to Dieter Lenzen , president
of the Frey Universidad Berlin 1994, “being either millions of
years ago or at the end of 1770”. Education as a science cannot
be separated from the educational traditional that existed before.
Adults trained the young of their society in the knowledge and
skills they would need to master and eventually pass on. The
evolution of culture, and human being as a species depended on
this practice of transmitting knowledge. In pre-literate societies
this was achieved orally and through imitation. Story-telling
continued from one generation to the next Oral language
developed into written symbols and letters. The depth and
breadth of knowledge that could be preserved and passed soon
increased exponentially.

4. When culture began to extend their knowledge beyond the
basic skills of communicating, trading, gathering foo, religious
practices, etc… formal education, and schooling, eventually
followed. Schooling in the sense was already in place in Egypt
between 3000 and 500BC. The history of education is the
history of man as since it’s the main occupation of man to
pass Knowledge, skill and attitude from one generation to the
other so is education.

5. III. Why Education is down in
Cambodia
 When we talk about the development of a country, we are
also talking about human resources, and what brings human
resources to its fullest potential is inevitably education.
Therefore, Education System is considered to be the vessel
of human resources, and in turn the prosperity of a country.
However, during the Pol Pot regime from 1975 to 1979
Cambodian education system was largely destroyed. Schools
were abandoned, and teachers and scholars were killed
mercilessly. Education could only be found hidden secretly
throughout the pagodas with no official form.

6.  After waking up from this tragedy, Cambodia still has major
problems tampering the education system, including corruption,
poverty and mismanagement. Corruption happens frequently and
uncontrollably in every school either in urban or rural areas, and
the unsolved shortage of schools, school materials and proficient
teachers contributes even more to the declining education system
in Cambodia, making it fall even further from international
education systems. In order to get our education system back on
track, certain problems need to be solved such as tackling the
corruption problem and renovating the management in education
system so as to meet the international standard. And most
importantly, we need to bring all those plans into practice. This is
not easy, and it will take time. However, if the government and
citizens are together as one, it will not only boost the
improvement of education system but also the development of
Cambodia as a whole.

7. IV. Education Cambodian system
In nowadays’ civilized society, human resources are inevitably
needed for the development of a country. What’s more, these
human resources are not just any human resources. They must
be well trained both mentally and skillfully. The process that is
used to harness these people, making them the next golden
generations, is called Education System.

8. However, the education system varies from one country to
another, and the difference is even wider between developed
countries and the developing ones. Developed countries have
advanced and worldwide acknowledged education systems
which produce human resources to the highest possible level,
whereas developing countries are still struggling to create
proper education systems for their generations who are going
to be next leaders of the countries. Cambodia, a developing
country and one of the poorest, notably has lots of issues
with its education system. What are those major problems?
What’s more? Are there any possible
