Angkor Hotel a moderately modern hotel built and strongly inspired by the rich heritage of Khmer culture. Om Savan is one of 14 students who have started a yearlong Certificate in Culinary Skills program supervised by the Cambodia Hotel and Tourism Academy. The program is the first of its kind. They should work about one or two more years, and then they open a restaurant by them selves within the next five years. The group hopes to get more NGO support for future programs so that more Cambodians can take advantage of the training.
Government leaders are enthusiastic about the class.
Although the classes only started four weeks ago, some of the students already are brimming with self-confidence. I will open a restaurant later on.
