Here is my photo story entitled "Look at me".
Give me your thought related to Climate Change!

First of all, I want to say about what my story is. My photo story entitled “Look at me”. This photo story is shown about the daily life of OKrasa residents who live based on fishery. Their lives are relied on the weather, sea water level and Koang Kang forest. If the weather, sea water level and Koang Kang forest change, their lives also change. I also want to pick up other angle where most of people do not often mention about. Some just focus on fishing along Mekong River and what going on with people along river but they nearly totally forget lives of people living along the sea. What have been going with young boys or girls are living at Okrasa; what they are living for; just for fishing or nothing. I strong hope my photo story “Look at me” will urge you to understand what people living along the sea. I hope you can find a good solution for them or for us. My photo story also can share a small angle of life to you.

This Koang Kang forest located in Kep province. This forest is sheltered for sea fish. Right now, Koang Kang forest has been observed by one community in Kep called Chhne Ksach community.

Sothy, one of fishermen living at Okrosa village of Kep province, is preparing his boat and net before going to catching fish in the sea. Okrosa village is the biggest fishing village in Kep province.
Buntheuon, Phon, Nen, Mali, and Men are releasing fish and crabs after catching in the sea for over night. There are two groups of fishing; group one is going to catch from 2pm till 8am and group two is go to catch from 3am till 3pm.
The orphaned, Phon, 15-year-old, is living with Buntheuon in order to help catching fish in the sea. Phon always cleans up nets after coming back from the sea.
