Ratanakiri is the last province to Go-Live for Core Banking Project.
Here's a brief description of that Mission. Cut the crap of Thursday, Friday and Saturday cuz those days are for travelling and working. (days end with drinking and stuff.. On Saturday we had lunch at Yeak Lom Lake and yes I did swim in that lake. It remind me of Langkawi Lake) Both are consequence of volcanic eruption.
Let's kick off with Sunday. One of colleague found a local Tour guide. We had breakfast and started our journey to met aborigine local tribe. At first we felt comfortable cuz our guide is a local aborigine person too BUT ( of course every good things has a "BUT") we eventually found out he is from different tribe of the visited village. Guide is ទំពូន and visited village is គ្រិន. I can feel the villagers is not happy with our present as some of them were making loud shout while other told us to leave too. However the guide still insist "it's okay no worry, everything is alrite"... in my mind, i thought what the heck man... i walk out with the drivers and told him to សារ៉េក្បាលឡានចេញអោយហើយ... while other colleagues still enjoying taking photo. We went out village safe and sound :D
Here are some funny tradition i know abt those aborigine people. when they សែនព្រេន in their village, we are not suppose to enter and if we did, they will ask us to join the feast till we unconsciously drunk otherwise u have to pay for the whole party.. what is more interesting than that is abt their daughter. they always allow their daughter stayed in separate house. every guys can visit her as long as she like u. u can stay the whole night, do whatever u wish to.. the key is always wake up in the morning at 4PM and leave ASAP.. if the oldies caught u before u left, u have to marry their daughter... not really like it huh?
Other fun beside visiting those villages are... umm... we ate, we drank, we swam and we ate again, we drank and we drank... yeah!! that's y i gain lots of weight... :( felt so guilty to drink... the only thing i hate the most at that region is ស៊ីសត្វព្រៃ ... man i don like it at all... i remembered at the restaurant i ordered pork rib and waiter said it doesn't have... only got ជ្រូកព្រៃ អ្វីៗក៏ព្រៃ អញ្ចឹងបានស្រុកទេសហិនហោច។ អ្នកទៅក៏អញ្ចឹងដែរ ចង់តែស៊ីសាច់ព្រៃ។ យ៉ាប់នុះយ់ាប់។
We had a good time drinking and playing with waterfall... my drag one carton of beer to the water stream and drink in the mid of water stream... so cool... beer bring the heat and cool down by water. FYI we didn't make any mess... we clean up and bring back the garbage after drinking. cool yah? okay beloved is my handsome me and other colleague... really enjoy this mission though tiring.
