Returning for Cambodia’s Development – Eam Sreynich

I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to have completed my prestigious Australia Awards Scholarship.

I’m particularly proud of the academic and personal growth I achieved through my world-class agricultural sciences education and the opportunity to immerse myself in different cultures.

During this period, I gained practical knowledge and experience. Attending international conferences and engaging with Australian farmers helped me build a network. The warm and kind Australian people made Australia feel like a second home. Exploring natural wonders from the iconic Great Barrier Reef to the vast outback provided unforgettable memories and fostered personal growth and a deep appreciation for the land and its people.

Upon returning to Cambodia, I’m eager to reconnect with family and friends, share my enriched experiences and have my mom’s home-cooked meals that I have dearly missed. I can’t wait to use the abilities and information I’ve gained to help Cambodia’s agriculture industry grow.
