Thanks Bong Vantharith and Kimheng for your response!
I've heard about Wiki Loves Monuments! Very interesting indeed! When Bong Vantharith comes back in August, let's do something big.
Right now with the request of my juniors of doing it as soon as possible, we have decided to do a very small event. I didn't know how to call it, so we just chose "Wiki takes PP"...just to mean that we'll take pictures for example, of the Councile of Ministers building. LOL, and then we can write a Wikipedia article about it!
Let me know what you think of it. I need Bong Vantharith's as well as Kimheng's help to teach them along with me how they edit articles on Wikipedia and upload photos to the articles as well as WikiCommons.
We intend to do this every other 2 weeks and gradually more people from not just one university will participate. Once we've established a network, we'll do something bigger in August! Please let me know!

I'm attending #WikiWomen Camp in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The 3-day event really helps me see the potential activities related to Wikipedia that can happen in the next months or years in Cambodia.
I really appreciate the work that has been done by Vantharith and the rest of the Khmer Wikipedian members.
At the workshop here involves women from all over the world, and they talk about the participation of women in Wikimedia movement. From 9-10% of the Wikipedia contributors are female. That clearly means that there is a lake of female participation -- not to mention the male involvement in our country.
My friends from journalism school (journalism students) and I will organize an informal meet-up on one of the weekends: "Wikipedia takes Phnom Penh". We invite friends who have cameras and laptops to meet at one cafe. There will probably be around 20 of us to join. Please join us if you're in Phnom Penh. Its informal and it won't be anything serious, lots of fun involved.
The reason why we're doing is that we want to increase the number of pictures taken in Phnom Penh in the Wiki Commons. At the same time, we'll help increase articles about Phnom Penh on English as well as Khmer Wikipedia.
This is just a call to other Wikipedians in town who are interested to join. ;-)
