Bamboo train railway in battambang,Cambodia
A norry or nori (Khmer: ណូរី, from the French word for lorry) is an improvised rail vehicle from Cambodia. Lonely Planet describes it as Cambodia's bamboo train.[1] The trains run at speeds of up to 50 km/h (31 mph) on the metre gauge tracks around Battambang and Poipet. A scheduled service run by the Government also operates, but is slower at 30 km/h around 18 mph. The rest of the network, originally built by the French colonial government, is largely abandoned, after the Khmer Rouge regime effectively shut it down. In 2006 the BBC reported that there was only one scheduled service a week and it ran at not much more than walking pace.In October 2017 the bamboo train was no longer available in the original form due to the national effort to rebuild the rail line from the Thai-Cambodia border town Poipet to Phnom Penh. However, the bamboo train is being rebuilt near Wat Banan in order to cater to the local tourism industry. The relocated site is set to open in middle January 2018.

A Monk’s life in Cambodin
Let’s be honest, most of your travel albums from South East Asia will be littered with pictures of monks. Their orange garments, yellow umbrellas, and dawn/dusk processions definitely make for some picturesque photo opportunities – but there is so much more to a monk’s life than being a model for your lens.
Suong is a monk at Wat Piphetthearam in Battambang and came to the pagoda when he was just a young boy. “I became a monk when I was a child and at the time my mother asked me, do you want to become a monk? I asked her that if I go the pagoda can I study, and she said yes why not! My mother said f want to go to the pagoda then you can study with the monks and if you stay with me then you cannot study. When I lived with my mother we had to do a lot of work to help my mother and earn money rather than go to school. If you live in the pagoda though you can just study everything with the monks, we also get food and somewhere to live which is really good.”
Many young boys choose to become monks because they are living in similar situations to Suong. Often times children come to the pagoda because their parents have passed away and they cannot live with their siblings, find food or support themselves. The pagoda and community within is a refuge for these young people without the same stigma which might come with receiving help from other organisations.
The other main reason why people choose to become monks is because they have followed their parents into the brotherhood or want to learn more about Buddhism. “They think that the Buddhism is very good for them. The theory helps to clean the mind and bring peace.”
The pagoda, and becoming a monk, provides people with many opportunities that they might otherwise not have. “In the pagoda you have a lot of opportunities. You can study Buddhism and you can also study outside. Some schools are free-of-charge for the monks and so they have the chance to study.”
When people have children young in Cambodia they often have to stop their studies so they can work to support their child. Once they are at a stage when they can study again they are years older than the other students at the same level as them. “They feel really embarrassed and ashamed and they don’t want to study with the younger children – so they can come and study in the pagoda without judgement. We teach children, adults, elderly… anyone who wants to learn.”
