It was the last day evening in March at Phnom Penh’s iconic National Olympic Stadium where Cambodia Science & Engineering Festival (CSEF) was being held in large scale for the third consecutive year. Most of the exhibitors already started uninstalling their booths. However, there was still one, attached with a colorful bus displayed nearby, still crowded by people. The booth belongs to STEM Bus Cambodia, which is a project running by STEM Cambodia Organization in partnership with the British Embassy, and Education Ministry. “We would like to strengthen the quality of human resource in Cambodia either in science or social science field. However, we have prioritized science more in education due to the high demand in job market,” said the Minister of Education, Hang Chuon Naron,
