Agronomes et Vétérinaires sans Fronitières (VSF-CICDA) is a French non governmental organization and currently working in the field of rural development in Cambodia. It’s specialized in VAHW training, VAHW and rice bank association creation and support and other related to rural development subject. Its first installation in Cambodia is in 1992 meanwhile with GRET.
After 7 months of theory class of DESS in Ho Chi Minh Ville, I decided to find a place for my 5 months final thesis writing in Cambodia for obtaining a Master’s degree of Animal Production, Hygiene, Quality and Environment from the University of François Rabelais Tours. At the meantime, I was recruited to be a french unofficial translator and co-worker with a french internship student for carrying out a study of economic impact of deworming fattening pigs in Tramkak district, Takeo province. During that time, I got lots technical supports, guidance and facilitation from local and expatriate staff members of VSF-CICDA. Thanks them for their kindnest.
Fortunately, I was promoted to be a formal livestock field officer in 19 November 2004 just few days after thesis prevention and successively as Livestock and Animal Health Advisor and Animal Health and Production Coordinator in 2 years. It was a great opportunity, provided by a well known VSF-CICDA, for a young graduated and inexperienced student like me. In response to the confidence of VSF-CICDA, I committed myself to work all the best for serving the unprivileged farmers in my own nation by providing my expertise and knowledge.
Nevertheless, my fruitful success in the career was not appeared by chance but it was happened by devoting time for work and research and supporting from VSF-CICDA Country and Regional Coordinator. Special thanks dedicated to senior VSF-CICDA staffs for their giving the golden opportunity and support and to junior staffs for their closed cooperation. I was very sad to leave all of them that we built up together lots souvenirs but I had to do it for other challenges.
