THE SOUTHEAST ASIA GLOBE
|
The Southeast Asia Globe is a regional, independent media organization with reporters and editors across the region. Based in Phnom Penh, The Globe is considered one of the most trusted newsrooms in Cambodia. I joined as a reporting intern, before transitioning to a staff reporter. In this new role, I cover news and the environment.
On the environmental beat, I've been reporting on the most pressing issues in Cambodia and across Southeast Asia, such as illegal logging, coastal conditions, renewable energy, aquaculture and biodiversity. Alongside my writing, I produce photos and videos as part of a newsroom-wide effort to improve The Globe's multimedia storytelling. |

Loss of tourism dollars threaten traditional Cambodian arts

16 years on, Danish band still rocks Cambodia's airwaves
