The Monkey and the Turtle is a fable about a hungry monkey who meets a turtle. They decide to plant banana trees together, but the monkey's tree fails while the turtle's bears fruit. When the turtle asks for fruit, the monkey eats them all. As revenge, the turtle tricks the monkey into falling from the tree and is killed. The turtle then tricks the other monkeys into eating the dead monkey's meat and drowning themselves trying to catch lobsters.
We held our second annual writing workshop this summer for Junior High and High School students in Chanleas Dai. The workshop was facilitated by Ream Nuon, who has recently published a few short stories of his own. During the workshop, the students studied the foundations of writing and drawing. After learning the basics of storytelling, students wrote and illustrated their own adventures. By the end of the workshop, the students had created 12 original short stories. Over the next year we’ll be sharing all these stories with you, translated from Khmer to English, as a regular feature of our monthly newsletter.
First up is Paung Paung’s Dream, a story which inspires us all to pursue our dreams, no matter how far-fetched they may seem…

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. A Monkey, looking very
sad and dejected, was
walking along the bank
of the river one day when
he met a turtle.
3. How are
you?
Oh, my friend, I am very hungry. The squash
of Mr. Farmer were all taken by the other
monkeys, and now I am about to die from
want of food.
4. Do not be discouraged, take a
bob and follow me and we
will steal some banana plants.
5. So they walked along together
until they found some nice plants
which they dug up, and then they
looked for a place to set them.
Finally the monkey climbed a tree
and planted his in it, but as the
turtle could not climb he dug a
hole in the ground and set his
there.
6. When their work was finished they
went away, planning what they should
do with their crop. The monkey said:
7. When my tree bears fruit,
I shall sell it and have a
great deal of money.
When my tree bears fruit, I
shall sell it and buy three
varas of cloth to wear in place
of this cracked shell.
8. A few weeks later they went back to the place to see their plants
and found that that of the monkey was dead, for its roots had had no
soil in the tree, but that of the turtle was tall and bearing fruit.
9.
10. I will climb to
the top so that
we can get the
fruit.
Please give me
some to eat,
11. but the monkey threw him only a green one and ate
all the ripe ones himself.
12. When he had eaten all the good bananas, the monkey stretched his
arms around the tree and went to sleep.
13. The turtle, seeing this, was very angry and considered how he might punish the thief.
Having decided on a scheme, he gathered some sharp bamboo which he all around
under the tree, and then he exclaimed:
16. The monkey was so startled at the cry
that he fell upon the sharp bamboo and
was killed.
Then the turtle cut the dead monkey
into pieces, put on it, and dried it in the
sun. The next day, he went to the
mountains and sold his meat to other
monkeys who gladly gave him squash
in return. As he was leaving them he
called back:
17. "Lazy fellows, you are now eating your own
body; you are now eating your own body."
Then the monkeys ran and caught him and
carried to their own home.
Let us take a hatchet," said one old monkey, "and
cut him into very small pieces."
But the turtle laughed and said: "That is just
what I like. I have been struck with a hatchet
many times. Do you not see the black scars on
my shell?"
Then one of the other monkeys said: "Let us
throw him into the water."
18. At this the turtle cried and begged them to
spare his life, but they paid no heed to his
pleadings and threw him into the water. He
sank to the bottom, but very soon came up
with a lobster. The monkeys were greatly
surprised at this and begged him to tell
them how to catch lobsters.
"I tied one end of a string around my
waist," said the turtle.
"To the other end of the string I tied a stone
so that I would sink."
19. The monkeys immediately tied
strings around themselves as the
turtle said, and when all was ready
they plunged into the water never
to come up again.
And to this day monkeys do not
like to eat meat, because they
remember the ancient story.
