This project conducted training, with the emphasis on print media, for journalists from Laos, Vietnam, and Myanmar, where media restrictions are considered to be stricter than in Cambodia. From October to December 2000 and January to March 2001 a total of 12 journalists from the three target countries received training at the University of Phnom Penh. In addition to international relations, reporting and interviewing, desktop publishing, and other technical aspects of journalism, they studied such basic principles as the elimination of subjectivity and the presentation of differing opinions. They were also instructed in news website design and other aspects of information technology. The instructors included two veteran American journalists with experience as reporters for the Seattle Times and other U.S. newspapers and staff writer from the Cambodia Daily. It is especially noteworthy that the participants included six journalists from Myanmar, where there is no opportunity for such training.
