On our own in the Self Reliance(SR)/PEF office

Phanna and Sameth were at the office for a couple of hours this morning, then they left to do some My Path Self Reliance devotionals in the Provinces today and tomorrow.  That means that we were the only ones there to man the SR/PEF Office most of the day.  That was alright because this is the slow time of year for PEF, but we did have one of the participants come in who we got to meet. Unfortunately he had questions that we could not answer so we had to ask him to come back.

Elder Oveson found some Excel file lists of the PEF participants, so he was in second heaven, sorting and analyzing a variety of aspects and scenarios.  It was interesting that the number one course of study was Accounting/Auditing, which was 17% of all the participants.  A graduate with an accounting degree makes about $500 per month, which is a good wage in Cambodia.

We spent a lot more time going through files on the computer and there are still more to go through in the future.  We are starting to plan our days better, to give a little bit more variety, so we do not get bogged down with going through stuff.
