WELCOME to the SRMCDO!

The Siem Reap Muslim Community for Development Organization known as SRMCDO, is a small grass root organization located in Seam Reap Province in Cambodia. This organization was established in 2005 by the founder Tuan Haji Musa Soleh.

The SRMCDO provides the following programs:

1. E-Qurban and Aqiqah: this program aims to provide Qurban and Aqiqah to the philanthropists who would like to do the Qurban and Aqiqah obligations and distribute the meat to poor community members in Seam Reap.

2. Building School Program: We believe that by providing good education to the community this will in the long run eradicate poverty and improve their quality of live. For this reason the SRMCDO want to support the construction of schools to provide a place to study.

3. Vocational Training Program: To provide and improve the skills for the society, SRMCDO instigates the vocational training program. Adolescents get additional skills at either computers or English to improve their chances of employment.

4. English Conversation Club: As Siem Reap is a touristic town that attract many tourists to visit, the use of English is an important extra skills. The SRMCDO established a free ECC program twice a week for their students and community to practice English in their daily life.

5. Women's Development Program: The SRMCDO is concerned about the disadvantaged women in the family, and therefore, tries to facilitate improving their skills for living, such as: handicraft production and sewing skills.

6. Shadakah Centre Program: The SRMCDO realized that to build a better community is not easy and requires a lot of resources. For that reason, the Shadakah centre program set up to encourages donors to participate in our fund raising.

7. Volunteer Program: As we have many programs, we offers some of the programs to the volunteers who have the capacity and availability to help us. You can be in our English teaching or computer training, involved in our women's development program or contribute in our ECC, fund raising, tours etc.

8. Student Sponsorship Program: The SRMCDO has sent some students to the Australian Centre of Education (ACE), to improve their English, so they will be available to transfer their knowledge to other SRMCDO’s students. In addition we have sent some students to the college and university in Siem Reap. All this can happen with the support of our sponsorship program.

9. Tour Package and Restaurant: The SRMCDO provides support in the income generation of community member, especially for the Tuk Tuk drivers. As Siem Reap is touristic town, the SRMCDO offers tours packages and good restaurants for the tourists to enjoy the local Khmer foods.

Iftar at Floating Muslim Village in Seam Reap

Are you fasting? hungry, wanna have Iftar together with Muslim's Seam Ream Community.. just visit our SRMCDO leader Ustaz Musa, and you will be welcome to joint our iftar function. Some kind philantropist from M'sia donate for this iftar-breaking fasting event with the Muslim floating village at Preaek Toael (around the biggest lake in Tonle Sap Lake). The condition of the floating village housing, look very simple and full of limitation. We did our breaking fasting (Iftar) in one Surau (small mosque) floating on the bank side of the river. A lot of fishes.. vegetables salad and many drinks. Hmmm good food again, the fried hot fishes and rices are always attempted to try first.

After breaking fasting, then taking ablutions.. hmm.. the clean water quiet difficult to find.. limited.. some people took ablutions from the muddy river's water. We finished the function about 1 hour, so on the way back home the road still same dark.. no so many lamps road around.. only some far distance got some lights for trapping grasshoppers.. (jangkrik).

Beside doing the Iftar at small mosque (surau) around Seam Reap provinces, SRMCDO also sometimes conducted the event in the office and almost everyday in the mosque has iftar function. Everybody are welcome to joint. Thanks
