Saturday, 7.4.2007: Headlines, Apologies, and Scheduling

Norbert Klein

Sorry, my severe cold and fever – in Germany – kept me longer and more away from the computer than I had thought.

Now, on Tuesday, 10 April, I finally could post some material for Saturday, 7 April – headlines only for this day, no text translatoins.

I hope to catch up soon – but I cannot make a promise.

From 14 to 17 April many offices and businesses and newspapers will be closed in Cambodia for the Khmer New Year. There will also be no new texts published on this Mirror. Normal, daily publications after the Khmer New Year are scheduled to start, therefore, on 18 April. And by that time I hope be well again, and back in Phnom Penh.
