Very cool man! You've definitely got to assemble a band in Phnom Penh and go make some change! + the editing continues to get better and better and better 🤙🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for this amazing lockdown lesson. I am, who live in the city and quarantine in a house, not knowing what the city is like under the lockdown. So I am grateful to come across your lesson video❣️
Colin, what a pleasure to see you here! A big thanks for helping to set me off on this journey by leading me to Saigon back in 2015. Hope to see you somewhere soon. I believe we almost crossed paths in Can Tho. All the very best! "BRT the change you wish to see in the world."
Great contents! Conrad!! Thank you so much for putting tons of efforts onto good initiative for Phnom Penh and the people! I'll contact you privately! Cheers!
Wow! I’ve watched a few of your videos in the past, and a few days ago I came across your channel again with your recent videos. You’re so energetic and always with a smile on your face when you talk. I can tell you love what you do. Now I’m watching and going to watch all of your videos that’s made in Cambodia because that’s where I’m from. Thank you for all your inspiration and for helping and sharing your knowledge with the Cambodian people 🙏🏽😊
Hey big thanks, comments like these are very motivating! These videos are all-consuming side projects. I wish I had the time to create more. Hopefully one day! Having traveled to almost 80 countries, I can say Cambodia is a very fascinating and unique country, and I am grateful to be here. Many more videos on Cambodia and Phnom Penh coming soon! Best of luck!
Yeah man, i live in Jakarta, the car free day rocks, is crazy, people goes out to cycle, and you see kids around, and street food, you can walk an meet people, is very chill. Don't get me wrong, i love cars, but man, the traffic is hell. I feel like the city can breath. It's nice. Cool, man.
It's an interesting idea, but unfortunately humans don't like to take any "bottom-up" community action unless if it involves any practical action because we are too busy doing other shit. We all like to have big emotional experiences that validates privilege and it seems to many that the world is nothing but a problem to be solved by enthusiasm.
Yes, for sure, inspiring a bottom-up movement is extremely challenging, and yes, we are all a little distracted (myself included)... and it will take much more than a TH-cam video to pull this off. This video (...which is unfortunately far too long, big thanks if you made it to the end...) serves to introduce the concept and the bigger reasons behind it. Thankfully we already have a strong civil society presence in Phnom Penh who are already on board. To say is not possible, is wrong, for one, this type of event happens in several hundreds of cities annually. I have worked first-hand on similar projects in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (in 2017), which have been hugely successful... owing to a proactive government and civil society. This particular project has since inspired new urban design standards to improve the walking and cycling environment and is slowly transforming how people can get around in the city. If Addis Ababa can do it, for sure Phnom Penh can do it. Thanks for tuning in!
I have created a Facebook Group to plan and organise Car Free Day-related activities, see you there! facebook.com/groups/486210559467176

Oh, and I agree with the concept of Car-free day. I wish Cambodia can adopt this soon
Thank you very much. I hope your life can return to normal as soon as possible! 🙏
Fantastic video Conrad, you capture so well the issues facing the fast developing city and the energy needed to achieve sustainable and green growth.
Colin, what a pleasure to see you here!
