As the computer and internet industry gains influence and an increased market in Cambodia, many types of Khmer fonts have been developed but most of them were not developed by using Unicode nor meet the guidelines of the Unicode Standards. However, all of these fonts have been widely utilized with word processing, such as Word in Microsoft Office. Because many of these fonts were neither developed using Unicode Standards nor adopted by makers of World Wide Web (WWW) browsers, many Khmer fonts were not readable without special library drivers. Khmer Unicode complied with these standards.
To assist NGOs in improving their daily work and adopt latest technologies, the CCC, in partnership with Open Institute and with support from World Forge Foundation, conducted training in 5 workshops on ‘Khmer Unicode and Open Office’. While each workshop took two days, all the training was conducted in Phnom Penh and benefited 56 staff of CCC’ member organizations and 12 staff of Provincial NGO Networks.
Furthermore, CCC is also in the process of digitizing its resources centre and rebuilding its website aiming at making e-information accessing, exchanging and sharing more and more paperless.
