Through my working experience, I have been working as a full-time government official of the Department of Training and Research, the Ministry of Rural Development, Cambodia. The functions of my work place and the services provided are to alleviate national poverty and to improve rural people’s living standard. Currently, The Ministry of Rural Development in cooperation with development partners has promoted rural sanitation and hygiene services by launching many projects aiming to achieve Cambodian Millennium Development Goals (CMDGs) that by 2015, 50% of rural population have access to water supply and 30% of them have access to household latrines. In line with this Millennium Development Goal, a research study was conducted to examine the rural people’s preferences for latrine and their knowledge about good sanitation and proper hygiene. Moreover, the people’s WTP for improved latrine and the factors affecting their choices were also determined in this study. This study has established a baseline data which could be used for improved sanitation services in Cambodia and it is also used as my master thesis at Kyushu University, Japan.
