Motivation Letter
Dear
Sir/Madam,
With this letter I hereby wish to sincerely express my interest in applying for master
degree program in Urban Planning. This program is a solid step towards my future
career as a designer, researcher and consultant who understands the problems
and solutions in urban areas of developing counties, especially Cambodia.
Phnom Penh Capital is becoming the only major center that absorbs labor influx
from different provinces, and its area has more than doubled from 300 sq.km in early
2000s to nearly 700 sq.km in 2014. Challenges are now facing the local authority
including; the demand for housing for lower and rising middle income groups, water
supply and sanitation, congestion, environmental pollution (air, open source water
and ground water), flooding due to prolong heavy rain. Climate change has
increasingly added additional burden to the Capital in terms of adaptation and
resilient infrastructure. The rapid urbanization and construction growth are one of the
major concerns on the decline of open space thus limiting the accessibility among
local communities to enjoy the city.
Your faithfully,
Oy Sideth
