Dozens of Cambodian students joined Ambassador Heidt as he tried his hand at computer programming during the Hour Of Code, a week-long event to encourage young people from around the world to learn more about computer science.
"Coding is the basis for great American companies like Google and Facebook," the Ambassador said. "Cambodians are very clever and creative, and this is an area of great opportunity for young people and this country."
The Ambassador was joined by students from IT Step Academy Cambodia and Technovation Cambodia.
The Hour of Code occurs during Computer Science Education Week, which is held from December 5-11.
