Priscilla Kim Ong 🇰🇭 ‘Sela’ សិលា

So honored to be recognized and considered a Woman of the Future of Southeast Asia for my work as a Content Creator and Founder of @selarati, being a cultural bridge for the Khmer diaspora and creating experiences for Koun Khmer to reconnect with our motherland of Cambodia, in community 🇰🇭

Just 5 women across Southeast Asia were shortlisted for the @womenoffuture Media & Communications category, and I was one of them, representing Cambodia🥹

Beyond this individual honor, I’m so proud of my country and people🇰🇭

Of all Southeast Asian countries, Cambodia had the highest number of women shortlisted across the different award categories, ranging from Business, ESG/Sustainability, Science, Tech & Digital to Media, Arts & Culture, Sport, Community Service and more.

Our country is full of trailblazing women driving unique positive change in various areas, and this year 14 Cambodian women, including myself, have become finalists in their respective fields.

To think about how much we’ve grown and risen from the ashes of our painful history. Forever proud to be Khmer🇰🇭

Next month, I’ll travel to Singapore to attend the Awards Gala to find out the results! (It’s giving Oscars moment✨🥹)

Either way, it’s an honor to be nominated and an honor to be a finalist.

Thank you to my fiancé @joeyra for nominating me.
Thank you to those who recommended me.
Thank you to all of you who have supported me in my entire journey.

ស្រឡាញ់បងប្អូនទាំងអស់គ្នា❤️
