Kong Pharith, a former math and physics teacher from Kampong Chhnang province, uses his knowledge to successfully come up with a solar-energy-powered car.
The sound that was heard earlier was a trial attempt to move a car powered by solar energy and it was a first time that such a car is found in Cambodia. The car is the work of a former math and physics teacher from Kampong Chhnang province. Kong Pharith is this native teacher of Kampong Chhnang.
For the idea to come up with such a car, Kong Pharith, who is currently the chairman of the Able Builder Organization and also chairman of the Phnom Penh-based Intelligent Planning Center, indicated that, prior to coming up with this vehicle, he spent about 6 months researching for the right formula. His solar-energy car attempt comes at the heel of his invention of the solar-energy powered bicycle which he was also successful last year.
He added that for the solar-energy powered car, he used second-hand parts and assembled them together before adding solar energy cell battery and motor.
