Professional Cambodian Translators in Asia

SARATT , CAMBODIAN TRANSLATOR

Born in 1979, year zero in the Cambodian history, after the collapse of the Pol Pot regime, Saratt was brought up in an average family, where both parents are in the medical industry (his dad is a doctor and his mum, a nurse). With very limited access to learning resources in such a situation, Saratt managed to overcome the obstacles he faced in school. He went on to further pursue his studies at the Faculty of Law and Economics (now known as Royal University of Law and Economics), with a Diploma in Banking. Thereafter, he received a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance and Banking at Build Bright University. To support his education, Saratt took on various part-time jobs during his varsity years: being an English teacher and a freelance translator. During that time, most of his freelance projects were concentrated in Phnom Penh. Saratt is a teacher now, providing professional development training on teaching methodology and translation skills. Up to this day, his passion for translation has not died down and he has continued with his translation career.
