Now the New 7 Wonders community & Foundation, based in Switzerland, has launched the internet voting principles to pick seven, surrounded by other, wonders of the world. Indeed, having access to internet, I have voted Angkor Wat (the world's biggest Hindu temple, located in Siem Reap province, Cambodia. And this temple has all the time been one of the Seven Wonders of the World) as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Unfortunately, I have seen the internet voting principles to pick the Seven Wonders of the World is unmistakably unjust for Cambodia [and other poor nations].
Stated by the World Bank, Cambodia is one of the poorest countries in the world, as well as in the region. The term "one of the poorest" means that only a so-called mini portion of the population has access to internet, information, language and other communal services and facilities. And simply, the term poor means low education or illiteracy. In Cambodia, surrounded by the twenty-four provinces, only Phnom Penh that has easy access to internet. The internet access in Sihanoukville and Siem Reap is quite high-priced and very slow.
News From Cambodia
Comparing to the United States of America, Spain, Italy, Great Britain, Australia and other countries that have one of the listed wonders of the world, Cambodia is nothing in comparison to these countries. Population, poverty, education figure, internet access, language are the evidence that the internet voting principles of the http://www.n7w.com is totally unjust. Internet is high-priced in Cambodia, comparing with curiosity of the Cambodian people; the consequent already seems to be decided.
The consequent is already seen if "majority" is the method of selection. However, I hope the world selects the Seven Wonders of the World on the basis of reality.
This narrative would serve as the message to the world to consider the way to pick the Seven Wonders of the World.
