The success in an entity, a department, an<br />
organization, or a company, it depends on the<br />
cooperation of all staff in working as a team, in<br />
taking responsibility of individual work and in<br />
understanding organizational goal, objective,<br />
services, products, and core value.<br />
For instance, <strong>Canadia</strong> <strong>Bank</strong> <strong>Plc</strong> is the local<br />
biggest and the first leader in Cambodia’s financial<br />
industry that has been operated its business since<br />
September 11 th , 1991 and it is also continually<br />
expanding branch networks year on year in order<br />
to respond to the customers’ actual needs and to<br />
take apart in accelerating the national economics<br />
and developing other social sectors. Currently,<br />
the bank has 42 nationwide provincial-municipal<br />
branch networks and several new branches will<br />
be opened soon. <strong>Canadia</strong> <strong>Bank</strong>’s Neak Loeung<br />
Branch is the 16 th branch which has been started<br />
its business since 2007 and is located at # 255-<br />
257, Phoum 4, PrekKsay (Kha) Commune, Peam<br />
Ro District, Prey Veng Province. Recently, Neak<br />
Loeung Branch’s staff have won the bronze medal<br />
of GSTP campaign (G=Greet, S=Smile, T=Thank<br />
You, and P=Personalize) which is a new strategy<br />
designed by the top management in an attempt to<br />
improve work knowledge, communication, staff’s<br />
behavior/attitude, and customers’ satisfaction<br />
with the bank’s products and services.<br />
GSTP is classified into three stages. The first<br />
stage award Bronze Medal with a cash reward of<br />
USD20 to staff that scores equal or higher than<br />
100. The second stage award Silver Medal with<br />
February 2013 No. 27<br />
a cash reward of USD100. The third stage award<br />
Gold Medal with a cash reward of USD500 and<br />
also award the branch USD500 to celebrate.<br />
For Neak Loeung Branch, the winning of<br />
Bronze Medals is resulted from the staff’s effort,<br />
especially the front line staffs that adhered to<br />
the campaign’s condition and were additionally<br />
advised during their daily work operation by Mr.<br />
Him Ratanak, Branch Manager, and Mr. Prum Hul,<br />
Deputy Branch Manager. Furthermore, there were<br />
some customers who wrote the compliment letter<br />
to admire staff that greeted with smiling, used the<br />
word “thank you” and treated the customers as<br />
individual by calling their name, such as uncle, aunt ,<br />
brother and sister, etc. GSTP is a good campaign for<br />
all staffs because it is used not only in workplace,<br />
but also in all circumstances such as to join any<br />
occasions in society, to show a company culture<br />
and to use in a family alike. It is also regarded as<br />
a country identity, a company culture and family.<br />
Three sentences mentioned that “Knowing a man<br />
by his moral and attitude, Knowing a person of<br />
wisdom from the word, Knowing an achiever by<br />
his implementation”.<br />
We, all staff of <strong>Canadia</strong> <strong>Bank</strong>’s Neak Loeung<br />
Branch, would like to express sincere thanks to<br />
all top management who have tried to initiate<br />
ideas and find new strategies in order to push<br />
up the overall <strong>Canadia</strong> <strong>Bank</strong> to grow even more<br />
and to satisfy all staff and bank’s customers as<br />
well; moreover, in order to make the <strong>Bank</strong> grows<br />
constantly and get intensive supports from either<br />
local or international customers as a standard and<br />
leader in Cambodia’s financial industry.<br />

Globalization brings various<br />
types of nationalities to work<br />
together for small, medium,<br />
and large-scaled<br />
enterprises. When these<br />
people are working in<br />
one organization, precise<br />
and authentic communication<br />
is very important,<br />
particularly during<br />
meetings, workshops,<br />
seminars and/or other<br />
key social activities. To fulfill<br />
these compulsory needs, both<br />
simultaneous and consecutive interpretation<br />
are exceedingly introduced and trained.<br />
Initiatively, Mr. Charles Vann, Executive Vice President<br />
of <strong>Canadia</strong> <strong>Bank</strong> <strong>Plc</strong>. has taken his valuable time to conduct<br />
a course on “Simultaneous and Consecutive Interpretation”<br />
last on 15 th February 2013, at the 2 nd floor<br />
training room of <strong>Canadia</strong> Tower, with 25 participants<br />
from different departments including Internal Audit,<br />
Marketing, IT, HR, Training and Development, Centralized<br />
Operations, Financial Control, Private <strong>Bank</strong>ing,<br />
Risk Management, CEO Office, EVP Office, Trade Service,<br />
Channels & Distributions, as well as SME department.<br />
This course was facilitated well by Mr. Tommy<br />
Boukhris, Project Manager of <strong>Canadia</strong> <strong>Bank</strong> <strong>Plc</strong>.<br />
At the very beginning, the participants were<br />
motivated by a game called “Message Relay”. They<br />
were divided into 2 groups, and were instructed to<br />
relay a message by allowing the first player to read the<br />
message (to be given by the speaker), and passing it<br />
verbally (whispering) unto the second player, and then<br />
up to the last player. The last player had to write down<br />
the whole sentence and read to the audience. After the<br />
game started for a few minutes, the messages were<br />
finally passed to the last member of each team, and<br />
they were presented to the audience. Both sentences<br />
contained few words that were not the same to the<br />
original versions. This reflected that the target person<br />
would get a different content/concept if the messenger<br />
or interpreter had interpreted the wrong message,<br />
which may lead to misunderstanding, and more<br />
seriously, having unsuccessful communication.<br />
More interestingly, a content-related video clip<br />
was shown to the audience. It was not only funny<br />
but also educational, that selecting an interpreter<br />
should be done in an effective manner; otherwise the<br />
communication would be misinterpreted and lead to<br />
unfavorable outcome. With this concern, interpreter’s<br />
background is very significant. And then, Mr.<br />
Charles Vann defined the two Forms of Interpretation.<br />
(1) Simultaneous<br />
– the interpreter sits in a booth wearing a pair of<br />
headphones and speaking into a microphone and<br />
(2) Consecutive<br />
– the speaker stops every 1-5 minutes (usually at the<br />
end of every “paragraph” or a complete thought)<br />
and the interpreter then steps in to render what<br />
was said into the target language. He also pointed<br />
out the advantages of the interpretation at<br />
workplace.<br />
To be well connected with the content of the lesson,<br />
another video clip was played. It was about the Top 10<br />
Interpretation/Translation Tips:<br />
(1) Familiarize yourself with the culture from which the<br />
language you are interpreting originates<br />
(2) Study vocabulary words for both languages<br />
consistently<br />
(3) Read, write, and research/study the language<br />
extensively<br />
(4) Have the skill in wielding the language<br />
(5) Take notes and study the subject matter in which<br />
you will be required to translate or interpret<br />
(6) Practice good communication and customer service<br />
skills<br />
(7) Be careful with colloquial expressions and puns<br />
(8) Beware of expansion and contraction factors<br />
(9) Take into legal and cultural differences<br />
(10) Get in-depth knowledge of the relevant field(s)<br />
Afterwards, the participants enjoyed the last video<br />
clip prepared by the trainer and facilitator. It was mainly<br />
about the characteristics of being a good interpreter,<br />
particularly, the posture of the interpreter during the<br />
interpretation. Note taking is a compulsory skill for a<br />
qualified interpreter. How to Take Notes Effectively?<br />
First of all, instead of trying to copy every word, use key<br />
words and invent abbreviations or even better, symbols<br />
that represent some words or ideas; for example, a<br />
cross can represent a church. Everyone could use their<br />
own personal symbols;<br />
the most important thing<br />
is to remember instantly<br />
what it means upon<br />
seeing the symbol. It is<br />
also useful to use a small<br />
ring-binded notebook,<br />
like the ones we used in<br />
schools, because they are<br />
26 February 2013 No. 27
very manageable. Write only on one side of the page, it<br />
is faster, and when the first half of the notebook is full,<br />
we can always turn it round and start using the other<br />
side.<br />
To be more realistic for the trainees, two examples<br />
of making inaccurate Interpretation/Translation on<br />
Politics and on Business (<strong>Bank</strong>ing Industry) were clearly<br />
presented and explained by the trainer. In relation to<br />
the actual situation of the interpretation process, he<br />
guided how the interpreters should stand, by inviting<br />
four participants to the front.<br />
Lastly, the training was concluded by the useful and<br />
inspirational recommendation of Mr. Charles Vann.<br />
He encouraged all participants to be actively involved<br />
in any form of translation/interpretation and conduct<br />
more researches by way of doing interpretation. He<br />
also positively stated that Simultaneous/Consecutive<br />
Interpretation Course should be conducted more in<br />
order to strengthen the capacity of the personnel on<br />
both simultaneous and consecutive interpretation;<br />
to enhance safe and sound communication; to make<br />
faster and smoother flow of discussion during meeting,<br />
workshop, and seminar; that would make high outcome<br />
and productivity to be more achievable.<br />

A good credit risk<br />
management starts with<br />
our first line of defense (our<br />
front liners), doing proper<br />
assessment on the credit<br />
worthiness of a borrower. Below<br />
provides an overview of the six Cs that should be<br />
utilized by Loan Officers, Branch Managers and<br />
credit related personnel to assess customers’<br />
credit risk levels at its early stages.<br />
1. Character - Character refers to the<br />
behavior of the customers. Character influences<br />
the customer’s ability to repay back the loan.<br />
Thus, Loan Officers need to carefully study the<br />
customers’ character to further identify whether<br />
they have good reputations among their peers.<br />
Due diligence specified in the Credit Policy and<br />
Procedures Manual is the preliminary step to credit<br />
initiation. The Due Diligence process essentially<br />
involves three steps:<br />
- Step One: Customer/potential borrower<br />
interview (data gathering)<br />
- Step Two: Credit Appraisal (CA) Write-up<br />
(risk analysis)<br />
- Step Three: Collateral verification (verification<br />
and valuation)<br />
2. Capital- Capital is the customers’ assets which<br />
could be utilized to repay back the loan when it<br />
falls due. Thereby, Loan Officers need to diligently<br />
assess the total value of the customers’ capital<br />
along with the amount of loan to be requested.<br />
This is to ensure that, in the event that the loan<br />
falls due, the customers could sell this capital to<br />
repay back the loan.<br />
3. Capacity - Capacity is the customers’ ability<br />
to repay back the loan. Loan Officers would study<br />
different things with different types of businesses<br />
and individuals. However, in general, Loan Officers<br />
would thoroughly study the earnings and spending<br />
of customers to solicit their ability to repay back<br />
the loan. The financial ratios are utilized to assist<br />
in this process.<br />
4. Collateral - Collateral is the type of assets<br />
that customers use to pledge to the bank prior to<br />
receiving loans. Analysis must include location,<br />
size, title owner, and connection with the third<br />
party, good selling advantages of the location<br />
or building, estimated value, marketability,<br />
the original documents of the<br />
collateral property, photograph,<br />
family book, ID card and<br />
connection/relationship with the<br />
neighbors, authorities or police for<br />
additional information.<br />
In economic downturn, the value of<br />
these collaterals would depreciate which increase<br />
the percentage of potential loss to the company<br />
shall the loans default. Hence, proper haircut and<br />
stress test should be adopted and results should<br />
be reported to the risk management committee<br />
for contingency planning and informative decisionmaking<br />
purposes.<br />
5. Condition - Condition refers to external<br />
conditions that potentially lead to an adverse<br />
impact on the firm’s ability to generate earnings<br />
or operate business. Factors that are considered<br />
to determine the firm’s conditions include but<br />
not limited to economic, political and war that<br />
can result in losses or severe impact on the firm’s<br />
earnings stability and operating performance.<br />
6. Control - Control is the procedure utilized<br />
after loans have been given to customers. Loan<br />
Officers are responsible for reviewing the condition<br />
of the loans annually on or before the loans term<br />
to maturity. The annual review includes analytics<br />
on the five Cs described above. Any extension of<br />
credits, a new CA must be re-written and submitted<br />
to the Credit Committee for approval.<br />
