Re: Chairman of National Assembly Ranariddh has some words for the US (mp3)

I am glad to hear that you have started moving the IT to Cambodia. I used
to work on MVS and AS400 (Cobol, JCL, and RPG) before we converted to the
PeopleSoft and I heard about CICS (Customer Information Control System) that
is a popular application sever of the IBM. Its architecture provides
environment that allows application written in Cobol, C, C++, Java. So CICS
may be a better solution for some businesses.



It is a little sad that the PeopleSoft was sold to the Oracle. But the
Oracle still continues supporting the PeopleSoft due to the license
agreement of their customers with the PeopleSoft. Our license agreement
lasts till the end of 2009. The good thing for us is that we are using the
Oracle platform, so it might not be a big challenge if we decide to stay
with the Oracle. We are now in the process of converting the Higher
Education system to a three-tier (web). The target is to go live in the end
of this year. Two years ago we upgraded the HR and last year we just
upgraded the Finance System.



Anyway, I'd like to wish you good luck with your project.
