Yesterday which was Saturday, I myself, went to joined a group of Cambodian students at UNSW (University of New South Waltes) located just 10 minute bus from where i am living.
CSAS is chairmaned by BONG SEN, who is BONG HOK's brother along with many other Cambodian students who are currently doing either their Bachelor or Master degree here in Sydney. The gathering started from 12PM-6PM; from 12PM-2PM we had a BBQ party along with Cambodian traditional music, from 2PM-2:30PM the chairman, BONG SEN, had a little speech about the purpose of the gathering; the main purpose of the gathering is to group Cambodian students who are currently studying in Sydney together to form an association, in order to, raise fund and try to help located places and schools in Cambodia that are lack of resources for research purposes. However, to form an association, a minimum of 50-60 associated members must be had, and the problem was that only about 40 students came yesterday, but a good beginning though. So hopefully, there will be more Cambodian students joining us to form the association some time in the foreseeable future to contribute whatever we can to the society, that have nurtured us to who we are now.
Finally, there will be upcoming events and parties which will be taken place soon in the upcoming month.
