Departing for Phka Sammki Alabama

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

I would like to wish a safe trip and a wonderful time to some of the Khmer Krom members who will be travelling to Mobile, Alabama to attend their Phka Sammki.  I visited them at our temple before they departed at about 8am and we are all proud of eachother of our merits! I hope that we can only continue to do better and contribute more for the common good of the Khmer Krom community in Atlanta. Mr. Son Ngoc Tri, Mr. Lam En, Mr. Tang Khinh, Mr. Cao Rinh, and our president and vice-president Trinh Tran and Saroum Tang respectively raised about $700 for the Khmer Krom temple in Alabama.
