Lao Focus Group, story 1
R:
Well, the story that you mentioned earlier, that’s one of them that I grew up with.
Another one is I believe what do you call the ten . . .
Moderator: Is it the—for the temple?
R:
No, no, no. There was a king challenging all the, you know.
R:
Other kingdoms?
R:
Yeah, the kingdoms to who can have the wealth that equals to ten mount. So they can
marry the daughter—I mean, the princess. That always been stuck in my head and of course,
some other folklores or ghost stories that always scared me, but it’s also funny too.
Moderator: Okay.
R:
But that particular one.
Moderator: So what’s the name of that one?
R:
I’m not sure. This is an old one, so I would have to ask the older generation. . . . Yes.
The king challenging all the warriors and whatnot, you know, he’s dying and he’s in need of—I
mean, the kingdom in need of another successor.
Moderator: Okay.
R:
And so the king put a flyer or whatever, announced, saying that whoever come up here,
ten mount of gold.
Moderator: Mm-hmm, and is it just a mount like a mountain?
R:
Yeah, mountain, . . .
Moderator: You know how the plane of jars where they have these big sort of vats?
R:
Well, in our country, we have—what do you call, the termites mound? It’s that big. So
each one—there was ten of them in there, so nobody has it. So [Simeon] had an idea and he’d
come up with—he went to get gold coins and place on the mound. So in the end, I mean, I’m
cutting story short, but I’m pretty sure the story that—I’m spoiling the story here—the older
generation can tell better. But basically, that’s what stuck in my head.
Moderator: Mm-hmm.
R:
So Simeon, long story short here, he placed all the gold into the ten mounds and then he
solved the riddle of what the king placed. So the moral of the story is, you know, he’s very
creative in his idea and he won the riddles. He won the challenge.
Moderator: Okay.
�R:
So it’s encourage, envision, motivation type of story for me and I always think of that
every time I’m coming to a challenge of something. I always place that story in saying, you
know, it’s not how you look at the problem. I mean, it’s not—the size of the problem, that’s
what I’m trying to say. It’s how you look at it and how you handle the problem. That’s always
been my . . .
Moderator: You can just say it in Lao and then we’ll get it translated.
R:
Okay, okay, yeah. Something like that.
R:
Mm-hmm.
Moderator: So this is one of the Simeon folktales that he grew up with and that he—is one
of his favorites.
Moderator: And so it’s another trickster story. How many Simeon folktales or trickster
stories are there?
R:
Oh, hundreds. Hundreds.
Moderator: So depending on which story you remember of you hear?
R:
Yeah.
Moderator: So there’s a collection of them?
R:
Yeah.

STORY 1
A Little Girl
She’s four years old. She live with old lady when the parent out, go to work.
I’m going to work and she live with old people, and she go around the block, pick up all the . . .
make . . . short stick and the wood for . . . The fire, when they cook rice in a big, big frying pan
and give to them. And they give her that, you know, under the part, like . . . the crust, or the
bottom of the cooked rice.
And what she’d get, a piece like that and she bring to give the boy when they bring the rice on
their head. The whole by the boy, put away the part where they cut underneath. That gets put
away. And when they’re hungry and get a piece here, a piece here, all there, and have one little
piece left in hand. And the brother wanted no more because he . . . all away. Because the whole .
. . and he eat it, eat her finger and bites her finger and bleeding and she cry. And what they do?
The soldiers who see it cry. “Tell her to stop crying,” because it hurt so bad. She just . . . and
shaking. And they put her in the bag of rice and hang her in . . .
And . . . she pass out in their . . . When I come back from work, here my daughter hang up
there, and they tell me. And the people, the . . . , they whistle and the soldier, they ran past and
one of the soldier, they love her also when they live there. Take her out and give to me, he . . .
And I thought she was going to die. It was just so hard.
STORY 2
Hate Poop, Ride Elephant.
So he [hate] the poop and then he wants to ride on an elephant.
that says Hate Poop, Ride Elephant. Hate the lawsuits, climb the top of the palm tree.
In Khmer, it’s rhymes.
Because in Cambodia, you will see only palm trees. They cut out the trees and you see only palm
trees.
They hate the lawsuits and they . . . And instead, they go to hide themselves. He or she, I don’t
know what’s that, sorry. Hide himself or herself on top of the palm tree. So because he doesn’t
want to argue or get into quarrel or go get into lawsuit with anyone, I would like to go and live
myself on top of the tree, the palm tree. And there’s nothing for me to work, to do. And then I
have a small sickle. I cut a palm frond to make a basket. And then while I’m making that, I build
a basket, I’m thinking about stories. And when I make those beautiful, lovely basket of palm
frond I can sell those baskets and then buy some chickens. And when I raise these chickens with
some big chickens, I can earn some money, and then I will sell those chickens and I will buy a
small cow or an ox. And when I raise these ox or cows to be bigger, and then I can sell it, and
then I can hire a slave or a servant. And then if I order him or her to do the work and then he is
lazy and doesn’t listen to me, I will kick him or her. So that’s in his brain.
He’s thinking. And when he think the actions like out of his hand and then he fell out the top of
1
�the palm tree. And then he fell on the rice field.
Okay, so it’s like the palm frond is like this, like a coconut tree. And then while he fell down,
like his conscious coming to his mind. He just grabbed hold of some small frond and then he just
hang, dangle over there. When he fall, if he let go of this frond, he would die when he fall. So
he’s just hanging himself there. And now, we just postponed the story for a while, and then we
are talking about another guy who hate the poop and then he ride an elephant. Because in
Cambodia, they go out and about doing it in the open, like in India. They can open . . . And then
he hate walking and his feet on the poop. So he ride on the elephant so he stay away from those
poops or excrement.
And then while riding on the elephant and the elephant walk below, the guy hanging
himself with the palm frond up there, that guy up there say, “Help me! Help me!” And then that
guy on the elephant stands up and then he stand on the elephant’s head, and then grabbed the feet
of that guy or that girl, I’m not sure. And then the guy up there just shake himself because he fear
himself falling down but while this guy grabbed hold of his feet. And then this guy shakes the
elephant’s head and the elephant thought that, “Oh, this guy ordered me to walk.” And then the
elephant walks. And then now, you see these two guys hanging themselves for dear life with the
palm frond. And now the elephant is gone and two gentlemen or ladies up there. And now the
question is whether these two gentlemen or ladies can stay away from poop or not.
Well, they can escape poop and they can escape lawsuits. Do you think those two people are able
to escape the things that they’re afraid of?
So the top man or top woman is so afraid, so fearful, and then you know that the [sphincters] let
loose, like physically everything’s loose when you are afraid of something. And then the loose
stool come down . . .
And it drop down on the one that’s . . .
And then now the poop drop down on the head of the bottom one who hate the poop so much.
So during the cliffhanging, four men or women walk by. And these two gentlemen or ladies yell,
“Help me! Help us!” And then these four men or women, I’m not sure, ask how can we help?
Four, four. Now, these two men or women ask the four men and women to bring a scarf and then
grab hold of each corner.
A blanket. In Cambodia, we don’t have blanket. We have scarf. We have scarf like this one, but
not beautiful as this one. Cambodian, we have scarf.
Yeah, so they ordered these four people to grab hold of each corner and then stay below. So the
top guy or top person let go of the palm frond.
And then drop into . . . Onto the scarf.
And now you think these four hit each other’s heads and die. The four die.
They don’t care about these four person who die, but these two people sue each other. Because
the bottom one sue, “You poop on my head!” So now, in conclusion, the one who hates the poop
and riding the elephant got sued by the guy up there. And then the guy up there who hate lawsuit
got sued again by this guy.
MORAL: So he said that it’s you are thinking too much and you try to avoid. You are thinking
too much, try to avoid everything. But still, you cannot avoid everything. Yeah.
2
�Just a lawsuit, just a general lawsuit. So he goes up into the palm tree to get away from all the
lawsuits. And as he is thinking, he’s like, “You know, as I'm thinking here, I'm going to make the
basket to weave from the palms. And then I can sell that. And then I’ll get a chicken. And then
the chicken will let me afford to buy an ox. An ox will afford me to buy a servant, and if the
servant doesn’t work, I'm going to kick him,” and then ahh, he falls down. And as he falls down,
he grabs on to the tree, and he’s hanging by the palm leaves, and meanwhile—it’s just like dundun-dun. So meanwhile, this guy who hates to step on the poop everywhere, is riding the head of
the elephant to avoid the poop. Comes along this guy, dangling from the leaf, saying, “Help me.
Help me.” And so, he’s like, “Okay. I’ll stand on top of the elephant’s head and I’ll try to get you
down.” While he’s doing that, he stepped on the elephant, and the elephant thinks the movement
means to go, so the elephant goes. And now they have two men dangling by the thread, as the
other one, the Mr. “I'm afraid of lawsuit,” is afraid of what’s happening next. And then that’s
when he poops his pants, right? And poops on top of the guy who hates the poop. And then four
people come and they’re like, “Help us. Help us. We’re dangling here by the palm.”
This is where we can alter and so they can take their scarf and tie it together for them to
jump down. They can jump down safely, landed safely. The guys are okay, and then they go and
sue each other.
..
Oh, you want the four people to live? So the four people tie their scarves around to give a safe
place to jump down. So those two men come down. The man who hates the poop and the man . .
.
Sues the guy.
The guy who hates the lawsuit.
And that’s the end of the story.
And then moral, the line say, you cannot avoid anything.
[OMITTED SNAIL AND RABBIT STORY]
STORY 3
Allejo the trickster
Once upon a time, there was a couple. And these two, the mother and the father never get along
with each other very well. And they end up living separately. And then this couple, during the
time they live together, they have one young boy. So when the mother and father live separately
these Allejo . . . when you say Allejo in Cambodia everyone knows.
He’s an orphan.
The trickster. Allejo mean trickster, the name of the young boy. That is Allejo. And then this
young boy, Allejo, got sent to live in the pagoda or the temple. While living in the temple or
pagoda, that young boy think about the very favorite snack that he love to eat. And then he think,
he set up a plan to get his mother and father remarried in order to eat the cakes, whatever the
favorite snack. Because when you get married in Cambodia or Laos or Vietnam, they will
organize a big feast. And then he will and that his favorite snack like the Turkish delight. And
then the snack, I don’t know, I forgot the name of the snack.
Go to mother.
So first step, that young boy got out from the temple or pagoda to meet his mother living over

Yang: So recently we got some story we read back to them again in different version.
There was one story I recently remember. Is about, this family who have a servant who is a
man. He worked really hard, and he happened to love, fall in love with the daughter of that
man. And because of the differences, he wouldn't want to marry his daughter to this poor
guy. But he make a promise to him, "Hey when you work hard, when you plug enough I will
let you marry my daughter." So, the servant, he believed him so he worked really hard. And
until the time to get married, he arranged marriage his daughter with another rich family.
Yang: story 1
And to keep this guy, he's asking him to say, "Hey, wedding tomorrow, but now you
have to do one last thing. You have to go to the forest and find a bamboo tree with a
hundred blocks." And he went to the woods and tried to find, there were so many of them
he couldn't find any of them a hundred pieces. So he was crying, and over here they getting
the party ready for marry.
One of the, fairy came over him while he was crying and asked him, "Why you cry?"
"I am trying to find this bamboo tree, so I can go back and get married." The fairy said,
"Well why don't you do this, you find 100 pieces of bamboo" and then he give you a secret
word so when he say "come back", everything will connect to a long bamboo. And he tried
to carry that long thing around, again and he couldn't get it, it was so long so he cry again.
The fairy say, "Okay well, I'll give you another one, break up to a hundred pieces, collect
them all and go back home." He came back home, and he found they were getting ready for
marriage.
Everybody came out, mocking him, "I told you to get a long bamboo tree now you
leave me a hundred piece of bamboo." He said, "Well I'll show you." He said, "They connect,
the all connect to a long bamboo tree." And this family they were like, "Oh okay, well, but I
don't want to marry my daughter to you anyway." And he said, "Okay, connect." And
everybody in their family stick to the tree. And they end up have to let him marry their
daughter. So, yeah it's a story about, you know [crosstalk].
Phan: In Vietnam too. They were Tan, T-A-N, not my name.
Phan: story 1
Speaker 1:
Her name is Tan?
Speaker 1:
She supported the family?
Phan: Tan. She was really poor. Her mom passed away. Her father got married with
another one, so she got step mother. Her step mother doesn't love her, so she designates a
lot of chores and a lot of work for Tan to work, to do, while her step-sister doesn't do
anything. She did everything in the house, and even she work out a lot, work out her family
to have goods, and everything, but ...
�Phan: She supported the family, and she didn't have enough clothes to wear, but she had
good heart. She was so helpful, and she were willing to help everyone, so everyone loved
her a lot. Somehow whenever she got a difficult situation, the old man, like a fairy, appear
and help her every time.
Her mom, her step mom and her step-sister were really angry because when she
grows up, she looks so beautiful, even though she doesn't have good outwear, she doesn't
have good clothes at all, but she still looks so beautiful. But they feel competitive with her.
They figure out many ways to kill her, but they were unsuccessful. One day when the prince
wanted to get married with a girl, give out a lot of competition so that the beautiful girls can
go and have a competition if they can show that they are beautiful, they are skillful, the
prince may get married with him.
The step mother and the step-sister didn't want them to go to the competition
because they knew that if she come she will win. So they figure out some way to prevent
her from coming. They made a lot of work, a lot of chores so that she didn't have enough
time to finish, and then she can't.
But with the help of a lot of creatures around, like the mouses, the mice, what else ...
the fairy appear and help her. They helped her to finish the chores, and I remember really
hard chores take a lot of time for her. They mess up the rice, the beans ...
Speaker 1:
And the grains.
Phan: The grain. She was gonna separate one by one. That's a lot, but the birds came and
helped her out.
Speaker 1:
So they are animals?
Phan: Yeah, a lot of animals come and help her out with those. She didn't have good
clothes to the party, to the competition.
They make magic, the fairy. But in our tradition, in our [inaudible], it's not a girl
fairy, it's an old man fairy appear and help her. It's similar.
Speaker 1:
Very similar.
Phan: She's supposed to get back before midnight. If she didn't get back before midnight,
everything gonna turn back, the clothes, the high heel is gonna turn back. The magic is not
gonna affect after midnight. Before midnight, she remembered that and then she run back,
but she forgot her shoe, a small shoe.
So the prince got that shoe, and he noticed that whoever can fit that shoe is gonna be
his wife. Then only [inaudible] matched the shoe, so the prince chose her to be his wife, to
be the queen. But the story didn't stop there.
Cinderella did like that, but in our version, when she became the queen, she gets
back to her house, on the death day, the anniversary of her father is really important day in
our tradition. So she come back, she helps out and she gets ready to offer a lot of food to her
�fathers spirit. Her step mother asked her to climb up to the tree, the tall tree to get
something, to get a fruit to offer her father spirit. When she was climbing up to the tree,
they cut down the root of the tree, she dies.
She dies, and then she became a bird, and fly back to the palace. At that time, the
step mother replaced her daughter, her step-sister, to go to the palace to become the queen.
But the prince at that time, he didn't care about Tan, that sister. He still missed her a lot.
Speaker 1:
It's sad.
Phan: It's so sad. Then the bird flew back to the palace. When her step-sister were doing
something, were trying the clothes for the prince, the bird appear and say something like,
“When you wash my husband clothes, remember to wash it clearly, and never hang it up on
the fence. It's gonna damage my husband clothes.” And the prince heard that, and the
prince know somehow the bird is his old past life. He really loved the bird. He kept the bird
with him in a cage. And then her step-sister was envious, and figured out a way to kill the
bird.
Later, the bird with the help of ... I forgot that thing, but later, with the fairy help, the
bird spirit become Tan again, and they got a happy life. The prince, who intended to give
sentence to the step mother and step-sister because of their bad deeds. There's two ending.
So the first ending, Tan asked the prince to forgive them. So she was so good, she
wants to forgive them, she doesn't want to do harm for them. And the second version, there
is ... but I don't like this version ending, they say after she got back, and have a happy life
with the prince, the step mother and step-sister still feel angry, and they ask her how can
you get the white skin, so beautiful skin like that? And then Tan say, “Sit in a hole, half the
body, pour boiling water, and you will get nice skin.”
At that time I said, “Wow, that's weird.” because Tan have good heart, so she didn't
do like that. But because it is a fairytale, some people want to get some kind of ending to
punish the bad people so that it exist two kinds of ending. But I like the first one better.
Phan: Yeah, language. We come from a fairy, and a dragon. When they get married with
each other ...
Phan: story 2
Speaker 1:
The origin of the country?
Phan: Yeah, the origin of the country. So the fairy got pregnant, and she gave birth to 100
children. And later they know that the drag and the fairy cannot live with each other longer,
forever. So they separated. 50 children followed the father to go to the mountain, and 50
others followed mom to go to the [delta]. So that's why nowadays, the 50 children gave

Beatrice Lao
Beatrice:
Oh I discovered it as an adult. It was given to me my first year in law school
by a friend and it's The Little Prince. I have read it probably at least 30 times and I have
read it with my nieces and nephews and IStory 1
Speaker 1:
I haven't read it.
Beatrice:
-give it to everybody every kid who I come across as a gift.
Speaker 1:
That's the gist.
Speaker 1:
Why do you like The Little Prince?
Beatrice:
I like The Little Prince I think at the time it inspired me when I went to law
school 'cause I felt really out of place and the story of The Little Prince is a little prince who
lived in a tiny little planet who tended to a rose and he decided one day to explore the
universe outside of his planet and he was very scared and he met all kinds of people met a
king, he met a drunkard, he met a geographer and he in the end even though he went out to
discover what he thought was a very strange, intimidating world, he learned he was very
enriched by it and he still wanted to go back to his planet to be with his rose. There's more
to it than that but-
Beatrice:
-that story that story stuck with me and it's something that I share with other
people especially young people.
Speaker 1:
That's great 'cause as you were talking 'cause my mom would say that's what
Buddha was, he was a prince who went out to explore the world.
Beatrice:
Oh that's right yes, [inaudible 00:07:53] yeah, yeah that's right yeah. I hadn't
thought of that yeah.
Speaker 1:
It's similar right to all of those trials and tribulations but you go back to
yourself yeah so I never I'm going to have to read that.
Beatrice:
Oh yeah 'cause there's so many stories out there but that one definitely-

Chanthone Seng interview
Jun: My father and mother told me stories about ... A person who was a tiger, they took
the skin of the tiger and wore it as a ... Taking the skin of the tiger and put it on the shirts.
Prints of the tiger on the shirt. So they said long time ago that the people who put the pieces
of the skin of the tiger onto their shirts end up becoming a tiger.
Story 1
Jun:
The one that is about the young lady that smells like a flower.
Story 2
Jun:
No. The hair that smells nice. So she was born with beautiful-smelling hair.
Interviewer: Why do you like that story?
Jun: Because it's a story about the mother that was ... She was an orphan. Her mother and
father died, and she had to take care of herself. And she has one child. So that's what
happened.
Jun: She had to go and forage for food in the forest. So she searched for mushrooms and
bamboos and plants so that she could eat.
Interviewer: Because and why do you like that story?
Jun: It helps people understand to be patient and persevere ... like a survivor. Resilient.
So that they can learn how to find food and survive in the jungle.
Jun: There's a story about the family that had seven kids. The mother and father are poor
and they don't have money. So they let the kids go and let them live in the forest. So now
they turned into gorillas in the jungle and they're not human. So they finally were able to
farm and get some food so that they went back to get their kids. But the kids have all grown
hairy. They no longer know how to speak like humans. So the mom and dad cried because
they've lost their children. So they would get food and throw it at the bottom of the tree
where their children, who are now monkeys, live. And that's the end of the story.
Story 3
Jun: The second story I would tell you is the story about the girl who was born with the
pretty-smelling hair. The mom and dad birthed a beautiful daughter that had long, flowing
hair that smelled very beautiful. They don't have much money so they collected charcoal to
sell. They would sell the charcoal to buy food and water, or nourishment for their one
daughter.
Story 4
Jun: The daughter went to school, but one day the mother and father died, and then she
was left alone by herself to grow up alone. So she did what her parents did. She went and
foraged in the forest and found food to eat there and found charcoal to sell to make a living.
�Jun: But one day she had a child, and then the villagers would ask, "This is strange, how
can a woman have a child without the father? Where is the father?" The mother had a
secret. The child would ask, "Where's my father?" as she was growing up. As she grew up,
the mother kept the secret of her father's heritage until she was growing old and almost
about to die.
Jun: Her daughter was 18 years old when she told him. So she started this story. So she's
dying and so she tells the daughter that, "When I was younger I went to the forest and I
drank from this water fountain that was a magical water fountain." The water was a hot
spring that came from the rock." So when she drank from the springs that came from the
rock, she became pregnant with the daughter. When she was there by herself, there was no
human. "There was just an elephant. It was the king of the wild elephants. So if you wanna
know your father, go into the forest where there is the water from the rock, and you will
find your father."
Jun: She said that the father was in the mountains by the rock side. So she went there
and she saw this elephant who was sleeping there. So she asked him, "Are you my father?"
The elephant replied, "When were you my child? When did I beget you?" She told the story
about what her dying mother said, saying that she had come here and that when she drank
the water she saw no one. So she said, "Yes, you're right. I did pee on that rock and your
mother drank my pee."
Interviewer: Oh, God.
Jun: So the elephant is gonna test her to see if he's the real daughter. "So the test to see
whether you're my child or not," said the king elephant, "is I need for you to walk out into
that ledge and cross between these two rocks. Between the two rocks is a cliff that falls. A
true daughter of mine can walk over the rocks without falling over. But if you're not my
daughter, you'll fall over to your death."
Jun: So she was able to walk over to the other side of the rock cliff. So that validated that
yes, he was her father. Then she just stayed and lived with her father for the rest of her
years.
Interviewer: So why do you want that story known?
Jun: This is a story about the heritage and to know where you're coming from. So you
never forget your father. Never forget who your father is. It's like your DNA. The story of
your heritage, where you come from, from your father and your mother. So the father took
care of her. So this is the story to tell children to remember who their parents are and who
takes care of them.

�Overview of Project
We are Minjeong Kim, Allyssa McCabe, and Phitsamay Uy, professors
at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, who have long had independent
interests in collecting folktales from diverse cultures. We all teach at the
University of Massachusetts in Lowell, Massachusetts, which is home to
numerous immigrant and refugee communities, including many individuals
from Cambodia, Viet Nam, Burma, and Laos. We noted the lack of reading
materials representative of those cultures and decided to rectify that. We
received a Creative Economy Grant from the University of Massachusetts
President's office to collaborate with the Southeast Asian community-based
organizations in Lowell (Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association, Saydanar, Thong Phamduy & the Vietnamese Language School, Wat Buddhabhavana) to collect folktales from those four community groups. Professional
illustrators and art students from the university illustrated the folktales. This
book is the result of our collective efforts. We would like to express deep
appreciation to all the community members, organization staff, students,
and the President's Office for their support of this project.
Lowell, Massachusetts
Lowell, Massachusetts is a mid-sized city with a population of a little
over 100,000. The Merrimack River joins the Concord River in the city,
and there are many waterfalls, rapids, dams, and canals throughout which
made it desirable for the location of industries dependent on water power as
an energy source. Lowell was founded in the 1820s and named for Francis
Cabot Lowell, a key figure in the Industrial Revolution who secretly studied
textile technology in Great Britain and brought that technology to what became Lowell. In fact, Lowell is known as the cradle of the American Industrial Revolution. In only thirty years, Lowell became the biggest industrial
center of the United States, with a particular focus on textile manufacturing.
5
�Due to its many industries, immigrants to America were attracted by
the possibility of work, which has resulted in a very rich cultural mix in
Lowell. The city has seen many waves of immigrants, successively: Irish
people in the 1840s and 1850s were followed by French Canadians in
the 1860s and 1870s, and then by Greek, Polish, Portuguese, and Jewish
people. In more recent times, immigrants from Southeast Asia have settled
in Lowell, including people from Burma (now known as Myanmar),
Cambodia, Laos, and Viet Nam-the countries whose tales fill this book.
The city is host to many immigrants from South America, including Brazil,
Colombia, and the Dominican Republic. Increasingly the city has attracted
immigrants from various parts of Africa.
Lowell's history as a city of immigrants and refugees has resulted in
a number of community-based organizations that promote celebrations
of cultural arts and traditions from various countries of origin. There are
museum exhibits, statues, and other memorials dedicated to the various
immigrants to Lowell throughout the city. Organizations that provide
direct social services to the Southeast Asian communities include Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association, Lao Family Mutual Association, and
SayDaNar Community Development Center. Faith-based institutions also
play a strong role in Lowell's Southeast Asian communities. For example,
there are four different Buddhist temples in Lowell (one Vietnamese: Chua
Tuong Van Lowell, two Cambodian: Lowell Wat Khmer and The Glory
Buddhist Temple, and one Lao: Watlao Mixayarama of New England).
Saint Patrick Catholic Church provides worship every weekend in five languages: Spanish, Vietnamese, Burmese, Cambodian, and English. Lowell
is home to the second largest population of Cambodian Americans in the
U.S. and is nationally known for its Southeast Asian Water Festival. The
Angkor Dance Troupe is renowned for perfonning traditional Cambodian
arts. Every year, Lowell celebrates the Vietnamese Lunar New Year or Tet
on January/early February and Cambodian, Lao, and Thai New Year on
April 13 - 15th.

�The White Elephant
oocS§1lGCY.:Y5
A folktale from Burma
§+'1?~='{)~(98
A long, long time ago, there was a lonely man in a village in
Burma. He had no parents, no family , no relatives. He was so poor
he had nothing to eat. He had to find a job. So he went to work for
the king as a servant. He had to work very hard as a servant. He had
to do everything the king asked him to do . He never refused. He
never had a chance to refuse . Whatever the king asked, he had to do .
�One day, the king heard that somewhere in the jungle a white elephant had
appeared. "A white elephant is very rare and special in our country," the king
said. The king said to the lonely man, "You must capture this white elephant! I
have given you work. I have given you food . So you have to repay me. When
you come back, you have to come back with the white elephant. If you don ' t
bring me the white elephant, you will die."
'
�The lonely man was very upset because the jungle was very dangerous . But he
could not refuse. He went off to the dangerous jungle. He was so afraid he. could not
even look at things. He just walked with his head down. He did not notice the
monkey. He did not notice the beautiful flowers . He did not notice the ancient ruins .
He just looked down at the dirt.
�I
Boom! He bumped into something big and round and hard . Was
it a tree?
All of a sudden, it was raining .
He,looked up .
�He saw the white elephant. The white elephant was pouring
water on the lonely man.
�The white elephant had a special power. He understood people's feelings. He understood how the
lonely guy felt. The white elephant understood that
the lonely man was in trouble.
The lonely man was crying and weeping and he told
the white elephant, "I'm so afraid of you, but I have
no choice. The king ordered me to capture you, and I
am also afraid of the king. He said that ifl do not
bring you to him, he will kill me. If I do not go back,
I cannot survive in this jungle. I don't want to capture
you. I don't know how to capture you. Can you help
me?"
13
�The white elephant said, "I came to you. Do not be afraid of me. I came here just to
save you . Just follow me ."
So the white elephant took the lonely man into the deep jungle. The white elephant
took him to a very, very, very big Bo tree. They sat under the very, very, very big Bo
tree in the shade. The lonely man leaned on the Bo tree.
�The lonely man saw all kinds of animals there. They played with each
other. They loved each other. They had fun with each other. For a
moment, the lonely man forgot all his troubles . The lonely man was
tired. He fell asleep .
�In his dream, the white elephant appeared and told him , "Just go back to
the king. Tell your king that he will meet me. But he has to do something foi:me first. "
The lonely man went back to the king even though he was afraid the king
would kill him because the white elephant was nowhere to be seen .
�The king was angry and got all his swords and all his knives. The lonely man
apologized to the king and begged him, "Please listen to me before you kill me. I
met the white elephant."
When the king heard that the lonely man had met with the white elephant, his
anger cooled a little bit.
The lonely man continued, "The white elephant wants you to take all your
money and all of your treasure and give it away to the poor people. If you finally
have nothing, you will get what you want. You will get the white elephant. I will
go and get him for you.
"Are you sure?" the king said.
"Yes, I am sure. This is what the white elephant wanted me to tell you."
�I .

The king desperately wanted the white elephant. So he gave away all
his possessions to the poor. The king told the lonely man , "I did everything that you told me to do. Now it is your turn ." And he said, "Okay .
Yes."
18
�The lonely man went back to the jungle. The white elephant was waiting for
him . The elephant took the lonely guy on his shoulder.
GOOOOONNNNNGGGGG!
The king welcomed the white elephant and introduced him to all the people.
There was loud music to celebrate. People from all around heard the news that
the white elephant lived in the king' s village. Everyone wanted to come and see
the white elephant. A white elephant is very rare and very special ,
All of a sudden, the white elephant told everyone, "My name is not the White
Elephant. My name is not the White King. My name is the Prince of Peace."
�Lots of people came to see the Prince of Peace. Whenever they came, they brought presents. They brought gold
and money and many other treasures. The king became
richer than before.
�One day, the Prince of Peace--the white elephant--called the lonely guy . He told
the lonely guy, "I.have been living in the palace for many, many ~ears now. I'm
getting old now. I have to go back to my place. Back home, everything is ready for
me. You have peace and many riches, so I don't need to stay here anymore. I have
to go back."
The lonely guy told the king that the white elephant wanted to go home. Once
again, the king celebrated the white elephant. Once again, there was loud music.
There was a parade to say goodbye. There was a big feast. While the music was
playing, the white elephant took the lonely guy on his shoulders.
�-·.
They flew away and disappeared. The lonely guy
never worried about food again.

Cambodia
Cambodia is a country in Mainland Southeast Asia. It is tucked
between Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. It is about the size of the State
of Oklahoma. Its capital city is Phnom Penh with a population of about
1.5 million. In 2017, Cambodia's total population was about 16 million. Cambodia is famous for its many magnificent ancient monuments
including Angkor Wat. On its tricolored national flag, Angkor Wat is
proudly displayed with three of the five elegant lotus-shaped towers
symbolizing Mount Meru or the sacred cosmological mountain on
Earth. Most Cambodians speak Khmer, an old language of the Khmer
Empire that lasted from the 9th to 15th century. Cambodians celebrate
many festivals throughout the year; the Khmer New Year is in the middle of April. Most Cambodians observe Buddhism and enshrine it as
the national religion in the country's constitution. In the past 64 years
after gaining independence from France in 1953, Cambodia has gone
through many regime changes that killed millions of its own citizens
and properties. Currently Cambodia is at peace with a king as its head
of state and a prime minister as the country's leader.

Once there was a snail who lived in a pond. He lived in the pond with many, many other snails.
The snail heard that there was a rabbit who lived close to the pond. He heard that the rabbit was very
fast. One day that rabbit stooped down to drink the water from the snails' pond. The snail yelled at
the rabbit, "You cannot come and drink the water from my pond! "

�The Golden Starfruit Tree

Once upon a time, there was a very rich man who lived in a village. When he died, he left
his two sons a huge fortune. The two brothers were entirely different from each other. The
older brother was greedy, while the younger one was very kind . The older brother claimed
the whole fortune and left his younger brother only a starfruit tree.

�Both brothers got married .
The older brother with his
inheritance had nothing to
worry about. Meanwhile, the
younger brother who only had
the starfruit tree was very
worried . Thus, he took good
care of his tree, hoping that it
would give him a lot of fruit so
that he could make a living by
selling it. The tree grew bigger
and bigger. It had a lot of fruit.

64
�When the starfruit was ripe, a raven flew by and stopped in the tree to eat a lot of fruit.
The younger brother was very sad to see this happen every day, but he did not know what
to do.

65
�One day, he decided to stand beneath the
tree and talk to the raven : "Raven, please don't
eat my fruit. This fruit tree is my only
fortune" . "Don ' t worry" the raven replied. "I'll
pay you back with gold. Make a 2-yard long
bag. Tomorrow morning, I'll come back and
take you to get the gold. "
Mot horn, nguoi em quySt djnh dung du6i

Anh bl;).n hay may mot cai tui dai ba gang tay.
Cho sang ngay mai, qul;l se tr& ll;li va cha anh

�Next morning, the raven came back. He let the younger brother sit on his back and flew
over the sea to an island filled with gold. The younger brother gathered all the gold he could
fit into the bag that he had made. Then he flew back home on the raven ' s back with a lot of
gold. He was very happy . He had become very rich.
Sang horn sau, con qu~ quay tro l~i. Qu~ dS nguai em len lung r6i bay qua biSn d~n mot

67
�The younger brother invited the older one to come over. The older brother said,
''No, I don ' t want to go to your shabby house". The younger brother kept inviting
his older brother to visit him. "I have something for you, Brother."
Nguai em mai anh t&i nha. Nguai anh n6i , "Khong, tao khong d~n cai nha t6i
tan cua may dau" . Nguai em nai ni mai nguai anh, "Em c6 qua cho anh".
68
�Finally, the older brother gave in. He visited his brother and found to his surprise that
his brother had all sort of riches - a very big house, lots of beautiful furniture, lots of
money.
Cu6i cung ngu&i anh chiSu theo em . Ngu&i anh d~n va r~t ngl;).c nhien khi th~y SIJ giau

69
�"How did you get all these riches, Brother?" the older one asked. The younger
brother told him about the starfruit tree, and the raven and the trip to the island
filled with gold. The older brother offered to trade all his fortune for the starfruit
tree. The kind brother gladly accepted the offer.
The raven came as usual and ate a lot of starfruit. The older brother spoke to the
raven the same words as his younger brother did. He received the same answer
from the raven . But he was so greedy that he made a much larger bag instead of a
2-yard long bag.
The next day, the raven came to take him to the island of gold. After he filled
the bag with gold, he put the gold into all of his pockets, too. Then, he climbed
onto the raven ' s back to go home.
But the load was so heavy that when they flew over the sea, the raven tilted his
tired wings. "Let go! Let go of the gold! " the raven screamed. But the older
brother didn ' t want to let go of the gold. Finally, the raven had to drop him into
the sea.

�Back at home, the younger brother waited for the older one for a very long time.
"Why is it taking so long for my brother to come back?"
The next day, the younger brother met the raven and asked where his brother was. The
raven told him that the older brother wouldn ' t let go of the gold and fell into the sea
because it was too heavy .

��When he came home, he told his wife that he found a big
pot of gold in the paddy.
"Where is it?" the wife asked. "If somebody finds it, they
wi II take it."
In a cairn voice, the man replied, " If it belongs to us, it will
be there. If somebody else finds it and takes it, it belongs to
them . If it is a gift from God, it will find its way to us."

Yes.
SK
In Chelmsford, Massachusetts at Maryellen's home office. Thank
you so much for agreeing to talk to us today.
MC
I'm looking forward to it.

Let's start a little bit about information about yourself. Sort of
where were you born? Where did you grow up? How did you find
your way to law school? I know that you went to Boston
University. Things of that sort.
MC
I was born in California. Dad was part of defense industry, so we
actually moved around a lot growing up, and we ended up in
Bedford, Massachusetts, but I went to college in New York,
Manhattanville College, undergrad. I then, as an international
affairs, international law, and French major. Then, I decided to
apply to law school. I took a year off and worked, and I actually
started at Franklin Pierce Law Center, and I finished at Boston
University School of Law in 1981. I had been working for an
attorney out in Acton who had a small practice, but was involved

in a special ed case, special education case out of Burlington. I did
a lot of work and research for him. Then, I also worked for a firm
downtown in Boston that did a lot of medical malpractice and civil
work. I didn't like sitting in the closet answering interrogatories,
but at BU I had done the student prosecutor program. The criminal
law bug bit. I started while I was with the attorney in Acton doing
some court appointed work in Concord District Court. Gradually
moved over to where I was taking cases out of Lowell. Since the
mid to late '80s.
SK:
Okay, so that was about the mid to late '80s when you started
working with cases in Lowell.
MC:
Mm-hmm [affirmative].
SK:
Do you remember what those first cases, sort of what they were
about?
MC:
It was mostly at the district court level, and they were a variety of
cases from drunk driving cases to possession of guns and things.
But I was also at that time taking superior court cases, both in
Lowell Superior and at that time Cambridge Superior Court. I
remember at that time, we did do a lot of cases that involved gang
involvement, both the Hispanic and the Asian gangs. I remember
when I first started in that, we had Laotian. We had Vietnamese
people, as well as Cambodians. There were a lot of Dominicans,
and we also dealt with some of the Hispanic gangs. There were
drug cases also.
SK:
That was about the mid '80s when that started.
MC:
Mid to late '80s.
SK:
Mid to late '80s.
MC:
And then went through the '90s.
SK:
Do you remember some of your first, without getting too specific,
some of the first cases where you were working with Asian and
Asian American youth and gangs?

The Tiny Rascal Gang.
MC: [00:04:20]
The Tiny Rascal Gang, and all of that. One of the things that was
complicated, particularly because I was also doing juvenile work is
that at that time a lot of the weapons that were used, they were not
guns. They were machetes, and sticks, and things like that. The
cases really involved a lot of kids who I felt had to join up in order
to be safe in the schools. I remember feeling or trying to educate
myself on the gang situation. I hadn't been involved in that. Then,
finding out that there were a lot of wannabes, and people who they
had to be associated in order to be safe, just to travel around
Lowell, or even to be in the high school and some cases middle
school.
SK:
I see. At this point, you were working as a private defense
attorney?
MC:
I've always been a private defense attorney, but I've done a lot of
court appointed work.
SK:
I see.
MC:
I also, I remember at that time, tipped into what is now UTEC,
which was the street worker program, and became involved there. I
remember, and why my connection with UTEC started was I had a
young Asian male who was charged with armed robbery who told
me, "No, I wasn't there. I was at the street worker program." That's
how I became aware of that, because I went and checked it out,
and he was absolutely in that, at that place when this supposedly
robbery took place. But I remember I also at that time did care and
protection cases, which are child welfare cases. Some of the cases
that I remember being really upset about. They were upsetting to
me. Were at that time it was DSS. It's now DCF. Had a lot of very
young quote unquote social workers who were just out of college,
and didn't have a lot of life experience.
MC:
I remember one case in particular where there was a gunshot that
came through an apartment floor, and so the police investigated,
and it had happened downstairs, but the shot came through the
Page 3 of 35

SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
floor, and so the police went upstairs and investigated what was up
there. There was a family with several children, actually probably a
single woman, and they were sleeping on mats. DCF removed the
children because they were sleeping on mats and not mattresses. I
remember being very angry, because I felt this was cultural, and it
was wrong. I remember I explained, "We need to go get
mattresses." We went to a place where we could then get used
mattresses. I said, "You don't have to use them. We'll just put them
in." We put them in, took pictures, and got the kids back, but it was
really traumatic.
SK:
In those kinds of cases, would you be appointed by the court?
MC:
I was appointed by the court to represent, in that case, the mother
of the children.
SK:
And how many… I know it's difficult to kind of quantify, but out
of your caseload, can you give us a sense of what the scale was, or
like the percentage? In the late '80s, would you say-
MC:
Probably I was working probably at least 30 to 40% of my
caseload involved Asians.
SK:
Right. You were saying at the time in the mid to late '80s, Lowell
is still, it was and still is largely Cambodian, but there were still
Laotian and Vietnamese groups, and things like that.
MC:
Right, that were there. But one of the striking things that I
remembered, when I worked with some of the young people who
are now in trouble, because there was a retaliation, or there was
this or that that was going on between gangs was that when I
represented them and they would come to my office, or I would
meet with them, at that time, the parents, or even older brothers
and sisters, had come via Thailand through Cali, and here. So I was
hearing stories of parents and what they had done as teenagers
escaping Cambodia to get to Thailand.
MC:
I remember one family that was here, they were teachers. The
father was a teacher, and other stories where they had watched a
parent being shot, and then a group of as 14-year-olds making their
way, hiding, to get to Thailand. It was just horrific. I would say, so
then I would see that and juxtapose that against they came here for
Page 4 of 35

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
safety, and then realized that they weren't safe with what they'd
done to protect their children, and then have cases like that. It
made me angry.
SK: [00:10:21]
Yeah. Can you remember sort of, tell us more about sort of the
cases that you met? We can talk about, focus maybe on the
juvenile cases first, and then we can talk more about some of the
cases in the care and protection?
MC:
I remember another care and protection case that I had, where I
represented a parent who had a young Asian teenage boy. What
had happened is, of course, during the gang years the parents were
struggling to keep their child off the streets, away from the gangs,
and one of the things I had learned was that particularly women
were not educated, and they tried very hard to communicate with
you.
MC:
I remember getting phone calls, and I just could not understand
what they were saying, but they were desperately trying to
communicate with me over what was going on with the child. In
this particular case, their child had been removed, because they
were trying to keep them inside and make them do homework, that
they because it was so precious to them because they could not
read or write.
SK:
Right.
MC:
So they sometimes resorted to corporal punishment, which was a
problem for DSS at that time, and if a kid reported that, the kid
went out. I remember in that circumstances the child was removed
to a foster home, where there was really no restrictions, and the
child was not under any care, and the mother was seeing her child
on the streets.
SK:
Oh my goodness.
MC:
And really upset, because now there wasn't any supervision going
on, even though their child had been taken away because of the
issue of some corporal punishment that had been used.
SK:
Do you remember the ethnicity of that family?
Page 5 of 35

UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
MC:
That was Cambodian.
SK:
How did DSS find out about the corporal punishment?
MC:
I think the young man or the child had complained to someone, or
if there was a mark on them or something they'd say, "How did
you get that?" I had two cases like that. One, I remember there was
like a ruler or something that was used, and I remember the other
thing was a lamp cord. I had two cases like that, and I was really
angry about that, because I felt that it was wrong to do that. I had
been brought up with corporal punishment myself.
SK:
I know, me too.
MC:
And I turned out fine, I think. But it was… I also think that
sometimes if it was done by a different culture family, a white
family, the child might not have been removed.
SK:
Right. So you felt like there was bias, intentional or not, on the part
of DSS officers. Especially, like you were saying, if they're young
and inexperienced. I know from teaching contemporary literature
that sometimes the younger students would be more judgmental
than older students who understand that things happen in
complicated ways later in life.
MC:
Right.
SK:
What about communication? You were saying that the parents of
families would be trying to communicate with you sometimes. Did
you-
MC:
That's why very often you saw the family group come. When we're
talking family, we're not talking mom, and dad, and kid. Very
often, we're seeing aunts and uncles, because somebody spoke
better English. So they would come for the purposes of doing that.
It was difficult to get an interpreter to do meetings and things like
that, where you're trying to explain what was going on, and what
the rights were, and that sort of thing. But I learned in the course of
my stuff that there really wasn't a parallel system in Asia, and in
fact in some of the Asian countries there's no jury trial, so trying to
explain that in English, never mind have it interpreted or
translated, was difficult for them to understand. But also, that in
Page 6 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
some Asian countries I learned that some people took their child to
the government to be straightened out, and so on occasion the
expectation was different.
SK: [00:15:09]
I see.
MC:
Versus what happened here.
SK:
I see, so the expectation that the authorities would help straighten
the child out, and then be returned easily, as opposed to having
custody taken away completely.
MC:
Right.
SK:
Wow. When there were these family groups, and you were trying
to explain, I'm just trying to imagine. Was the person who spoke
English, did it tend to be like the second generation, younger
people, or just all over the place?
MC:
It was all over the place. What I find, like many cultures, that they
would say, "I speak English," and they didn't speak English well.
But, very often, also, I would find sometimes they didn't read or
write, and they won't tell you that. I always had to kind of assume
and maneuver around that.
SK:
I'm trying to imagine how you would explain a person's rights, and
the jury trial, and the whole process was so complicated.
MC:
Right.
SK:
What was that like?
MC:
Well, trying to make it so that people understood what that right
was, and very often sometimes you were using a young person
because they spoke better English, but they weren't really that
interested in making sure that all the intricacies were conveyed to a
parent. I saw sometimes that was maybe a little bit of a problem,
because you had a juvenile, or a young person who was maybe
more in charge of the family, because they spoke English, and they
went to all the appointments and places with the parent or the other
people. I had those situations too, where it was a child literally you

know taking the parent to appointments, and trying to interpret,
and they may not have gotten it themselves.
SK:
You took great pains to try to communicate with your clients. Did
you get much support from the court systems in helping you
managing-
MC:
We had interpreters that were in the court system, and there were
some very good interpreters, but there were other interpreters. I
didn't know what they were saying, but I know that we were
talking constantly, and the interpreter was saying a few words,
stopping. You didn't know what really to do. I will say one time, I
have always, like with my clients who speak Spanish, I speak a
little Spanish. I could go down to the lockup. I could go there and
say, "I am an attorney. I am here for you. I'm going to get an
interpreter. I will be back with an interpreter," or the parents were
there.
MC:
At one point, I will say I contacted, and I set up a lunchtime
training at the Lowell District Court with the Cambodian Mutual
Assistance League, and I asked them to come and teach us some
phrases. They were reticent to do so. In fact, they kind of kept
telling us, "We are not to interpret or anything." I think I might not
have even communicated that. Because it was like, "No, I'm not
asking you to interpret in the court. We're asking you to give us
some phrases," so we could go down and assure somebody that
there was an attorney going to look out for them.
MC:
We did learn a few phrases we forgot, but it was hard. I think it
was really up to us to learn and ask about customs. Cato, who is an
interpreter, I know once came and would explain some customs.
Going into the houses. Because I, especially working with
juveniles, you want to see the home and things. Taking off your
shoes, and doing things like that.
SK:
Did things change at all? Like sort of moving into the early, mid
'90s?
MC:
When it got later, I didn't have defendants or people who were
born outside of the states. Some of them had been here for a long
time. Many of them had come through not… Stockyard,
California.

SK: [00:20:04]
Stockton?
MC:
Stockton, California. There were others that had come through, and
I had learned came through into the Midwest, and had worked for
Blue Bunny Ice Cream. I heard those stories too, that they worked,
and then they would end up coming to Lowell, because they had
relatives, or friends, and there was a community here.
SK:
Right.
MC:
Now I started seeing people who had been here longer, and then
some that had even been born here.
SK:
Did it change? I mean, so when you were describing sort of like
the mid late '90s, the gangs, and then also the care and protection,
did the nature of your work with community-
MC:
I think it did, and I always thought, one of the things that I thought
about was in the gangs and stuff, being Irish, and I had learned
about Irish gangs, which were horrific, which nobody talks about
anymore. But I realized, when you learn the stories of them
coming through Thailand. Many of them had been born either in
Thailand, or they come through the Philippines, or whatever, that
the gang thing was not just gangs to go out and do bad stuff. It's
the way your family got fed in the camps. I learned that, and so I
began to see kids who were older, but had remembered that kind of
lifestyle.
SK:
You were hearing this from, I mean was it the younger kids telling
you, or the parents telling you? It's interesting. How did the I guess
genealogy of gangs-
MC:
The parents would be the ones who would tell you more of the
stories. I think the younger people became like, the term we use
was lace curtain Irish. We didn't want to say we were from the sod.
We were there. They really wanted to appear more Americanized.
One of the things that was interesting is we went from kind of the
gang clashing to times where I remember lots of baby showers, and
barbecues in the backyard, and the police were just showing up and
hassling people, and we would end up with arrests.
SK:
Right, in Lowell.

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
MC:
In Lowell.
SK:
Are you talking specifically about Lowell, but also in other places
in Massachusetts?
MC:
No. Mostly Lowell. Mostly Lowell.
SK:
Was it, I guess, in terms of showing up at baby showers and
hassling people, was it people who might have associated with
gangs in the past. You know what I mean? Like wear the clothing,
or have the tattoos and things like that, but be living sort of normal
lives.
MC:
Right.
SK:
But that association was still there with the police.
MC:
Right. The association. Even two years ago, I had a case that
involved, actually it was not an Asian gang, but there were some
Asian members. A group called Young Gunners, in Lowell, and
they were really kids who had grown up together. The police came
in and did a hearing in juvenile court where they said, "These are
gang members." There were a few people in the gang. They had a
portfolio, and a file folder, and were deceased. I recognized kids
that were no longer involved. It was when they were young. So it
was like once a gang member, always a gang member. I still see
that today.
SK:
Do you think that that is racialized at all? That there is a tendency
more to see that particularly with ethnic minority groups?
MC:
Only because my experience in Lowell. The Young Gunners is not
necessarily an Asian gang. It's more of a group of kids, and it was
described on the witness stand as kids who had grown up together.
And so with regards to the Hispanic gangs, which there isn't a lot
in Lowell. We're not really seeing gangs in Lowell. But, the police
will still say. I still see it in the police that they're a self-admitted
gang member, way back when, when they were in school, when
they were a young person. We don't see the gang activity. We don't
see the arrests for that kind of thing now.
SK: [00:25:00]
Right.

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
MC:
But, we still see that language and stuff put in a police report.
SK:
Right. What are some of the other stories that sort of stick out in
your mind, particularly say working with the gang members, the
youth, juvenile offenders?
MC:
I remember there were stories where the gangs would go after one
another, and you don't understand why. They were just their
territory, or that territory. Why? That always was like, why?
People really hurt and stuff. But as things progressed, we had more
guns involved. I do remember going and looking at bullet holes at
a house next to the Pailin Palace.
SK:
There were just a couple shootings in 2018. You know.
MC:
Right. And that sort of thing. I had a juvenile who, it wasn't a
juvenile. He was barely an adult. Who, they got a gun, and they
went, and the gun went off, and somebody died, and it was a young
Asian male. I remember dealing with someone who had shot
someone, and it was almost unreal, surreal to them that that
actually happened.
[00:26:32]
[phone begins ringing in background]
SK:
Right.

But, I think there was a lot of protection that needed to be ... Let
me just shut that off.

[answering machine message comes on in background: Hello. This
is Maryellen Cuthbert. I'm unable to take your call at the moment.]
MC: [00:26:55]
Sorry. So we didn't see the machetes and the sticks anymore. We
were seeing guns.
SK:
Would you say that transition happened in the-
MC:
In the '90s.
SK:
'90s.
MC:
The late '90s. Yeah, mid to late '90s. All of a sudden it was guns.

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
SK:
What was it like? Did you have kind of more kind of like personal
level? When you were talking to a defender, or meeting with a
defendant for the first time, what was your, I don't know how to
put it, philosophy, or approach, especially given your experience
working with the community members?
MC:
I first always tried to establish a relationship, and made sure they
understood my role was to advocate for them or to defend them, no
matter what. I always thought, and I understood that there really
was a mistrust. They saw us as part of the system, and I could see
that. So initially, you tried to listen, and understand, and that's
where I got a lot of the stories, because I would ask for
background, and how you got here, and things like that. Because
there is a mistrust, and to really make them understand my role
was to defend, no matter what, and they could tell me anything. I
did go to homes to see, and particularly when I'm dealing with a
juvenile, to see what they're dealing with.
MC:
Also my office is here in Chelmsford. They can't find Chelmsford.
In many cases they don't drive. They work. Lowell, I think the
Cambodian community has spread out in Lowell, but it was in the
downtown area, where it was very compact. So, you went there.
And so it's very different now, I think, in terms of being able to
find Chelmsford. They're a little bit more worldly.
SK:
Right. People are moving out into the suburbs in the second to
third generation.
MC:
Right.
SK:
Where your office is, where were you based? Were you always
based here but then you moved around?
MC:
I've always been in Chelmsford. I had another office in
Chelmsford, but I'm in court so much doing criminal defense work,
this allows me to work early morning and late at night.
SK:
Did you work very much with adults in the early years, in the '80s
and the '90s?
MC:
I did. I worked with adults also, and we've changed so that 17 yearolds who were considered adults are no longer adults.
Page 12 of 35

UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
SK:
I see.
MC:
But, yes. There were young adults who were in the age group, too.
I'd say it was probably 50-50 that were young adults, 17, 18, 19,
20, and then juveniles that were involved in the gangs, and things
like that. For a long time, I hate to say it, when you thought
Cambodian in Lowell or Asian, they must be in a gang.
SK: [00:30:23]
Right.
MC:
I remember learning about tattoos and things that would appear on
the face. The tears and stuff.
SK:
Right.
MC:
The assumption was tattoos, they must have a gang. Until
somebody explained to me when you ask what they are. They're
for somebody who's deceased, or symbols for this or that. That was
another way that sometimes it would be a response. At first I'd ask,
"What does that mean? What does that ..."
SK:
So it was by talking to the clients and their families about what
things mean, learning about their background. As opposed to,
where were you hearing the other? Was it in the courts, or just
social?
MC:
About?
SK:
About the perception of Cambodians, particularly, in Lowell.
MC:
Yeah, just around. I think that's the way it was. It was assumed
they must be in a gang. The other thing that we saw in the '90s
were the girls in the gangs that we did not see very early on, but
then we saw the girls in the gangs.
SK:
What did you see? How did you come across them? How were
they different? How were they similar?
MC:
The girls were generally associated with a gang member, but I
learned about the gang rapes, and the jump-ins and the jump-outs. I
actually was at a jump out once. Somebody alerted me to one. I
went with a group to try to stop it.

ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
SK:
This is for the record. Can you explain what a jump-out is?
MC:
If you want to leave a gang, and also that was one of the things that
was interesting, particularly in the courts. Judge Blitzman made it a
point to educate himself about things also. So, he began to spread
the word. Where we learned that they'd say no gang involvement.
People didn't understand that to just leave a gang and say, "I'm not
involved with you," was a dangerous proposition for them. That
the seniors had to mediate their way out, and that's a lot of times
where UTEC has come in, the street workers and stuff, and we
begin to explain to judges, because we learned that, so they'd say,
"No gang activity" versus "no gang association."
SK:
Right.
MC:
I still think that's an issue.
SK:
Right.
MC:
I still think that's an issue.
SK:
Actually that brings up a good, interesting ... With the judges, you
mentioned Judge Blitzman. What was his--
MC:
Jay Blitzman is a juvenile judge. He's the chief juvenile judge in
Middlesex County. He sits primarily in Lowell. He became very
aware, and made all kinds of attempts to be involved. He goes into
the schools and stuff, and learn about the culture.
SK:
I would imagine a lot, but how influential was this position, or the
understanding of judges in cases like this? How big of an impact
do you think-
MC:
I'm going to be very blunt. I think he was the only judge that I'm
aware of that made any attempt to understand the cultural and the
norms of that. I know when I became aware of it, I started to
explain to the judges, "Your Honor, we cannot say no gang
association. That would be really dangerous for them to do, to just
say, 'I can't talk to you,' or whatever anymore." So we began to try
to adjust the language and the verbiage that got used in the court in
order to do that. Then, also we did refer to UTEC. When we had a
Page 14 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
kid that wanted to get out, or we said can't get them to mediate
their way.
SK:
How receptive were judges and others in the court system to your
attempts to kind of explain these things to them?
MC: [00:34:51]
I will tell you that Judge Blitzman I thought was very receptive. A
couple years ago, I had a case. It did not involve an Asian gang
member, but it was a Caucasian kid. There was another judge
involved, and he had grown up with a gang. They really weren't
doing anything but hanging out together, but he had gotten caught
doing something, and he was on probation. The term the judge had
used was "no gang activity." He had done some time at DYS, and
he had come out, but this was still his friends, and he was on house
arrest. He was associated with UTEC and doing everything. I had
to say, "You can't say no gang association, because he's doing very
well at UTEC, and there are gang members there."
SK:
Right.
MC:
So you're trying to educate judges, and probation officers and
things that you can't just do this. But in any case, what happened is
there was another member of that gang that was on trial that I had,
and there was some Facebook stuff that went back and forth, and
gang sign that was shown on Facebook. The probation officer
brought them in, and that juvenile was surrendered on a probation
surrender. I appealed it, because I said, "This is not gang activity.
This is association." I went to the appeals court. I don't know
whether they laughed me out or not. I said, "You know what? I
walk into my courthouse every day and I have to show a Bar card,
that I'm associated with the Mass Bar Association, but I do not
subscribe to everything that they do and say. It is the same way.
This is the culture." I lost that one. The argument obviously didn't
fly well, but people don't see it that way, that it was a matter of
survival, and that it became a matter of association.
SK:
And then leaving is not as simple as just turning around and
walking away.
MC:
Right.

SK:
Right. Other than sort of, you know, we focus a lot on the gang
related activity, and we've talked a little bit about the sort of care
and protection, custody. Were there other sort of areas in which
you had a lot of experience, you had experience with the Southeast
Asian community?
MC:
Well, I used to go to the Cambodian Light of the Children, it was
the reading cover-
SK:
Light of Cambodian Children. Right. Right.
MC:
I missed the, they used to have a big dinner. I enjoyed that. That
was one of the ways where I think some of the population in
Lowell that didn't know where we learned a lot about the dances,
the stories, and food, and things like that.
SK:
You know Sayon Soeun, then? Who was the I think director of
Light of Cambodian Children.
MC:
I don't know personally, but I think Cato was the interpreter made
us aware of that. I went a few times to that. They don't have them
anymore.
SK:
I know. Light of Cambodian Children unfortunately shut down a
few years ago, but they did a lot of work in the '90s and the 2000s,
helping bridge like the youth and the community.
MC:
The dances, and the other thing is the publicity about the Angkor
Dance Troupe, which helped I think show that there is not this
mindset of gang. That there's a whole 'nother group, and that there
are customs to be preserved. There are memories, probably some
bad memories, but there are also some customs that kind of did
what they could to bring that out.
SK:
Did you have very much experience with ... From the academic
perspective, when we talk about health disparities, or educational
disparities, or even oral histories in the Southeast Asian
community, you always have to deal with trauma, because there's
no way to get around sort of like the trauma of the killing fields, or
war, being a refugee, and things like that. I'm sure it was sort of
imbued a lot of what your work with the community members, but

did you ever come face-to-face with it in specific instances? Like,
you know, from family members, or from your clients?
MC: [00:39:53]
You know, what's really interesting, and I just printed off an article
on trauma, because it is the in thing right now with juveniles, and I
was reading an evaluation for a juvenile, and there were some
articles and stuff, and I was just printing them off so I could read
them and stuff. But, in the '80s and the '90s, we weren't talking
about trauma, but we had to know that's there.
SK:
Right.
MC:
I remember there's a story that I heard, and it was a man who had
come through such trauma. He had been in Cambodia, and this was
an adult superior court client, and he had I believe his family was
shot, and he left with some cousins, and he described to me hiding
in the woods, traveling at night to get to Thailand, and they made it
there. But in that timeframe, so the trauma I knew had to be really
bad for him, but he was just kind of very accepting of things. So he
got to Thailand, and he was there, and he had worked in
construction in Thailand, and then gotten himself ... I think they
joined, and as I understand, sometimes groups would join up and
say, "We're a family," and that they could get here as a family, but
it got people here.
MC:
So he got here with someone who they called a family, and when
they got here, the woman died. But there were some children there,
but he connected with another woman that he had known in
Thailand. Unfortunately, she had a terrible alcohol problem, so he
was kind of raising her now teenage kids. So, the girl, and the girl,
his would have been a step daughter was, as he put it, running the
streets in Lowell, and she was connected with someone who was
an older gang member, and he was trying to keep her home. He
actually went out with her brother, and went to the home, and tried
to pull her back and stuff, and then got her home.
MC:
He put a trash bag over her, because she was acting like trash. I
think he used a broom handle. He was trying to discipline her. This
was a case that I had done. The police became aware of it or
something. She complained. Then, she claimed rape on his part. I
thought about, "How much more trauma can this person take?" She
claimed rape, but she miscarried, or the baby died. She had said

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
that all along, that it was his baby. It must have happened because
of that. He was, "No, no, no." We insisted on DNA. Sure enough,
was not his. It was not his.
MC:
He just was like calm. I thought, "How does he deal with this?"
Then, so we went to trial. In fact, the DA's office fought me on
trying to get this information in, that she had made this false claim,
etc, etc. The problem is she had had some bruises, and he had also
spoken with the police, with a Cambodian speaking interpreter
police officer, and made some statements about hitting her, and
why. We went to trial in Lowell Superior Court.
SK:
Was that for assault?
MC:
Initially it was on the rape, and all that stuff, and everything. The
jury found him not guilty of everything, with the exception of
assault and battery.
SK:
Right.
MC:
And I was appalled. They gave him six months. I thought that six
months committed for doing that. He was taking care of someone
else's kids. I was appalled, and I remember we went to the jail. At
this point, he had connected with another young woman wanting a
family. Who wouldn't? He took care of her, because she was
pregnant. She had come through the Midwest somewhere, and she
was pregnant. It wasn't his. She was much younger than he was,
but he was taking care of her.
MC:
I went to the home, and it was neat as a pin, and stuff, and he had
brought a TV that the picture was half gone. He was proudly
showing me how he fixed the vacuum cleaner and stuff. He was
taking care of a family again. I said, "How do you do this and just
keep going?" I did see an obituary a few years ago for him. He
probably died in his 50s, or whatever. Those things, you just, you
think about the trauma and everything, but I think we don't think
about that or attach that label to adults as much as we are with the
children.
SK: [00:46:02]
I think, especially in Southeast Asian American studies, with
adults, it's usually associated with not communicating. So the
second generation or the younger kids might act out in a variety of
Page 18 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
ways, whereas the first generation, a lot of it is very repressed, or
manifests as health problems, and things like that.
MC:
Right.
SK:
There were two things that came up. Did you see or did you have
much experience with domestic violence, or domestic abuse within
the community?
MC:
I'll say that we heard situations, but I would suggest in my
experience across the board, no more than ...
SK:
Right.
MC:
And I didn't hear about it in any other extraordinary way.
SK:
Right. You didn't come across many cases related to that, or
probably for a variety of reasons.
MC:
No. And when you talk about domestic abuse, it may be like mom
hitting the kid to get him to do the homework. But very often, I
will say despite the fact that we did see Cambodian males hookup
and make these families, I will say very often it was a woman
alone raising the family, without being able to speak or read
English.
SK:
Where were the fathers, or the men?
MC:
I think many times they were widowed, or they may have
connected with someone to come through. I heard those stories.
But then, they would leave the family, or the man wasn't, you
know... And so they were on their own raising the kids.
[00:47:44]
[phone begins ringing in background]
SK:
What about substance abuse? How common was that as an issue?
Sorry.
[00:47:49]
[button pressing in background]
MC:
Sorry. I'm trying to turn this just off.

SK:
I don't think I even know how to use regular phones anymore.
MC:
I know. So anyways, I think that alcohol did play a part. But again,
in every culture we saw that. The thing we might have seen
different a little bit, and I remember I handled a case once, was
gambling, which was, there were the corner stores and the
gambling, which was more prevalent for the Southeast Asian
community.
SK:
What kind of gambling?
MC:
I'm not sure, but there was some kind of number games, or it was
gambling. In fact, I had home invasion cases where they knew that
there would be money, because people were gambling. I don't
know if they were dice games or whatever. I know I had two or
three of those cases where they went in with masks, because they
knew it was an Asian. They were gambling, and there would be
money.
SK:
Right. The perpetrators, the defenders were also Cambodian. They
knew in the community who was-
MC:
Right.
SK:
You mentioned several times working with UTEC, and I'm a huge
fan. When did you start working with them? What was the nature
of your collaborations with them?
MC: [00:49:36]
Well, I started back when it was a street worker program, and that's
because I had a client who said, "I couldn't have been there. I was
here." So then I began working with United Teen Equities Center,
as I found out that they had resources. They would sometimes go
find a kid, that I needed in court, who I couldn't locate. They
weren't showing up for court dates, or they would enable me to
meet with them and the family. Actually sometimes their street
workers would bring a parent and a child, and they would help
interpret for me at the UTEC building. First when it was over
behind the high school there, and then once it became where it is
now. Then there were times when we had a client who had done
something who was on the run and needed to turn themselves in,
and I would assist with that. Sometimes I couldn't do much, but I
could walk through the process with them.

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
SK:
Right. That was starting in the '90s, late '90s, early 2000s?
MC:
I'm trying to think. Probably in the '90s, when I knew it as the
street worker program, and when they were over at the church. It
was at St Anne's there. St Anne's.
SK:
Yes.
MC:
I was going over there to ... They could frequently meet a kid, or
because the high school was there I could meet a kid there. I could
get them to go there after high school. Either that, or when Burger
King was downtown, particularly with the boys. I'd have my
coupons, and we would eat. Sometimes it would be them and their
friends. We were sitting at another table. But I knew as long as we
could have food on the table, I could get them to work with me a
little bit.
SK:
You also mentioned the Boys & Girls Club, and the YMCA. I
mean what was-
MC:
And Girls Inc. There are other. Those are organizations that also,
that helped like if we needed community service, or try to get a
program and stuff.
SK:
I see. Right.
MC:
One of the things that I think was very different, and was a struggle
was out here in the suburbs and stuff, the parents signed their kid
up for soccer. There's a sign. Soccer sign ups, T-ball sign up, and
that sort of stuff.
SK:
Yeah. My cousin has my niece's summer all planned out.
MC:
Yeah. They know to do that. As much as I sometimes felt that the
Asian population, they wanted to become, they weren't those
athletes, that kind of stuff. So sometimes, I hate to say this, but
with the Hispanic kids, or for the Brazilian kids, or whatever, I
could go get a soccer sign-up sheet, and fill it out, and say, "Sign
here" and stuff, and get that. Versus I wasn't able to do that so
much. There wasn't an interest.
SK:
Right.

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
MC:
On the part of the Asian students in doing that. They weren't aware
of that.
SK:
Right.
MC:
I know that I asked my ... My long-term partner is from Taiwan.
We've traveled back there and stuff, and I'd say, "So, what did you
do for sports? You don't have that." Because I said, "Well, they're
always at the World Series of baseball, so it must be a big sport. Is
it organized?" He said in the Asian countries, and he spent some
time in China and stuff, is that they're just not as organized. He
said like track and field, running. That they did that, but there
wasn't that kind of organized sports. That was another way for kids
to become involved. So we could try to do that, and they would
involve them in other activities, because they weren't so involved
in the sports.
SK:
Right. But what were some of those other activities?
MC:
I know Girls Inc. had the activities for girls. I know they did
different things.
SK:
You mean like crafts and things?
MC:
Crafts. They did some of the swimming lessons at the Y, but they
had just kind of hangout kind of stuff, programs.
SK:
This was even for youth, because this is for a lot of nonprofits.
They do these kinds of things, because in the grant applications
they say this is to sort of prevent, to give you something to do to
prevent sort of like getting into crime and things like that. But
these were also things that you could find for clients like after, like
for community service.
MC: [00:54:57]
You were looking for that, and for after school, because parents
were working, and they're working third shift. That was another
thing that I saw. I don't hear it so much anymore, but was it
MACOM that was up there. One parent was working one shift, and
another parent was working the other shift, and that wasn't
uncommon.
SK:
Right.

MC:
That wasn't uncommon.
SK:
I think the second and third generations are transitioning more into
normal nine to five jobs, and professions, and things like that.
MC:
Right.
SK:
Yeah.
MC:
Right. So, it was, so you were looking for ways to keep kids
occupied, but I also knew they were kind of, as I spoke, distrustful,
and I don't blame them. But also, within their community.
SK:
Right.
MC:
Taking care of each other within the family oriented.
SK:
Did you have very much experience with or interaction with
immigration? Just because I know that the whole issue of
Southeast Asian deportees now depends on two things, like the
repatriation agreements between the U.S. and like Cambodia and
Vietnam, but then also usually the record of felony or
misdemeanor convictions, and things like that.
MC:
I don't do that kind of work, but at first it really wasn't much of an
issue, and Cambodia didn't take, so it wasn't an issue so much, so
we weren't working that out. So, I became aware in the last year or
so, and I'm not going to say too much of somebody who's working,
or a couple people who have had convictions for serious crimes,
but are now working in the community, raising families, and stuff
like that. They are available to be deported.
SK:
Right.
MC:
I have a brother who's with the Jesuit Volunteer Program, and my
sister-in-law was with the Maryknolls, and they met at BC. They
did that together, and then they went to Bolivia, and were there.
So, when I became aware of this, and that they're kind of living on
the edge, wondering if they're going to get picked up, I contacted
my brother and I found out that there is these Maryknolls who have
in Cambodia a group there, and the Jesuits were there, but I'm not
sure, but they're there. Because, my understanding is that for these
Page 23 of 35

SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
people who have never been there, or lived there, or whatever, and
they go back, that they're just dropped off with nothing, and they
don't know the language.
SK:
Right. They don't know anything about the country.
MC:
Don't know nothing about the country. Don't have any contacts
there. They end up being like street people and everything. So we
handed the name out to a couple and say, "You need to make sure
you keep this name on you if something happens, and you get
yourself to ..." Because, they do use some of the people that they
can to help with others that are coming back. They start work
projects, and things like that. When somebody came to me and told
me that, I was like horrified, because it's a friend.
SK:
Right. So it's only recently that this has come to your attention?
Because I know before 2002, when Cambodia and U.S. signed a
repatriation, it just they didn't accept deportees at all. Then even
after 2002, they did, but it wasn't ... It wasn't really on your radar
until recently, right?
MC:
Yeah. It wasn't. Not for Cambodia. No.
SK:
Right. I see.
MC:
And it just, that just like horrifies me to think about that.
SK:
Especially people, like you were saying, people who have been
through so much in their early years, and it could be 20 years ago
that they were convicted.
MC:
One of the things that I think is really modern, and I've also
become a little bit aware of, and concerns me a little bit. It's a hot
issue right now. Is trafficking. I know that the legal community is a
little bit concerned because of all of the nail salons.
SK: [01:00:00]
Right. I see.
MC:
And young women that are here. Many of them don't speak
English, and they're here for a short amount of time, and they're
working long hours and stuff. That, people are wondering about
that issue for the Asians. Then of course with the whole Kraft
Page 24 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
thing, like all of a sudden people questioning what's going on in
our nail salons, and our salons here.
SK:
Right.
MC:
If trafficking has become an issue with Asian women.
SK:
I see. Yeah, there's a couple people. Actually, Sheldon Zhang at
UMass Lowell. He's the chair of the School of Criminology and
Justice Studies. He works in trafficking in Asia. There's I think a
couple other faculty there.
MC:
I've had a couple over adult female from China that they said,
women who were I think being trafficked.
SK:
I see. It was an issue of concern, or like ...
MC:
I think it's something, now there's a little bit of issue of concern
about the young women that are here, and clearly recently here,
and whether they're protected.
SK:
I see. Sort of moving towards the end, I want to definitely give you
a chance to talk about any other stories that you want to talk about.
MC:
I hope I'm giving you the information.
SK:
This is great. But I'm wondering, since you started working
particularly with the Southeast Asian community since the '80s,
what would you say are some of the biggest changes? The other
question is what are some of the things that surprisingly have not
changed? In terms of working with, your experiences with the
Southeast Asian community. What's changed?
MC:
Have not changed, I'm going to say dealing with the police
community is like ... They're a self-admitted gang member. When
we really don't have ... I'm not seeing it in stuff, a huge gang issue.
SK:
I see.
MC:
In Lowell, like we were. But, just being able to grow up and move
away from that, and also not seeing it, looking back with some
Page 25 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
perspective and saying, "This is what happened, and why that was
there. That was happening."
SK:
That's what has? Sorry.
MC:
That has not changed. I think law enforcement's perspective.
SK:
I see.
MC:
On-
SK:
Has not changed.
MC:
"You're a gang member-"
SK:
That perspective of, "Once a gang member, always a gang
member."
MC:
Right.
SK:
That perspective has not changed.
MC:
Right.
SK:
I see.
MC:
From that standpoint. I still do think that there is, for the minorities
in Lowell, still a different treatment by law enforcement than
someone who is Caucasian. I still think that in the schools, that
rather than see that there's a kid who was brought up by a mother
who did not speak English, or read or write in any language, so
they didn't get a start, and also dealing with the trauma issues in
terms of helping to catch up kind of thing. The other issue is
because so many people have records, that they're hung around the
neck. We're trying to get to them, and see what we can do to undo
CORIs, and things like that. From that standpoint, growing in
terms of certain aspects of the population.
SK:
What do you mean undoing CORIs.
MC:
Undoing CORI. In other words, trying to seal records, and things
like that, for job opportunities.
Page 26 of 35

SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
SK:
I see.
MC:
And that sort of thing. And, when you look at it from the
standpoint, also, from ICE standpoint. When you have someone
that 20 years ago, because they were part of a gang, and got
involved in some melee or something, and is now married, and has
children, and working, and stuff, that they cannot get away from
that. That there's kind of the law enforcement government pegging
them, and not being able to move away from that. From the
standpoint of change that we're seeing Asians in the DA's office.
There are a few Asian police officers. We're seeing among our
ranks and attorneys, as well as in other professions that they are
moving beyond Queen Street, and those areas.
SK: [01:05:40]
Right.
MC:
In Lowell. Moving out, and doing those things.
SK:
Are you seeing very many probation officers of Asian descent, or
other corrections officers?
MC:
We have a few within the Lowell community that are Asian and
stuff. But, I still think that there's more diversity. They're aiming
for diversity in the ranks of law enforcement, which I clump as the
police, as well as DAs, probation, courts, things like that.
SK:
So it's gotten better, but it could be more better.
MC:
Right. One of the things, and I'm really happy about this, and I
hope that is there could be really more education put out there for
us. As I said, I try to do that too, communicate to us what the
culture of differences are, how to handle cases and deal with
people so that we are doing it effectively, and being able to work,
and also just being seen as trusted, as part of their team.
SK:
In addition to sort of more people, more cultural diversity, have
you seen any improvements? Like the kinds of work that you were
trying to do by yourself, explaining cultural differences to a judge
or to a probation officer, have there been any kind of efforts to do
that maybe more systemically, or more broadly?

MC:
Well, a little bit. I'll never forget, we had a kid at the Angkor
Dance Troupe come in, brought a few of his friends. He's doing a
dance on the New Year, with an ankle bracelet, a GPS bracelet
because he was on probation.
SK:
Oh my goodness.
MC:
And stuff. So, I know in our juvenile court, we try to. That there's
been some attempts to make people aware that there's a couple
festivals, and things like that. But, there's always arrests at those
and sometimes people go, "I'm not going in there for that."
SK:
Right. I see. I see.
MC:
It isn't as widely spread as the folk festival, for instance, as
publicized and stuff. I saw this year, like for instance, that is the
Cambodian New Year the same as Chinese New Year?
SK:
The Cambodian New Year is in April.
MC:
That's what I was thinking, that it's different. Versus, there's some
functions and different things that go on for Chinese New Year. In
fact, we go down to Boston.
SK:
Right, in February.
MC:
There's the dragon, the lion dance and stuff down at one of the
restaurants down here. And Westford Academy, for instance, has a
large number of Chinese students, or Taiwanese-Chinese, and so
they had a whole thing in the school. I had never seen that at the
Cambodian New Years celebration. Maybe, but I'm not aware of it
up there, which would make us ... Those kinds of cultural events,
really publicizing them, and making us aware that there's those
holidays too.
SK:
Right.
MC:
Which I would really like to become more aware of.
SK:
But it's not sort of saying the training for police officers, or for
district attorneys. I don't know. Things like, I mean the broad term
Page 28 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
is cultural sensitivity training, or those kinds of things. That hasn't
maybe increased since the '80s.
MC:
I don't think that it has. I don't think that it has. I think Vanna
Howard. Do you know Vanna?
SK: [01:10:01]
Yes. She's fantastic.
MC:
Well, I know her through her husband, Greg. In fact, I was at her
wedding. Has done quite a bit to try to do, but she can't do
everything.
SK:
Right.
MC:
I think she's on the same list with you, isn't she? For being
honored.
SK:
I think that the same things, that there's a lot of parallels between
sort of like the law enforcement, and education, and healthcare.
That there have been improvements since the '80s and the '90s, but
we could still have further to go.
MC:
One of the things that I also became aware of, if you go into
healthcare, into one of the big Boston hospitals, our interpreters
that we use in the courts are also medical interpreters, and they're
being called in there to interpret, and the insurance has to pay for
that and everything. Versus you go to Lowell Community Health
Center, there's no official interpreter there for people who are
going. It's really interesting to me that there's such a disparity in
healthcare making sure that people understand. We now have a
language line that we can use, so that when I'm with someone I can
do that. But I'm also, I'll ask, "Is this your dialect?" They'll say,
"Yes," and sometimes I wonder whether they are understanding
everything.
SK:
Right. The way to check is to ask. But then if you're not
understanding the language, then-
MC:
Yeah, if the interpreter's saying, "Do you understand everything
I'm saying," and everything, and then I try to get them to repeat it
back.

SK:
Yeah.
MC:
But it's this kind of thing that I'm really excited about, because I
think that will help them more. Like that event that was held by the
Cambodian Children of the Light.
SK:
Yeah, Light of Cambodian Children.
MC:
Yeah, because a lot of attorneys and stuff went, and there were
politicos, and things like that. It was an event to show up at in
Lowell.
SK:
I see.
MC:
And so there became an awareness.
SK:
It was an annual, it was a dinner?
MC:
It was an annual dinner. Yeah.
SK:
I see. They invited like the city council, and just some attorneys,
and then like-
MC:
Yeah, there was a lot of local politicos there, and stuff.
SK:
I see.
MC:
That's one of the things that I think that we had a little more
trouble getting that, versus Spanish, there was always a Spanish
interpreter in the court. For the Asians, it was sort of classified.
The Hispanics did the drugs, the Dominicans, and we had the
gangs and stuff.
SK:
Right. I see.
MC:
But it was somewhat of an issue, because one day they were a
victim, particularly in the young kids, and one day they were a
defendant. I remember sitting at a table once with a group of
attorneys, trying to figure out who didn't have a conflict with this
one, because we had represented this one before because they were
a victim this time because of the clashes.

SK:
I see. Because of the interconnectedness of the community.
MC:
Mm-hmm [affirmative]. But we see a lot more businesses. Not just
the smaller... Like there was one small grocery store, and that was
it.
SK:
Right.
MC:
Now there's-
SK:
There's Cambodia Town, and restaurants everywhere. Right.
MC:
Right, so that's really nice.
SK:
Yeah.
MC:
Was this the kind of stuff you were looking for?
SK:
Yeah. This was fantastic. This was great. We wanted to get the
perspective of someone who had worked with the community,
particularly with the youth.
MC:
It was a struggle, because of the language, and the cultural
differences, and the mistrust, and you're dealing with the trauma
that they all went through in terms of government authorities,
whereas other groups didn't go through that trauma to get there.
Then being pegged.
SK:
For those issues, like the mistrust, and the kind of dealing with the
second generation trauma, do you see... Or, let me put it this way.
Would you say that your Southeast Asian clients now are about the
same number, or fewer?
MC: [01:15:04]
Fewer.
SK:
Fewer.
MC:
Fewer.
SK:
The kinds of issues that you're seeing versus particularly the '80s
and '90sPage 31 of 35

MC:
The kind of issues we're seeing now are the same kind of issues
we're seeing across the board with depressed teenagers not feeling
like they fit in their school, or not going to school, disrespecting
parents, that kind of stuff. Being on the run, not coming home,
getting into fights.
SK:
Right. In some ways, there are those issues of sort of being a
second generation refugee, and being an ethnic minority. But in
some ways maybe seeing them more becoming like normal
American juveniles of various ethnic backgrounds.
MC:
They are, but then I still think they're ... What's interesting is these
kids, I don't ask so much, "Where were you born?" Because that's
my nice question not to say to an immigrant, "Where were you
born?" I say, "I want to start from the beginning." They're, "Okay.
I don't have an immigration issue." But I'm not sure they know the
stories.
SK:
Right.
MC:
That they really know all the stories.
SK:
Yes, actually when we met, first found this archive, it was the
older generation saying that they were worried that the younger
generations didn't know about the culture, but also didn't know
about the stories of being a refugee, the refugee camps, but then
also early resettlement, and the struggles of those times, because
people don't want to talk about it.
MC:
Right. That's why we call it Irish lace curtain. It's like, okay I'm
done with that.
SK:
Yes.
MC:
To some degree, I get that. But, also, to not forget, somebody did a
film that was on PBS. I saw it. Who had gone back, that was just,
brought it home. Brought it home.
SK:
Was it Lost Child?
MC:
Was it? The name of it. It was... I'm trying to think. I think UMass
Lowell was part of the project. I can't remember what the name of
Page 32 of 35

Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
it, but it went through kind of history of Pol Pot, the history of
Cambodia, and went to numbers of the temples. Are you familiar
with that film?
SK:
There's a couple of films it could be, so I'm not sure. It could be
Monkey Dance or Lost Child.
MC:
Monkey Dance maybe sounds like ... Sounds either that or because
I've seen the Monkey Dance and that is so fascinating. Fascinating.
SK:
Is there anything else that we haven't had a chance to talk about or
cover? Anything that sticks out in your mind?
MC:
One of the things, this is really kind of funny. But when I went to
the home, as much as I thought there was some distress. But when
I got to the end of a family or working with a family, very often I
was invited for a meal.
SK:
Yeah.
MC:
"I want to cook for you," whatever. So I had curry. I remember
sitting on the floor in one apartment, and it was like a plastic
tablecloth, and she was like macheteing the chicken, and we did
the curry. I was like, "I'm going to be here all night doing curry
from start to finish."
SK:
Wow.
MC:
But she wanted to teach me how to make curry. But it wasn't
unusual that when I went, versus most other places I'll say, "Okay,
I'll bring a pizza." You know, when I'm going to see with a kid I
told you food with teenage boys. I try to do that, "Okay, I'll bring a
pizza," or something. That's kind of a modernization now that they
do that, but they're like, "Oh, I want to cook for you. That was
always something that was very interesting to me.
SK:
Right.
MC:
Just as a comparison, I grew up Catholic and I often though,
"Okay, stand up. Sit down. Say this prayer," whatever, and
everything. That was it. I didn't agree with everything they did.
But, in going to Taiwan with my boyfriend and the temples, and
Page 33 of 35
�UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL
SOUTHEAST ASIAN DIGITAL ARCHIVE
ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 2019-ONGOING
UML 17
Maryellen Cuthbert, Oral History #19.01
seeing how they were much part of the life. You stopped in, and
you could be blessed by it. Then you had an issue, you went to this
temple. You prayed to that. You just threw it down. You brought
fruit. It wasn't money. Things like that. Then, his family even had a
temple. There are sayings about how to live your life. Not, "You've
got to honor God. You've got to honor God." It's, "This is how a
good man or woman lives."
SK: [01:20:06]
Right.
MC:
So, I was looking for that. I started looking for that in Cambodian
religion and stuff, and I didn't trip into it until I recently had a
client that had a lot of tattoos. They were prayer, and they were
sayings on him, because I bring makeup, because people still don't
understand to cover tattoos when I'm trying cases.
SK:
Right.
MC:
But, they don't talk about religion.
SK:
Right.
MC:
At all.
SK:
Right. The temples are such a big part of life for most Cambodians
and Southeast Asians. I was raised Presbyterian. If you don't know
about the Buddhist temples, and how much of a part of everyday
life they are, you don't, until someone starts telling you.
MC:
I understood they were a big part of their life, but I wasn't seeing
them like you've seen some of the other Asian homes will have
something, and I didn't know whether sometimes when you're
oppressed, and you've fallen away, or whatever. That was one
aspect that I hadn't tripped into versus other Asian homes.
SK:
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Having the kind of like shrines and things
like that. It was less visible in the houses you visited.
MC:
Very often in the Cambodian homes, you see the big colorful
picture of I think the matriarch or whatever dressed, and they look
so regal or whatever. You'd see those on the wall.

SK:
Right.
MC:
That was interesting to me.
SK:
Even though that there was an initial mistrust, or maybe it was
difficult to communicate, but that there was a sense, especially for
people wanting to cook for you, that there was a sense that people
were very welcoming, and they wanted to sort of show gratitude
for your attempts to help them.
MC:
And then more so then any other. I'm telling, you had mothers who
couldn't speak English, who would get on that phone, and try to
make an appointment, and you're like, "Oh my God."
SK:
Right.
MC:
That was the group that did that, despite the fact there was that
initial mistrust.
SK:
Right.
MC:
Anyways, I can't wait to see this, because it is fascinating. It starts
horrific, but it's moving towards a different.
SK:
Great. Thank you so much.
MC:
All right.
SK:
Let me see. I want to make sure I do this right.

Water Festivals in Southeast Asia
Written by Sarann Nuon and Sophy Theam
For many centuries in Southeast Asia, the Water
Festival is an annual event celebrating the connection of
water in all aspects of life - food, agriculture,
spirituality and economic prosperity.
Although held at different parts of the year in different
countries, water has always represented life and
goodness to the peoples of Southeast Asia.
For instance, in Cambodia, the Water Festival begins on
the first full moon at the end of October or November,
at the time when the Mekong River reverses direction
after filling up the Tonie Sap, the country's "Great
Lake". When this phenomenon occurs, the downstream
flow leaves behind an abundance of fish, marking a
time for celebration and festivities. This includes the
influx of over a million people from the countryside
into the capital of Phnom Penh to witness the three-day
boat racing event in which over 400 teams rowing 5070 feet long boats compete.
In Thailand, the Water Festival is celebrated within the
"Songkran" or the traditional Thai New Year. Just as in
the countries of Cambodia and Laos, the New Year is
celebrated from April 12th through the 15 th . However,
in Thailand, the celebration of Water is also
incorporated into the festivities as it is believed water
will wash away bad luck and bring in good luck for the
incoming year. Therefore there are a lot of water
throwing aimed at everyone. And unlike Cambodia, the capital city pretty much empties of people as residents travel to their hometowns in
the countryside to be with their relatives and close friends. Major celebrations take place in cities such as Chiang Mai and Sukhothai where
traditional festivities are maintained.
And in Laos where although there is water throwing during the New Year in mid-April, their Water Festival, known as "Bun Nam" and
more similar to Cambodia's "Bon Om Touk" is held around October also with boat racing ceremonies in riverside towns and cities such as
Vientiane, Luang Prabang, and Savannakhet. Much smaller towns may hold their boat races on National Day which is on December 2nd .
Back here in the United States where many have now called "home", the celebration of water continues in the Lowell Southeast Asian Water
Festival. Now in its Ninth year, the event draws 50,000 - 60,000 people from all walks oflife to the banks of the Merrimac River. Flocking
from around the nation as well from Canada, France, and even Australia, the festival is a time to meet friends and acquaintances, enjoy all
sorts of ethnic foods reminiscent of the street vendors in the markets back home, and experience a fusion of ethnic performances and
activities including boat racing on the 50 -70 feet long boats that have been seen dotting the Mekong River for centuries. Water is the
celebration of life. Water is Life!

Since its inception in 1984, the CMM has played an important role in the success of
Cambodian and other ethnic minorities here in Greater Lowell. The CMM offers
many important programs such as ESL courses, job training, youth programs, and
cultural events. These programs have proven to be invaluable tools for a community
comprised of refugees from war torn countries struggling to survive here in America.
The CMM is located at 165 Jackson Street, right in downtown Lowell.

Translated by Sophy Theam from "Khmer Folk Tales: Part 1"
Published by the Buddhist Institute, Phnom Penh, Cambodia . 1959.
There was a man with four sons who learned to
master four different skills. Son Number One knows how to
eat well . Son Number Two knows how to sleep well. Son
Number Three knows how the law well. And Son Number
Four knows his way around women very well. The father
brings his sons to meet the king, informing his royal highness
each of his son's capabilities. The king agrees to keep the
man's sons in his palace.
One day the king wanted to test the son who could
eat well by having him eat a large number of dishes prepared
by the palace cooks. Son Number One does as he was
asked until he got to a soup in which the king had put a
fingernail scoopful of uncooked water. The king asks him,
"'Mly did you not eat that soup?" And the young man
responds, "That soup has a fingernail scoopful of uncooked
water. That's why I did not eat it." The king then thinks to
himself, "That young man really knows how to eat well!"
The king then tests the son who could sleep well.
He had his servants prepare a clean room with a nice
mattress and decorative sheets.
When the room was
prepared, the king places one strand of hair under the sheets.
And when night came, the king summons Son Number Two
to go sleep on that bed. The young man lies on the mattress
and immediately gets off the bed. The king asks him, "How
come you laid down on the bed and suddenly got back off?"
The young man tells the king, "Your majesty, there was a
strand of hair under the sheets that made me get off of the
bed." The king thinks to himself, "That young man really
knows how to sleep well!"
There was one day when a man in the kingdom had
died in an open field with no signs of beating or scarring of
any kind. The king orders the courts to investigate the
reason behind this death, but the courts did not come to a
conclusion . His Majesty the King then remembers of Son
Number Three who was well versed in the law. He asks the
young man to look into the matter of the death and find out
what exactly happened.
The young man then asks
permission to have full authority while he was conducting this
investigation, which the king grants. He then sets out to the
place where the deceased man lay and calls for a meeting
with all the townspeople . The man warns the villagers,
"Tomorrow, do not go anywhere outside of your own village.
I want everyone to attend the funeral of this deceased man
who had died in the middle of the rice fields. Everyone, with
the exception of the blind and the handicapped, must be
there ."
During the cremation of the dead body, while the
flames were burning at its highest point, a young woman was
crying nonstop. The young man notices her and takes her
aside for questioning. After a long while, the young woman
finally gives up and tells the young man the truth. "I was with
that man for the very first time the night he died . When he
died, no one had beat him or anything like that. Just before
we went to bed, he had asked me to get him some water to
drink. I did not go out of my room because I was afraid my
parents might know about us. So I took a silver bowl and
held it outside my window to catch the rainwater that was
coming down our grass roof. After he drank that water, he
died." 'Mien the young woman finished her story, the young
man thinks to himself, 'This young woman did not have any ill
intent towards that man because they had just been together
that night. Dying in that manner, there must be some
poisonous animal on top of that roof."

After the funeral, the young man then goes to the
young woman's house and climbs to the top of the roof. And
sure enough, there was a King Cobra coiled right on top of
the woman's bedroom. He beats the cobra with a club and
brings it to the king. "The reason that man died without any
bruises or scarring is because he had drunk rainwater
poisoned by this cobra's venom. And this young woman had
offered the water to the man unknowingly." The king then
praises the young man to himself, "This Young Man really
knows how to investigate well."
Shortly thereafter, a rich man in the kingdom passes
away, leaving a beautiful young wife behind. This young wife
was resolute in not taking another husband. Upon hearing
about her, the king commands all of the ministers of the
palace to try to court her into marrying one of them. But no
one succeeds. The king then thinks, "It must be true then
that this young widower will not want another husband. But
maybe it is because the level of the ministers is too low for
her. Perhaps I can win her over." The king then offers a visit
to the widower's house and tells her from the ground,
"Tonight, I will be joining you. Please prepare your house for
me."
That evening, the widower prepares the bed for the
king, and dresses up a maid to be with the king as if she were
the widower.
When the king arrives, he inspects the
bedroom and satisfied, says to himself, "This must be the
room of the widower's. That's why no one dares to enter
here." He goes to the bed where the maid was sleeping and
hugs her, saying, "I have won over you!" As proof of his
victory, he lightly bit one of her cheeks and left the woman to
go back to his palace.
He sent a messenger to summon the widower to the
palace the next morning. The next morning came, and after
telling the ministers to look out for the bite mark on the cheek,
the widower and her maid entered the main chamber of the
palace. The maid sat just behind the widower. The king's
messenger had been ordered to look for the mark on the
widower, but he found none on the beautiful woman who was
sitting in the front. He informs the king, "There was a bite
mark on the woman that was sitting in the back, but I saw no
sign of your mark on the widower." The king then blames
himself for being so reckless as to not inspect the woman he
was with carefully the night before. He says to himself, "This
is a very smart woman. It's impossible to find anyone to win
her over!" He then thought of Son Number Four.
The Young Man who specialized in woeing women
was asked to meet the king . "Do you think you will be able to

After being married to the woman for three or four days, the
Young Man brings his new wife to the palace for all to see. This
time, both the king and the ministers praised him. "This Young
Man does indeed know how to win over a woman!"

successfully court the rich man's widower? If you need anything,
let me know. I will give you anything you need to assist you." The
Young Man answers back, "Your Highness, I will not need any
valuable possessions to help me. I just would like an old white
fabric to wear and a pot of cow bones that I can carry with me
always."
After leaving the palace, the Widower prepares her
deceased husband's funeral at the temple. When the body was
fully cremated, she collects his ashes, puts them in an urn and
displays them for all to see and pray for. The Young Man, clothed
only in old, faded white fabric arrives at the temple where the
funeral was taking place. He then begins wailing in sorrow about
his deceased wife, whose bones are always with him.
The Widower's funeral guests are startled to hear the
man sobbing like a child, They ask him, "Why are you in so much
sorrow?" The Young Man replies to the caretaker of the temple,
"When I see the funeral of the Rich Man, it makes me think of the
death of my dear wife who died so horribly and painfully. It
reminds me of my separation with my lovely wife. I have died with
my wife a long time ago, leaving everything I have except for her
bones, wandering around everywhere in sadness." The Young
Man then asks the Caretaker if he can spend the night on the
temple grounds. The Caretaker tells him that he cannot grant him
permission because the Widower is the owner of the grounds and
he would have to ask her first.
After listening to the story of the sorrowful man, the
Widower agrees to let him sleep for the night and even has her
servants prepare food for him. That evening, the Widower stays
at the temple until the prayers are finished while the Young Man
pretends to be asleep. After the prayers, the Widower goes back
to her house. Seeing this as an opportune time, the Young Man
takes his "wife's bones" and lays them next to the ashes of the
Rich Man,
The next morning, the Widower comes back to the
temple to see the Young Man sob endlessly. "Someone has
stolen my wife's bones! Who has taken my wife's bones?
Someone has stolen my wife!" The Widower approaches the
Young Man and asks him, "What is the matter?" The Young Man
replies, "Someone has stolen my wife! Your dead husband must
Feeling a pang of

disappointment that her dead husband may have stolen the
Young Man's wife, the Widower leads the Young Man to the main
temple where her husband's ashes were, and sure enough the
urn of her husband's ashes and the bones of the Young Man's
wife were right next to each other!
Upon seeing that, the Young Man says to the Widower,
"You see, your dead husband HAS taken my wife as his own!
The only fair thing is for me is to take you as my wife in return!"
Being unable to get herself out of this situation, and also feeling
disappointed that her dead husband was not gentlemanly enough
to think about the sorrow his own living wife was going through, in
addition to witnessing her husband taking someone else's wife
right in front of her, the Widower agreed to become the Young
Man's wife as Revenge ,

LOY KRA TONG - "Festival of Light"
On the full moon night of the twelfth lunar month (November), the tide in the rivers is highest and the moon at its brightest,
creating a romantic setting ideal for lovers. The Thai people choose this day to hold the 'Loy Kratong' festival, or the 'festival of
light.' Loy Kratong is one of the two most recognized festivals in the country.
Loy Kratong is probably the most picturesque and beautiful of all Thai celebrations. 'Loy' literally means 'to float,' while 'kratong'
refers to the lotus-shaped receptacle which can float on the water. Originally, the kratong was made of banana leaves or the
layers of the trunk of a banana tree or a spider lily plant. A kratong contains food, betel nuts, flowers, joss sticks, candle and
coins. The making of a kratong is much more creative these days as many more materials are available.
The Loy Kratong ritual is a simple one. One needs only to light the candles and the joss sticks, make one's wishes and let it
float away with the current of a river or a canal. On that day, thousands of people will gather beside the canals and rivers. With
kratong in hands, they light the candle, put some coins in the kratong and silently make a wish, and carefully place their
kratongs in the water and release them to the current. They watch intently as the float drifts silently downstream, hoping that
the candle will not go out. Its flame is said to signify longevity, fulfillment of wishes and release from sins. Altogether it is
considered a romantic night for couples or lovers. Couples who make a wish together on Loy Kratong are thought to stay
together in the future.
Origins
Different legends surround the origins of Loy Kratong. The most popular version is it was an expression of gratitude to the
goddess of water 'Phra Mae Kongka' for having extensively used, and sometimes polluted, the water from the rivers and canals.
It is also in part a thanksgiving for her bounty in providing water for the livelihood of the people.
Some believe the festival originates from Buddhism. They say the offering of flowers, candles and joss-sticks is a tribute of
respect to the footprint of the Lord Buddha on the sandy beach of the Narmaha River in India, as well as to the great Serpent
and dwellers of the underwater world, after the Lord Buddha's visit to their watery realm. It is possible that this is derived from a
Hindu festival that pays tribute to the god Vishnu, who meditates at the center of the ocean.
Others believe that the floral kratong is offered to the pagoda containing the Lord Buddha's topknot, which was cut off at his
self-ordination and is now in heaven. Another explanation is that it is a way to pay respect to one's ancestors.
Whatever the true origin, the practice of Loy Kratong first began in the ancient kingdom of Sukhothai in
the 13th century. A young queen named Nang Noppamas was believed to be the one who made a
small boat laden with candles and incense and floated it down the river. The name Nang Noppamas
has been associated with Loy Kratong ever since.
Today, Loy Kratong offers a unique occasion to celebrate. It is a good time for people to make wishes
and look to the future as they float their floral offerings along the waterways.
*Special thanks to Wat Buddhabhavana for making all of the candle floats once again for this
year's "Candle Float Ceremony" to be held on Friday, August 19t\ at the Lower Locks canal
located off of the Middlesex Community College Campus.

�August 19, 2000
Dear friends,
We would like to welcome you to the 4th Annual Southeast Asian Water Festival in Lowell, MA.
1999 and 2000 Lowell Southeast Asian Water is brought to you by the Southeast Asian Water
Festival Committee. We hope you will enjoy this year festival.
Imagine colorfully designed, hand crafted wooden boats, some as long as 60 feet, holding 25 rowers
racing side by side, speeding faster and faster on the river. With the guide of the drumbeat, each
team member in their colorful uniforms paddle together in harmony. Members uniting with the
mission to take back the pride and winning trophy to their hometown. Imagine thousands of spectators along the riverbank cheering for their teams. Both the old and the very young journey from as
far away as the countryside (in some cases by foot) to get a glimpse of this event. Everyone enjoys
the sideline entertainment and activities along the banks of the river. In the capitals of Lao, Cambodia and Thailand the water festival (held every November along the Mekong River), is a major event
celebrating the connection between water and life.
Thousands of miles away, Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival celebration is a unique bridge to
carry on this centuries-old water festival tradition that is celebrated back home. Initiated by the
large Southeast Asians immigrant community that resides here in Lowell, Massachusetts, today it is
a celebration of cultural diversity and appreciation for the river. It includes traditional Southeast
Asian boat races along the Merrimack River, parades, over 40 traditional and contemporary performances and live bands on two stages and children's games and educational activities focusing on
water quality. There is also much ethnic food, Southeast Asian crafts and arts, and informational
booths staffed by health, human service, civic, environmental and local business organizations.
Noted for it's wide participation, uniqueness, and unifying community event, the Lowell Southeast
Asian Water Festival project was highlighted in Lowell's recipient of the 1999 All-American City
Awards. This festival is a partnership of many community groups, including the Cambodian Mutual
Assistance Association, the Lao Family Mutual Association, and Lowell Heritage State Park. Many
other local organizations and individuals have contribution and dedicated their time to make the
fourth annual festival the largest and most memorable one.
For the first time in this year's festival, eight (8) teams will be using two new boats and additional
four (4) teams will be using the two (2) smaller boats. The two new boats, recently arrived from
Laos with 60 feet long and accommodating up to 25 rowers each . Last year, there were two small
boats brought from Cambodia and accommodating up to 13 rowers each. Long before today 's
competition, rowing teams have devoted energy to practicing and learning how to maneuver these
boats in rhythm .
Join us and in celebrating the beauty of the rivers, the blending of traditions and cultures, and unity
of our communities.
Very Truly Yours,
Thel Sar and Paul Kesith
Co-Chairs of the Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival Committee

Boat racing is an integral part oi the Southeast Asian water festival tradition. Racing teams from different provinces and
towns compete for the right to represent their temples in national championships held every mid-November on the Mekong
River in the capital of Cambodia and Laos.
In Lowell , we have adapted this time-honored tradition to the Merrimack River. Joining our 32 feet long Cambodian
boats are two new 70 feet long Laotian boats.
Boat races are scheduled every few minutes beginning at 10:00 AM. Races begin upstream toward the Belgrade
boathouse and end near the main stage at the Sampas Pavilion. Race results will be announced at the Awards Ceremony
at the Main Stage at 4:00 PM.

B OARD OF DIRECTORS
Welcome to the 11 th Annual Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival. We hope
that you enjoy the variety of Southeast Asian food , merchand ise, performances,
and arts and crafts that you will encounter throughout our two-day celebration.
The Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival was initiated in the summer of 1997
by a number of community members, including but not limited to Mr. Samkhann
Khoeun - former Executive Director of the Cambodian Mutual Assistance
Association , Dr. Linda Silka - Director of the UMass Lowell Center for Work,
Family and Community, Chath pierSath - Community Activist, Blong Xiong Lao Family Mutual Assistance Association , and Cheryl West and Khan Chau of
the University of Massachusetts, Lowell campus, among others. Their concern
had been the environmental cleanliness of the Merrimack River as well as
surrounding bodies of freshwater.
Mr. Sayon Soeun (President)
Mr. Phone Phetvixay (Vice President)
Dr. Phala Chea (Treasurer)
Vatsady Sivongxay (Clerk)

Khamtane Khamdy
Buntha Krouch With the intention of bringing a thousand year old tradition from Cambodia,
Prinya Somma/a Laos, and Thailand and tying it to water education here in the Greater Lowell
Ghia Srithong area , the Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival was begun and has
progressed to what it is today. As a result, approximately 60,000 participants
are drawn to this event annually, with attendees coming from all walks of life
Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association
(CMAA) and ethnicities throughout the United States, Canada, France , and Australia.
INCORPORATORS
To celebrate the 11 th anniversary of the Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival,

Light of Cambodian Children, Inc to teach young children on the importance of clean water in our everyday lives.
LCC) After all, without the water in both the Mekong River and the Merrimack River,
we wouldn't have been able to begin this un ique tradition.
Wat Buddhabhavana of MA

Water and Our Lives
Written by Bopha Tum
Water is life. To people from different background and religions, it embodies birth and
rebirth . To the Southeast Asian people, water not only signifies renewal , but it
symbolizes cleanliness, purity, and prosperity. For Southeast Asians, water connects
all aspects of being: food , agriculture, spirituality, and economic success. Whether it is
known as Bon Om Tuk in Cambodia, Baun Son Hae in Loas, or Keng Loeur in
Thailand , for centuries the Water Festival has been an annual celebration of cleansing
and rinsing past sins accrued during the old year to replenish for the new year.
The Water Festival is the most popular and
strident celebration in Southeast Asia.
Millions of people from remote areas of the
countries journey to the capitals to compete
in the boat races, cheer for their favorite
teams, and participate in the singing ,
dancing , and traditional games. Every year, they put thoughts of work or struggle
aside to be thankful for the rivers, lakes, and ponds that are the main source of their
livelihood and economic development and pray for good fortune , longevity, and the
opportunity to regenerate.
For Southeast Asians, whether this important and fun-filled festivity takes place in their
mother countries or the countries they now call home, it is essential for them to preserve their tradition , take time to celebrate
the event, and share and teach younger generations of Southeast Asians and people from different cultures and background of
who they are, and their values and beliefs.
Each year, on the third Saturday in August, Cambodians and other Southeast Asians come together to Lowell , Massachusetts
to celebrate the Southeast Asian Water Festival along the Merrimack River and reminisce about life along the Mekong River.
Like the Water Festival in Southeast Asia, the Water Festival in Lowell is a time for Southeast Asians living abroad to take some
time to be thankful of all their good fortunes, pray for better living conditions for people
back home, and allow people from other cultures to experience a part of their tradition ,
and learn what makes them who they are. After all, water is life to many of us.
The Water Festival is a time for fun, relaxation, and self-renewal , but it is also a time
to collectively work together to help keep the water clean and safe for future
generations and enable them to continue the beautiful tradition that has been past
down from our ancestors.
"Hanuman" is the popular White Monkey
General from the Indian epic the
Ramayana, now adapted into many
Southeast Asian versions .

Old Crane and Brother Crab
In the middle of the forest, there was a pond that Old Crane inhabited as his
home . One day, Old Crane was too weak to go searching for food . He acted
very worried so that everyone can see.
Brother Crab who was nearby noticed Old Crane looking desolate so he asked
him, "Why are you so sad looking , Big Brother? Why don't you go look for
food?"
Old Crane laments, "Oh , Brothers and Sisters! The fish in this pond had been
my food source! But I had overheard some humans talking with each other about a fisherman who will soon catch
al l the fish here! If there is to be no more fish here, then my death is near approaching! That is why I am
worried ...too worried to think about my hunger!"
All the fish discussed among themselves and decided that Old Crane
might have some ideas to help them . "Oh , Brother Crane," all the fish
called out, "Do you have any plans to help all of us?"
Old Crane tells them , "The only way of keeping all of you safe is to get
you to another body of water. I can bring you to a pond nearby one at a
time. I have seen that pond . There are not that many humans there. "
All of the fish were very happy with that plan and agreed to have Old
Crane transport them to another pond. One by one, Old Crane carried
the fish out of the pond and one by one, he ate them all before returning.
Once all of the fish were gone from the pond, there was only Brother Crab left who asked Old Crane, "Oh Brother
Crane, please bring me to that pond as well. I want to go live with the rest of the fish. "
Old Crane was ecstatic that Brother Crab wanted to go with him ... he had never eaten crab meat before! So he had
Brother Crab hang onto his neck while he flew him towards a mound of land . But Brother Crab was very attentive
and , while in the air, noticed fish bones scattered all over the place. "Huh! Am I coming so soon into my death?" he
thought to himself. "No, I must find a way of saving myself!"
When Old Crane and Brother Crab were on006Cy a few feet from landing , Brother Crab took his claws and
squeezed Old Crane's neck until Old Crane was no longer breathing. And that was the end of Old Crane's life.
Brother Crab had to find another place where he can continue his life. But upon finding no other pond nearby, he
went back in the direction he came from and luckily found his old home. From then on , Brother Crab passed down
his true story about not trusting old cranes to the fish in the pond and he lived a long, happy life.

INCORPORATORS
Welcome to the 10th Annual Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival. We hope
that you enjoy the variety of Southeast Asian food, merchandise, performances,
and arts and crafts that you will encounter throughout our two-day celebration.
The Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival was initiated in the summer of 199y
by a number of community members, including but not limited to Mr. Samkhann
Khoeun - former Executive Director of the Cambodian Mutual Assistance
Association, Dr. Linda Silka - Director of the UMass Lowell Center for Work,
Family and Community, Chath pierSath - Community Activist, Blong Xiong Lao Family Mutual Assistance Association, and Cheryl West and Khan Chau of
the University of Massachusetts, Lowell campus, among others. Their concern
had been the environmental cleanliness of the Merrimack River as well as
surrounding bodies of freshwater.
With the intention of bringing a thousand year old tradition from Cambodia,
Laos, and Thailand and tying it to water education here in the Greater Lowell
area, the Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival was begun and has
progressed to what it is today. As a result, approximately 60,000 participants
are drawn to this event annually, with attendees coming from all walks of life
and ethnicities throughout the United States, Canada, France, and Australia.
Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival,
(CMAA) a special water education section has been included in the program book.
While the entire event is revolved around boat racing, we also feel that it is vital
to teach young children on the importance of clean water in our everyday lives.
Light of Cambodian Children, Inc. (LCC) After all, without4t1e water in both the Mekong River and the Merrimack River,
we wouldn't have been able to begin this unique tradition.
Lao Family Mutual Association (LFMA)
Wat Buddhabhavana of MA
Organizing the Water Festival is a big endeavor. It takes many volunteer hours,
Thai Association of Boston ongoing year-round effort, and dedicated board and committee members. To
join in the effort to support this important annual event, please consider making
EVENT COORDINATOR a donation or sign up to volunteer for future years. Donations can be sent to
Sambath Bo Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival c/o CMAA, 165 Jackson Street, Lowell,
MA 01852. A volunteer form is included in the back of this book as well for your
convenience. Please visit our website at www.lowellwaterfestival.org for more
information.
Last, but not least, have a safe and fun time, and thank you for making the 10th
annual Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival possible!
Best wishes,
Sayon Soeun, President
Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival, Inc.

'Vater and Our Lives
/ritten by Sopha Tum
\later is life. To people from different background and religions, it embodies birth and
~birth . To the Southeast Asian people, water not only signifies renewal, but it
ymbolizes cleanliness, purity, and prosperity. For Southeast Asians, water connects
II aspects of being: food, agriculture, spirituality, and economic success. Whether it is
nown as Bon Om Tuk in Cambodia, Boun Son Hae in Loas, or Keng Loeur in
hailand, for centuries the Water Festival has been an annual celebration of cleansing
nd rinsing past sins accrued during the old year to replenish for the new year.
The Water Festival is the most popular and
strident celebration in Southeast Asia.
Millions of people from remote areas of the
countries journey to the capitals to compete
in the boat races, cheer for their favorite
teams, and participate in the singing,
dancing, and traditional games. Every year, they put thoughts of work or struggle
aside to be thankful for the rivers, lakes, and ponds that are the main source of their
livelihood and economic development and pray for good fortune, longevity, and the
opportunity to regenerate.
For Southeast Asians, whether this important and fun-filled festivity takes place in their
1other countries or the countries they now call home, it is essential for them to preserve their tradition , take time to celebrate
ie event, and share and teach younger generations of Southeast Asians and people from different cultures and background of
1ho they are, and their values and beliefs.
ach~
r, on the third Saturday in August, Cambodians and other Southeast Asians come together to Lowell, Massachusetts
the Southeast Asian Water Festival along the Merrimack River and reminisce about life along the Mekong River.
ike the Water Festival in Southeast Asia, the Water Festival in Lowell is a time for Southeast Asians living abroad to take some
me to be thankful of all their good fortunes, pray for better living conditions for people
ack home, and allow people from other cultures to experience a part of their tradition,
nd learn what makes them who they are. After all, water is life to many of us.
> celebrate
he Water Festival is a time for fun, relaxation , and self-renewal, but it is also a time
collectively work together to help keep the water clean and safe for future
enerations and enable them to continue the beautiful tradition that has been past
own from our ancestors.
>
"Hanuman" is the popular White Monkey
General from the Indian epic the
Ramayana , now adapted into many
Southeast Asian versions.

"Tevet Dance" - Somaly Hay & Co.
The Tevet Dance is an ancient dance that depicts the majestic and graceful performance of the
God and Goddess in a blessing wish to be bestowed upon the royal family. This dance is
obtained through the ancient legend of Preah Sang. Despite its gracious, delicate, and beautiful
choreography as well as lyric and song, the Tevet Dance is a lesser known type of classical
dance in the royal ballet than others.
Laos Classical Dance - Tamara Phongsavad
"Chouy Chhay Tevoda (Goddess) Dance" - Somaly Hay & Co
"Lum Muay and Lum Essan" - Wat Thai of Boston
"Girls in Line Dance" - Somaly Hay & Co
The dance, revealed by the lyrics, describes the beauty of Khmer dance and culture as well as
the gratitude toward our ancestors, who have carefully preserved and handed down to us this
priceless legacy.
Khmer Flute - Rady Mom
"Tang You Dance" - Somaly Hay & Co
In Cambodia the climate is very warm, with only two seasons, the wet season and the dry
season. All year round, the weather is very war,t,, with the temperature mostly in the high
nineties to low 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Therefbre, young girls like to use umbrellas called ''Tang
You" to protect themselves from the heated sun.
Blessing of the Canal and Preparation for Candle Floating Ceremony (Loy Krathong)
The Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival preserves the most important religious and cultural
traditional ritual-the candlelight ceremony, in celebrating water. Water symbolizes the gateway
to a happy and healthy life. Similar to the candlelight ceremonies held in most Southeast Asian
countries, after dusk monks bless the temple grounds while the community thanks the river
spirits. Shortly after the blessing, the monks and the people gather around the edge of the water
to pray and mak<; vows. As candlelight rafts drift down the river and bum into the darkness, the
burning of the candles signifies the dismissal of bad luck, disease, and bad deeds.

Old Crane and Brother Crab
In the middle of the forest, there was a pond that Old Crane inhabited as I
home. One day, Old Crane was too weak to go searching for food. He ac1
very worried so that everyone can see.
Brother Crab who was nearby noticed Old Crane looking desolate so he ask
him, "Why are you so sad looking, Big Brother? Why don't you go look
food?"
Old Crane laments, "Oh, Brothers and Sisters! The fish in this pond had be
my food source! But I had overheard some humans talking with each other about a fisherman who will soon caall the fish here! If there is to be no more fish here, then my death is near approaching! That is why I ,
worried ... too worried to think about my hunger!"
All the fish discussed among themselves and decided that Old Crane
might have some ideas to help them. "Oh, Brother Crane," all the fish
called out, "Do you have any plans to help all of us?"
Old Crane tells them, "The only way of keeping all of you safe is to get
you to another body of water. I can bring you to a pond nearby one at a
time. I have seen that pond. There are not that many humans there."
AJI of the fish were very happy with that plan and agreed to have Old
Crane transport them to another pond. One by one, Old Crane carried
the fish out of the pond and one by one, he ate them all before returning.
Once all of the fish were gone from the pond, there was only Brother Crab left who asked Old Crane, "Oh Brotl
Crane, please bring me to that pond as well. I want to go live with the rest of the fish."
Old Crane was ecstatic that Brother Crab wanted to go with him ... he had never eaten crab meat before! So he t
Brother Crab hang onto his neck while he flew him towards a mound of land. But Brother Crab was very atten1
and, while in the air, noticed fish bones scattered all over the place. "Huh! Am I coming so soon into my death?"
thought to himself. "No, I must find a way of saving myself!"
When Old Crane and Brother Crab were only a few feet from landing, Brother Crab took his claws and squee,
Old Crane's neck until Old Crane was no longer breathing. And that was the end of Old Crane's life. Brother C
had to find another place where he can continue his life. But upon finding no other pond nearby, he went bacl
the direction he came from and luckily found his old home. From then on, Brother Crab passed down his true st
about not trusting old cranes to the fish in the pond and he lived a long, happy life.

�I
History of the Water Festival
For many centuries in Southeast Asia, the Water Festival is an
annual event celebrating the connection of water in all aspects of
life - food, agriculture, spirituality and economic prosperity.
Water has always represented prosperity, life and goodness to
the Southeast Asian people . Buddhist scripture explains that the
Water Festival is held to thank the spirit of the water, to pray for
evil spirits to go away, and to honor the Dragon King (Naga) who
dwells in the water. The Water Festival is a time to be thankful for
the rivers, lakes and ponds that villagers depend upon for their
livelihood and economic development.
In the capitals of Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam, during
the boat races, known as "Bon Om Tuk in Khmer"; "Boun Song
Hae" in Laotian, "Keng Loeur" in Thai and "Le hoi dua thuyen" in
Vietnamese, people of all ages gather at the. riverbanks to sing,
dance, and watch the boat races for three days each November.
Families journey from remote areas of the country by cars,
motorcycles, bicycles, ox, boats, and in some cases by foot to
take part in the festival. Millions come as spectators, cheering
from the shore. The brave come to compete in the boat races determined to win a trophy for their village.
Rowing teams with their colorful hand crafted wooden boats some as long as 70 feet and holding up to 30 rowers come to
compete with enthusiasm, pride and the dream of winning. Long
before the race, each team devotes many months to perfecting
rowing in unison that is guided by the beating of the drums.
Legend is said that team members must embody the spiritual
power and strength to become one when they row during
competition. After having first prepared the physical condition of
their boats, the teams name their boats to capture the essence of
the supernatural power. Once in perfect condition, each village
boat is blessed by the village monks in preparation for the race.
On the banks of the river, thousands of spectators, young and old
alike, crowd over each other as everyone tries to get a better
glimpse, cheering on the speeding boats that pass by. Everyone
enjoys the sideline entertainments - street vendors and activities
along the banks of the river.
Thousands of miles away, along the banks of Lowell's Merrimac
River, the water festival tradition continues. Just as the rice paddies
that feed the people of Southeast Asia depend on water, so too
did the mills that made Lowell a vital part of the Industrial
Revolution need the waterfalls of the Merrimack River. We are
united in recognizing and celebrating the role of water in our
past, present and future. Water is Life!

FREE BOAT TOURS: Saturday,

Lowell National Historical Park will be
providing free boat tours on the

BOAT TOUR TICKET AT THE
LOWELL NATIONAL PARK AND
LOWELL SOUTHEAST ASIAN WATER
FESTIVAL INFORMATION BOOTHS!
The boat tours will be led by park
rangers and youth interns from the
River Ambassadors Program of the
University of Massachusetts Lowell.
The tours will begin from the
boathouse on the river to the Guard
Locks historic site on the Pawtucket
Canal. The tour guides will explain
how the canals were used for
transportation and industry, as well
as touching on themes dealing with
the environmental history of the
Merrimac River Watershed . This will
be a great opportunity for some in
the festival's great crowd to get out
on the water without being in one of
the event's racing boats . Since the
event thematically centers on the
importance of water to the lives and
cultures of the Southeast Asian
communities , the tours will allow
people to experience the water
theme directly via the boats . It will be
a fun ride and educational , too!

For centuries, t e Southeast Asian Water Festival has been
celebrated in recognition of the _importance _of water in all
aspects of life such as food, agriculture, spmtual and
economic prosperity; and
This year, the eigth annual Southeast Asian Water Festival
is taking place here in Lowell along the banks of the
Merrimack River, the very same river that furnished the
m·ills with the power that made Lmvell the manufacturing
capital ofAmerica and the leader ofthe Industrial
Revolution; and

and take part in this traditional festival by enjoying music,

acclaimed for being the
largest water festival in the
nation, drawing more than
60,000 participants each year.
In 1999, the annual Lowell
Southeast Asian Water Festival

helping make the City of
Lowell the recipient of the
1 999 All American City. The
Festival is now internationally
recognized with participants
from all walks of life and
ethnicities coming from across
the country-and internationally from Canada,
France and Australia .

The annual Lowe!l Southeast Asian Water Festival was initiated in the summer of 1997 to bring
the tradition of boat races and the celebration of water to those who are living in the second
largest Cambodian-populated city in the United States. The purpose and mission of the Lowell
Southeast Asian Water Festival, Inc. is to preserve, protect and share their cultural heritages.
In the capitals of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and South Vietnam, the water festival is an annual
event celebrating the connection of water in a!l aspects of life, food, agriculture, spirituality and
economic prosperity. Families travel from remote areas of the country by cars, motos, bicycles,
ox, boats, and in some cases, by foot to take part in the festival. Thousands of spectators both
old and young huddle around the banks of the river to cheer the boats speeding by. Today, along
the banks of the Merrimack River, the tradition continues.
Tne water festival is an enormous undertaking and requires the hard work and dedication of
many individuals and organizations to help plan and produce this event. It is this effort that
insures that the event has been successful and will continue to be successful in the future.

�FLOATING CANDLELIGHT CEREMONY
Saturday, August 21, 2004
Vandenberg Esplanade on Pawtucket Boulevard
( Loy Krathong)
ANGKOR DANCE TROUPE
While facts regarding the origins and intentions of this
ceremony may vary, few would disagree that it is a joyful
and 'generosity-based' ceremony whose meaning comes
from the hearts of the participants. It is celebrated
throughout Southeast Asia as well as at many Temples
in the West. The floating candles are normally designed
and constructed by the person for the occasion. This 21 st
Century adaptation, while made from different materials,
consists of the traditional candle, incense and flowers.
Before releasing it upon the river, the person makes an
intention, or prayer, to loved ones, living or deceased,
wishing for them all the very best of good health and
good fortune.
We suggest that, no matter what our intention, we might
also add a prayer for our fallen and wounded soldiers
and a prayer for world peace.
Friday Evening, August 20, 2004
Middlesex Community College Plaza
SOMALY HAY & COMPANY
I) Dance of Best Wishes: Also known as the Blessing Dance, this
piece is ritually performed at the beginning of all events and programs
to rid evil spirits and to bring forth joy and happiness to the audience.
2) Glorious Day Dance: A glorious day of ours - The children all
meet in solidarity - For friendship all over the world - Heartedly - not
tiring - Living near and far without worries - Very happy - Solidarity in
hand - Having glory and prosperity during our celebration - The coutry
is properous because we love our nation . Performed by a special
group of adopted children from Cambodia: Emma, Sothea, Srey Dy,
James , Lea , and Solinda.
3) Peace Dance: Somaly Hay is a Cambodian Court Dancer trained at
the Royal Palace as a young child. The art of Cambodian Court dance,
as all the arts of Cambodia, was nearly decimated during the Khmer
Rouge regime in the l 970's. Most of the nation's artists were killed
or forced to flee the country. In her search for spiritual understanding
of the events of September 11, Somaly found her sorrow transformed
to a feeling of peace, and was inspired to create this court dance as
an expression of healing. The intent is to illustrate the power of the
mind , spirit, and soul in achieving inner peace and tranquility . "We
pray to the highest power - asking for peace and prosperity. Our
dance is the gift of peace to all. " Performed by Somaly, Rithmaly ,
Sokphury , Nicole, Brenda, and Sophan.
4) Robam Bopha Lokei - Flower of the World Dance: The words in
the song accompanying this dance are translated as follows : "Usually
everybody wants flowers - For decoration or to decorate the body The sweet scent of the flowers bring prosperity - The beauty of the
flowers is like the beauty of the girls - Everybody admires the flowers
- Even the bees surrounding the flowers want pollen - Flowers fully
bloomed make you want to pick them and turn them into flower
garlands ."
1) The Blessing Dance is traditionally and religiously performed in
the Royal palace to get rid of bad spirits and to ask for the deities '
blessing for the royal kingdom . Today, the blessing dance is
performed at the beginning of all types of performances and
ceremonies. It is a dance of greeting and good wishes . During the
performance, dancers sprinkle flower petals toward the audience.
This is done in hopes of bringing prosperity, peace, and good health
to everyone.
2) The Mokor Dance is named after its central character- a mythical
female sea creature associated with the fertility of rivers, lakes and
oceans. Mani Mekhala, goddess of the sea, in her turquoise bodice,
dances among an entourage of dancers. While all performers are
embellished and bejeweled, male characters are distinguished from
female characters by shoulder epaulets and brocaded pantaloons
(kben). Females wear long brocaded skirts and sequined velvet
sashes across their chests . Together, they manipulate decorated
fans, representing the scales of the Mokor .
3) Hanuman & Sovann Mach ha "The white monkey and the golden
Mermaid" In the Indian epic the Ramayana, called Reamker in Khmer,
the queen Sita was captured and taken to the kingdom of Lanka, far
out to sea. The King Rama calls on a famous army general named
Hanuman, the White Monkey, to help him rescue his queen.
Hanuman and his army of monkeys set about to build a bridge across
the ocean to rescue the queen. But as fast they pile up stones for
the bridge, the stones mysteriously disappear .

(Continued from page 9)
The white monkey general dives into the sea to investigate.
What he discovers is a beautiful golden mermaid named So-vann
Mach ha who has been carrying off the stones in an act of playful
vandalism . Hanuman confronts the beautiful but troublesome
mermaid Sovann Mach ha. He can't help but be dazzled by her
beautiful and falls in love. And while she initially resists,
Hanuman uses a variety of tactics to get her attention and
eventually, as the story continues past this chapter, he wins
her over as his partner in the fight against evil.
4) Swva Pol - the Soldier Monkeys: In Cambodian legend,
monkeys always fight evil; in fact there are army soldiers. After
a victorious battle, the monkey soldiers celebrate . They gather
food for a feast. This monkey dance is lively and acrobatic,
always performed by young boys, who are able to capture the
spirit and quick mannerisms of monkeys. Following the original
dance, the Troupe will feature some new choreography with
elements of modern dance. But if you watch carefully, you will
see the dancers remain, throughout it all, Swva Pol, the monkey
soldiers.

�In Memory of
Noreth Tim Som
(1961 to 1997)
The 1997 Southeast Asian Water Festival is dedicated to
the memory of our late colleague Noreth Tim Som.
Noreth's loss was felt deeply through the planning of this
event, to which he gave so much of his heart. He made
invaluable contributions to the Festival through his
knowledge of the Lowell community and Cambodian
culture.
Noreth was an employee of the City of Lowell Health
Department through a National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences grant. Our thoughts are with his wife
and two daughters.
The Southeast Asian Water Festival Committee would
like to thank Andy Chung, owner of the Lin Garden
restaurant in Dracut, who hosted a memorial dinner
attended by 100 persons that raised funds for Nore th' s
family.
�About the Southeast Asian Water Festival
A Cambodian proverb tells, " Where there is water, there is afish. "
For centuries in Southeast Asia, the Water Festival has celebrated the importance of water
in all aspects of life. Water has always represented prosperity, life and goodness to the
Southeast Asian people. Buddhist scripture explains that the Water Festival is held to
thank the spirit of the water; to pray for evil spirits to go away; and to honor the Dragon
King who dwells in the water. The Festival also asks the water spirit for forgiveness for
"dirtying"the water - for example, by using it to irrigate soil.
Fishermen and farmers rely on their rivers, lakes and ponds for their livelihood. Villages
sprout next to riverbanks. In recent years, water has also come to symbolize economic
development. Khy Taing Lim, director of the National Mekong River Commission, said,
"Water is our soil, our mines of gold, our main natural resource ... we must use our water
to export, and get foreign currency to develop the country."
During the races, known as Bon Om Tuk in Khmer or Boun Song Hae in Laotian, people
of all ages gather at the riverbanks to sing, dance, and watch the rowing races for three
days in November.
In Lowell, the Southeast Asian Water Festival began as a project funded by the National Institu
of Environmental Health Sciences. The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association; the City of
Lowell Health Department; the Laotian American Organization; and the UMass Lowell Center
for Family, Work and Community formed the original working group. The intent was to recrea
a time-honored tradition for the first time ever outside of Asia, to encourage the community to
work toward many common goals; and to learn from the Southeast Asian community about
important environmental and health issues.
Planning began late in 1996. We welcome your comments and look foward to working with ye
for future Festivals. We would also like to thank Mr. Edward Shih-Chung Wang, coordinator f
the Festival. What you see today represents the work of hundreds of people from throughout 0 1
community. We hope you and your family enjoy the day, and we hope to meet you at the
Merrimack River for many years to come.
Ms. Jane Benfey, City of Lowell Health Department
Mr. Samkhann Khoeun, Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association
Mr. Richard Scott, Lowell Heritage State Park

�The Rowing Races
Boat racing is an integral part of the Water Festival in Laos and Cambodia. Racing teams from throughout the different countries compete for the right to represent their temples in national championships
held every November on the Mekong River in Phnom Penh and Vientiane, the capitals of Cambodia and
Laos respectively.
In Lowell, we have adapted this time-honored tradition to the Merrimack River. Our boats, which were
built in Cambodia, are about 30 feet long and hold 16 team members. The racing boats are sponsored in
part by Saints Memorial Medical Center.
Teams representing local businesses and community organizations will race against each other and the
clock. The two teams with the best times will be invited to compete in the final race at 3:50 p .m.
We would like to thank Boat Committee members Tom Benfey, Bill McGowan of the UMass Lowell
crew team, Ken Northrop of the Lowell Parks & Recreation Department, and Richard Racicot of the
Lowell Festival Foundation for ensuring a safe and enjoyable day of racing for all participants.

�Celebrating the Environment

The Mekong and the Merrimack Rivers share a history ofproviding nourishment and recreation for
the people living nea~by. We want to learn from these histories. Many of the groups listed below
have spent time exploring the importance of rivers to our culture. Please come join us as we
celebrate the Merrimack River as our common resource. We wish to remember the late

�The Mekong River
flows down from
Tibet to China and
through Burma;
Laos, Thailand,
Cambodia, and

ater, like the god Siva, is both
the source of creation and a
great destroyer ef life. It feeds
the land from which the rice springs forth; it
sustains the fish in lakes and rivers. It can also
be an implacable force, sweeping away all
before it. From time immemorial, the lives of
the people of Southeast Asia have been dictated by the alternating southwest and northeast
monsoons, steady winds each prevailing for
half ayear. So come the rains followed by
months of parched earth, extremes of flood and
of drought. The cycle of the seasons, both a
blight and ablessing, could never be broken,
but it was the genius of Angkor to master it.
Inheriting the hydraulic engineering brilliance
oJ Funan, the ancient Khmer constructed
canals and reservoirs, moats and pools in a
huge system that tamed water, accommodated
its excess, provided for its lack. In essence,
--
Angkor was created from complete mastery
over water and it was awater-borne empire.
Not one of sailing ships and merchant princes,
but one of irrigation assuring abundant harvests, of canals affording ease of access, even
of water balancing the massive stone temples.
As asymbol, too, water in the moats surrounding the great temple mountains represented the
cosmic ocean. Water was also leisure and
Angkor's aristocracy would have cheered at
boat races, laughed on amorous outings to
pleasure pools. With decline, Angkor lost its
ascendancy over water. Canals and reservoirs
fell into disrepair as the empire weakened and
crumbled. Water, once again unbridled, took
control. More than plants, more than man,
water has undermined Angkor's monumental
glory. Yet, although no longer in exquisite balance, water continues to sustain - as well as to
amuse -life at Angkor.

�Rites & Rhythm
(Reprinted from Cambodia: Th e Legend Comes to Life)
Long and sleek, brightly colored, with curving prows pointing high, the fleet of racing
boats looks from the bottom of the sea to come and play in the water.
Light glints off paddles plunging in unison into the river. Drums beat time. The arms
of dancers undulate gracefully in the bows. Along the shores of the Tonie Sap river, crowds
cheer while ministers, ambassadors and other
dignitaries surround the King in his pavilion.
Villagers gather from far and wide-for many ,
their only occasion to visit their capital-to
encourage their boat to victory. It is the Water
Festival, Cambodia' s biggest and most gala
celebration: three days in November when the
nation puts aside work and care, and honors the
great naval warriors and accomplishments of the
past. The celebration also marks a unique
natural phenomenon: the changing of the flow of
the Tonie Sap, the river and lake system which
is the heart of Cambodia. From Phnom Penh to
Siemreap, this land of water turns into one
grand party-Cambodia's Mardi Gras.
Hundreds of longboats, propelled by
precision-trained crews, compete for honor and
glory in two-and three boat heats along a 1,000meter course to the King's Pavilion in Phnom
Penh . In Siemreap, smaller boats race in the
more confined waters of Angkor Wat's moat.
The Festival comprises three celebrations-a tribute to water, the ceremony of Ok
Ambok (the pounding of the Rice), and Sampeah
Preah Khai (the full moon Prayers) .
The Pounding of the Rice stems from
Buddhist mythology about a female giant who
can predict the weather. Farmers honor her power each year. The Full Moon Prayers are
dedicated to the power of a rabbit that took its own life in a fire to serve as food for a god who
visited Earth as an emaciated old man. According to Khmer mythology, the rabbit symbolizes
fidelity, justice, and honesty . Many celebrants say they can see its form traced in the full moon
by the god . As night falls and the full moon rises, showers of fireworks light up the sky,
exploding with booms and pops that mix with cheers of awe and joy . Enormous balloons are
�"fed to the moon" and a flotilla of "fairy boats" outlined by lights slips gracefully through the
dusk.
At midnight, flatted rice, called ambok, bananas and coconut juice are offered to the
moon, which returns the thanks with a bright smile from heaven. In a Buddhist ceremony, a
line of candles is gingerly rotated three times on a rod: their falling wax reveals the future.
The Phnom Penh festival' is the largest, with more than one million people crowding the
banks of the capital's riverfront, but the Siemreap celebration is growing in popularity. Celebrated in the early 1960s at Angkor Wat, presided over by King Norodom Sihanouk, the
festival was revived at the temple in 1994, with fishing boats racing. Two years later the boats
were replaced by special, smaller versions of classic longboats. The Siemreap festival offers
spectators the splendid sight of racers competing as dusk falls while the setting sun transforms
the towers of Angkor Wat to radiant spires-as cicadas and birds hum in the forests.
The Water Festival commemorates an era when naval forces fought for control of a land
dominated by water, dating as far back as the Funan era (3 rd to 6th century). King Jayavarman
VII hailed his armada's victory over a Cham fleet in 1181, a battle vividly depicted on wall
carvings at the Banteay Chmar temple in Banteay Meanchey provinces and Bayon temple in
Siemreap. During the 16 th century, King Ang Chan I moved the capital to Lovek in southern
Cambodia.
Today, these and other victories are reenacted in the races. The first round-with seated
owers-represents the elite forces who were sent into battle first, and are followed by the
anding rowers, the second wave of any sea-born attack: all storming towards victory.
The sight of 300 boats gathering at the golden pavilion on the Tonie Sap is the festival's
ax. You will feel the glory of the festival in your heart-still beating quickly to the pace of
: drummers.

�The Tradition of Water Festival Boat Building
(Reprinted from Cambodia: The Legend Comes to Life)
When Chang 'hann Hoy broke into two pieces, people thought it was because the rowers were too
strong. They said the rowers paddled the long, sleek racing boat so fast it just split apart- the bow end
sped away from the stern, leaving one half in Siemreap and the other half far down river in Kompong
Chhnang.
Fast it was. Chang' hann Hoy was so named after it brought food from Kompong Chhnang to monks
at Angkor Wat 150 kilometers up the Tonie Sap river. And the food-chang ' hann-was still hoy- hot!
And the boat was fast because the rowers were strong and rowed with great speed, so the story goes.
But Monh Sok knows that the rowers weren't the reason why the legendary long boat split in half.
Sok, a 51 year-old boat builder from SiemReap, knows Hot Food broke apart because it was built so
..
well-built according to the ancient formula devel1 ~ oped centuries ago to make the war boats of the
. • ..
. ancient Angkor empire.
Built for speed, and Hot Food was built so well,
so sleek, so fast, it just raced away from itself.
Surely, the ancient formula makes fast boatsones so sleek, graceful and brightly colored. It is this
ancient formula that produces the boats that every
November fill the Tonie Sap at Phnom Penh and moat
at Angkor Wat in Seimreap for the Water Festival
races, Cambodia's grandest celebration.
Monh Sok says the key to the formula is an
ancient rule: "Kor romaing, bath kantaing, kantuy
.. puos kray"-"the neck of a fallow deer, the bottom of
a basket, the tail of snake named kray." The formula
works like this: The deer's neck is handsomely round.
The bottom of a basket is roughly flat. The Kray
snake's tail is smaller, "like chicken's chest," Sok
says.
The chief workman recites this formula and tells
his workers to carve their boat accordingly- neck of
fallow deer curving gracefully up at the bow, basket
flatness shaping the hull's bottom, thin snake tail
sweeping back from the stem. "If the tail is too big,
the boat will leap," Sok says. The boat builders rush
from stem to stem, and then pull themselves away to see the sides of the long craft to make sure that the
rule has been complied with properly.
The boat is made. You have to entirely answer the requirements of the ancient formula. But what
happens if you use koki thmar wood to make this boat? It will sink, of course. According to the veteran
wh
�boat maker, it is not enough just to follow the rule- the workmen must also select the best quality wood.
They should use the nom1al koki tree, not koki teuk, pchek neung dei"- "koki and water; Pch ek and
earth." But koki is expensive, because it can last hundreds of years- and sometimes hard to find . If the
boat makers cannot afford the best, they should choose another high quality wood, maintaining the strictest
traditions, and thus, produce the best boats. These provinces have also produced many victorious crews.
Building, painting, naming, ra<>ing, and funding the boats-which can cost over $2,000-all of these
things involve a great commitment by communities. The boat usually represents a Wat where it is stored in
a place of honor during the year-revered with incense, flowers and offerings- under an open-air rooftop
which respects the spirit guardian of the vessel. Whole villages typically accompany the boat to the Water
Festival to cheer it on with great pride and honor.
The full-sized racing boat is 20 to 25 meters long and 1.5 meters wide. It carries 40 rowers or more,
plus a helmsman and perhaps a dancer or musician who keeps the rhythm at the bow. Because the moat
around Angkor Wat is much smaller than the Tonie Sap or Mekong river, the boats that race at Siernreap
are smaller, only 13 to 18 meters long.
Normally, five to ten people build a boat. Producing a finished vessel caulked with a special mixture
of resins and chopped hemp sack, can take five months or more. Strict rules and spirits influence the
u
aming process which is done under consultation with elders and monks; and it is not uncommon for a
·ame to be born of a dream. "Olden Garuda", "Tiger Descending the Mountain", "Powerful White
/oman", "Powerful Black Woman", and "Magic-eyed Woman": many of the names resonate the female
1 of the vessel.
irit
The building of a boat is accompanied by ceremonies at each stage- entering the forest, cutting down
: tree, and starting the carving. The biggest ceremony is reserved for when the boat is launched for the
·t time.
The ceremony commemorates the spirits of the Naga king and Neang Hing, who preserves the water
Iland. Bananas and decorated coconuts are placed before the boat, five candles are lit, along with
:nse sticks, and traditional music is played. And the monks bestow their blessings.
It is at this time that the final and most significant feature is put in place: the eyes. For it is the eyes,
ch awake the boat's spirit and give life to the racers.
,,,, , Making a racing boat, says Sok, who has
{ -" been a boat builder since the age of 18,
H
takes a lot of thought, patience and work.
But look at the sleek boats as they race past
you on the river or the moat- look at the
high deer neck at the bow and the snake 's
tail at the stem, see the eyes that embody
the spirit, and the light flashing off 40
paddles, listen to the beat of the rhythm,
you will know the work was well done.
Far Left: The hull 's bottom is carefully shaped like the
boltom of a basket. Left: The boat is painted with
colors carefully chosen by village elders and monks.

�August 21 , 1999
Dear Friends!
Welcome to the Third Annual Southeast Asian Water Festival and welcome to the City of Lowell the All America City! We are so happy that you are joining us today to celebrate our cultures and the
environment in which we ar~ now living today.
People have always drawn to rivers because water is life. For centuries, people throughout Southeast
Asia have gathered along the major rivers to celebrate the importance of water in all aspects of life:
food, agriculture, spirituality and economic prosperity. Today, Lowell's Southeast Asian Water
Festival transports this ancient tradition to the banks of the Merrimack River, some thirty thousand
miles away from its homelands.
~
I
I
First held in the summer of 1997, the annual Southeast Asian Water Festival has attracted some 30,000
people in respect, celebration and appreciation for the water. It is the only festival of its kind in the
United States. As in Southeast Asia, the Water Festival appeals to people of all ages who come together
for traditional dances, music, poetry, story telling, fortune-telling, food, and craft booths, boat races,
and parades of decorated boats. Beginning with a public ceremony of religious, cultural and community
dignitaries, the day ends with a Water Blessing by Buddhist Monks. Now, more than 60 non-profit
agencies, community organizations and private businesses contribute funds and talent to the Festival.
More than 150 volunteers work hard to ensure that the event is successful. The August celebration has
doubled participation in only two years - from 10,000 visitors in 1997 to more than 20,000 last
summer. Its growing popularity guarantees that larger crowds will participate in this year's event.
The Southeast Asian Water Festival was driven by the leadership of the Southeast Asian community.
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association of Greater Lowell, Inc. (CMAA), which headed the
festival, was created by the Cambodian community leaders in 1984 to provide social services,
employment, educational and cultural programs to Lowell's newest immigrants. With the technical
assistance from the Center for Family, Work, and Community at UMass Lowell, the cultural and
religious groups throughout the city are represented in the festival planning. The Laotian Family
Mutual Assistance Association, Lowell Community Health Center, temples, churches, neighborhood
residents and the Heritage State Park representatives are actively involved in organizing and carrying
out the Festival project.
In late June of 1999, the Southeast Asian Water Festival project was highlighted as the one of three
projects in an application to the National Civic League at the All-America City Award j ury competition in Philadelphia. As a result, Lowell was one of the ten cities designated as an "All America
City", and the only city in the East Coast. This is the most prestigious contribution from the Southeast Asian community to the City of Lowell, which is home to the second largest Cambodian
community in the United States; the largest one being in Long Beach, California. It is estimated that
35,000 Southeast Asians reside in the Lowell area and make up almost one third on the City's
population.
We hope that you will enjoy participating in our Third Annual Southeast Asian Water Festival as much as
we are enjoying organizing it. Also, while you are in the area, please don't forget to see many other
establishments in our City as well. Water is life, and there is a lot to like about Lowell!
Sincerely Yours,
Samkhann C. Khoeun
Executive Director, Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association

�Boat racing is an integral part of the Southeast Asian water festival tradition.
Racing teams from different provinces and towns compete for the right to
represent their temples in national championships held every mid-November on
the Mekong River in the capitals of Cambodia and Laos.
In Lowell, we have adapted this time-honored tradition to the Merrimack River.
Our boats, built in Cambodia, are 32 feet long by 4 feet wide and hold 12 rowers.
Boat races are scheduled every few minutes beginning at 11:00 AM. Races begin
upstream toward the Bellgarde boathouse and end near the main stage at the
Sampas Pavilion. Race results will be announced at the Awards Ceremony at the
Main Stage at 4:00PM.

HISTORY OF WATER FESTIVAL
The Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival is dedicated to the
preservation, protection and sharing of the cultural heritages
of the Southeast Asian communities in Lowell, Massachusetts.
In recent years, it has begun to encompass other emerging
Southeast Asian groups inside and outside of Lowell as well.
Every third Saturday in August, approximately 30,000-40,000
people from around the world travel to Lowell to
celebrate water as it is celebrated in Southeast Asia. They
come for the blessings, food, crafts, performances and the
competitive boat races.
In 1997, the first Lowell Southeast Asian Water Festival
celebrated the culture of Lowell's many Cambodian citizens. In
2002, the festival began to encompass many other Southeast
Asian communities as well. Representatives of Lowell's
Cambodian, Thai, Vietnamese and Laotian communities are
now incorporated into the Lowell Southeast Asian Water
Festival. In the past few years, more Southeast Asian cultures
have been included as well.

Making a Difference
Over the seven years that the Cambodian Community Health 2010 program opened its doors and
hearts to the Cambodian community a number of changes have taken place that lead to the improved
health of the individuals that make up the community.
For those who do not speak or read English it may be difficult to comprehend the vast medical
system and learn how to navigate all the steps for obtaining and then following through with medical
care. These steps include, the purpose for taking medications as recommended, making and keeping of
appointments, the importance of understanding about your disease or illness, and the significance of
being able to call 9-1-1 in an emergency
We have seen changes in the community, changes for the better. Individuals who at one time
required the assistance of an Advocate to help them manage the health care system are now able to
manage it on their own. These individuals have made changes in their activity levels, food choices, taking
medications, consistency with appointments, and knowing how to manage some of the risks and symptoms
that trigger certain diseases, while also learning how to manage their current illness
To some of us these changes may seem small. However many individuals, who over the last seven
years have learned these new skills and now experience these healthy modifications in their daily lives,
have found these changes invaluable.
In their own words, the community gave us an understanding of their personal health challenges.
They shared how learning about health and illness and adopting healthy behavior changes made a
difference to them and their families.

l~Xl~CIJTIVI~ l)IREC'l,()R'S IIESSA(;E
I am pleased to be able to report at the end of our 23 rd year that the
CMAAhas many positive things to share with the community. We are
now settled in our new location, and for the frrst time, the CMAA is located
in the heart of the Cambodian community, where we are more accessible
than ever. In spite of a challenging move from our old location at 165
Jackson Street to our new headquarter at 12 0 Cross Street Lowell, MA,
our organization still successfully served over 1000 people with health
related services, ESL and GED classes and elderly exercise and social activities, meeting or exceeding the
goals we set for each of our programs. Our agency also collaborated with many other agencies to organize
cultural and civic activities. By working together we have been able to assist the Southeast Asian Water
Festival manage their money, mobilize minority-led agencies such as Light of Cambodian Children, SABAI
and Laos Family Mutual Association to pool resources to address our community issues in a focused and
coordinated way. We were able to increase the number of community members registered and voting during
the last gubernatorial and the 5th District Congressional elections, making the voice of our community heard as
it has never been heard before. We have completed a strategic planning process, meeting with members of the
Cambodian community and the broader Lowell community to learn about the needs of our clients, and of those
who have never received services from CMAA before. We now have a blueprint for creating new and
exciting programs to meet the needs of the Cambodian community. Recently, we received word that we are
going to receive a large grant from the US Office of Refugee Resettlement to offer Individual Development
Accounts, a powerful tool to increase the ability of refugees to purchase homes, open new businesses, further
their education, and to build a better life for themselves, their family and the entire community.
Much work remains to be done. Many Cambodian families were victimized by a fraudulent scheme, many
face foreclosure due to predatory lending and health disparities continue to cause many members of our
community to suffer disease, and even die before their time. These are major problems that we need to
address urgently.
Our Board of Directors, our staff and myself are committed to work with the community, our political
representatives and funders to find solutions to the above problems. We all know it is hard work but if we all
work together, register people to vote, buy from businesses that support our community and educate those
who control the money needed to do this work, I am sure we are equal to these challenges, and that our hard
work and dedication will pay off with a stronger, more prosperous and healthier community for all.

Dear Distinguished Friends, Community Members and Supporters:
Please join us as we celebrate CMAA's 23 rd year of services in the Greater Lowell community. This year has
been a very productive and challenging year as we complete our strategic planning, fmalize the sale of the 165
Jackson Street building, search for a more accommodating and community friendly site, adjust to a new
location, and move forward with our services without disruption. These were no easy tasks, and we have the
hardworking and dedicated staff to thank and appreciate.
Now that we have settled in our new location on 120 Cross Street, we will focus our efforts on the cooperation
and collaboration of our staff, our supporters, and our neighboring agencies/organizations to implement our
strategic plan. We hope that this focus will continue to improve our services and our visibility within the
community.
If you wish to get involved in shaping our programs, services and visibility, please join us. I welcome your
assistance!
In closing, I would like to thank my fellow Board members, Executive Director, staff, supporters and volunteers
for another heartfelt year. Thank you so much for your never ending commitment to our community.
Best Regards,

New Grant from Comcast
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association is pleased to announce that they have received a new grant from
the Comcast Corporation. The grant is for the Education Department's Young Parent Program (YPP) which is a program for
yo ung parents between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one who have dropped out of school. The program 's focus is to
assist the students in becoming self-sufficient. This goal is met by helping students to obtain their GED and then guiding
them as they choose a path toward their future careers.
The Comcast grant enables the CMAA's Young Parent Program to provide an enhanced career development
component. Two former students who have received their GEDS and successfully entered the workforce will coordinate the
workshops. Gina Moscato and Bethany Phrakonekham have already started working with the CMAA's young parents,
exploring career paths and beginning to work on resumes. The ten workshop subjects are: Career Paths and Jobs, Setting
up Job Shadowing, Resume Writing, Interview Skills and Role Playing, The Job Search: Newspapers and the Internet,
Building a Professional Appearance, Job Expectations: towards a stronger work ethic, Budget and Personal Finance Part I,
Budget and Personal Finance Part II, Credit Report Rating/Repair.
In addition to the career development workshops, the YPP will continue to partner with the local library in order to
strengthen the students' literacy and love of reading. The young adult librarian and the CMAA's YPP meet every three
weeks for a reading group. Reading is critical for the students' future job prospects, as well as for their families' growth. We
be! ieve improving the students' literacy wit I have a positive impact on their children's lives by introducing reading into the
family.
We appreciate the Comcast Corporation's willingness to help the CMAA's Young Parent Program and thank them
for their generous support!

The CMAA's Education Department And Lowell Adult Education's ESOL Classes
The Young Parent Program (YPP) works with students between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one who have
dropped out of school and are either pregnant or already a parent. The CMAA's YPP is funded by the Department of
Transitional Assistance, Banknorth, Foundation M, the Fay Foundation, United Way, and Comcast. Additionally, the YPP
collaborates with the Pollard Memorial Library and has a reading group that meets every three weeks at the library. We are
grateful to our funders who give us the opportunity to serve these young parents.
The YPP program started its new fiscal year in July, and we have been having an exciting year! One student
completed a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) program, and another student started her CNA training. Still another who
passed her GED went on to a work-readiness training program at Middlesex Community College. Two students who
received their GED diplomas went on to employment. Another student passed her GED and plans to go to Middlesex
Community College. At least three other students are near completing their GEDs and are making plans for their futures. We
expect that the rest of the year will be as exciting and productive.
The classes for English Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) that take place at the CMAA are a part of Lowell
Adult Education . We have been a satellite site of Lowell Adult Education for many years and enjoy this on-going
partnership. After St. Julie Asian Center closed, the CMAA and Lowell Adult Education decided to transfer two English
classes over to the CMAA so that students could still receive instruction. That aspect of our partnership continues. We
offer four different English classes with one taking place at night and three taking place in the day. Over sixty students are
learning English at the CMAA!

The CMAA would like to thank.Acton's First Congregational Church for their continued service to the
Cambodian community in Lowell. For years now, this church has generously donated Christmas gifts for
children who might not otherwise have gifts on C~stmas morning. They even wrap the wonderful gifts that
they give! We thank them from the bottoms of our hearts.
Many others give generously, as well, during the holiday season. For Thanksgiving, these organizations
donate: The Staff at the Rogers School, Battambang Market, Khmer AngkorMarket, Seven Hills Community
Services, DSS staff, United Way, Glidden's House, The Dracut House of Pizza, and many individuals, too .
Between these groups and individuals such items as turkeys, rice, blankets and many other things are donated
for the poor in the community. We are so thankful that they remember those who are less fortunate .
To all of these people who reach out with their hearts, we say thank you.

Community Based Cambodian
Health Promotion Program
Comes to You
From Community Gardening to learning about
Osteoporosis, Hepatitis and Cancer, individuals from
the Cambodian community have taken advantage of
these activities and educational topics conducted by
the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association of
Greater Lowell's (CMAA's) Cambodian Community
Health Program. CMAA received a grant from the
Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) in September
of2006 which enables the staff to provide educational
classes to the refugee and asy lee community as a
whole.
CMAA understood from prior educational
classes that there was a significant need to bring health
education ou t into the community and through
collaborative efforts with agencies such as Casey
Family Services, International Institute, Lowell Council
on Aging, Lowell Adult Education, as well as area
restaurants , such as , Khemara, Pailin City, and
Sanmonorom, CMAA did just that.
Educational classes are conduc ted by a
registered nurse, the Director of the program, and a
nursing student. Both the Director and nursing student
are bi-lingual in English and Khmer. The purpose of
the program is to inform and educate participants about
Osteoporosis, Hepatitis and Cancer and to teach them
the risk factors of the disease and to learn the
preventative methods for minimizing their risks. The
focus is on Prevention and How to recognize the early
warning signs of these diseases. Information is shared
on how a diagnosis is made and the importance of
speaking with your medical provider earlier rather than
later. An emphasis is placed on early diagnosis with
the understanding that chances of recovery improves
with early diagnosis.
In addition to these in dwelling educational
classes CMAA, has held outdoor health fairs at
different sites, such as, the South Common and Pailin
Park, where staff provided educational materials and
free blood pressure screenings.
If you are interested in learning more about
the CMAA Cambodian Health Promotion Program,
please call Dr. Sengly Kong at 978-5961041, Ronnie
Mouth at 978-596-1041 , or Barbara Zipps Glass, RN

Community gardening to improve mental
health and mitigate social isolation
Volume 1, Issue 1
May, 2007
clinic at CMAA, senior social meal at Lowell Senior
Center, and stress reduction field trip. Destinations for
field trips include historical, recreational, and farming
sites.
among Cambodian elders
Community gardening is part of the health
promotion project funded by the U. S. Office of
Refugee and Resettlement to educate Cambodian
refugee / asylees about hepatitis , cancer and
osteoporosis ; it is also
designed to improve mental
health for elders who are
symptomatic of depression.
Over the past few months, participating elders
have taken bus tours to various places including Boston
Museum of Science, Wal-Mart Super center in New
Hampshire, and Amherst Buddhist Temple. The
program has served the total unduplicated clients of
55 Southeast Asian elders . Many of them are
Cambodian Americans. In addition to the stress
reduction trip, elders have received a monthly senior
clinic where they have their blood pressure checked
up, prescription review, and opportunity to ask any
question they might have related to their personal health
care management.
The
gardening
project is the collaboration
between CMAA and a local project named " Lowell :
the Flowering City. Gardening takes place every
Wednesday of the week from 9AM to 12 PM;
participants are involved in every step of the gardening
process including seed acquisition, seed germination,
soil cultivation, and seedling plantation. They are
enthusiastic about the activity because it provides them
with socializing and perhaps therapeutic opportunity.
When asked what they think about the activity,
most said they were very appreciative of being
involved, and especially enjoyed the exposure to fresh
air. One elder said " it is really good that I have a
chance to breath a fresh air under cooling shade of
apple trees and experience a summer breeze." Others
have felt and expressed the same experiences.
Nutrition Education and Cultural
Competency
Eating healthy foods will greatly help reduce
risks of developing certain health problems and/or
further complicating certain diseases including diabetes
and heart disease.
Funded by the Center for Disease Control
and Prevention through a sub-contract from LCHC,
the CMAA nutrition program is designed to increase
knowledge and raise awareness among the Southeast
Asians (SEA) in Lowell of healthy food choices. The
program also provides in-service training for health
care providers working with the SEA group.
Copies of A Guide to Healthy Eating, which is a
manual on how to prepare healthy foods for our heart
has been published in both Khmer and English, and
eight hundred fifty (850) copies of the guide have been
distributed.
In order for their services to be accessible
and to optimize the benefits to the minority community,
providers need to be exposed, at least, to some basic
cultural beliefs and
practices of the group. To
this end, CMAA provides
as part of the nutrition
education
cultural
competency training.
In addition to the activity at the greenhouse,
the CMAA health promotion team considers expanding
gardening activity to the two Buddhist temples in the
area. Container gardening seems to be a viable
alternative, and the team will conduct a preliminary
feasibility into the option for the two temples where
most Cambodian elders congregate.
Stress reduction trip to Museum of Science
CMAA has diversified its services to elders
who are socially isolated and home bound. Funded in
part by the Community Development Block Grant of
the City of Lowell and the
grant from the Farnsworth
Foundation, the CMAA
Elderly Program Service
is, for instance, designed to

July, 2007
Commonwealth Care Prowam
REACH 2010 Prowam
As most ofus know there have been many changes in
Massachusetts regarding healthcare . Massachusetts,
has lead the way by requiring and facilitating health
care coverage for all Massachusetts residents. The
implementation of this law posed many challenges for
our clients. The CMAA was grateful to have received
a grant from Blue Cross Blue Shield Mass Foundation
to help assist clients in registering for Commonwealth
Care. In order to let our clients know about this new
service we have been doing outreach to the community. Brian Chen talked about Commonwealth Care on
his radio show Thinking Out Loud on 91.5 FM. Mr.
Narong Hui, a host of a Cambodian Buddhist Show,
has been extremely helpful in letting the community
know about Commonwealth Care. Also, CMAA's
Health Director Mr. Sengly Kong went on television
to talk about Commonwealth Care. There were also a
few other shows that have been very instrumental in
bringing information about the new insurance laws and
CMAA's services to the CambodianArnericanpublic,
including Koun Khmer and Khmer Sentimental Show.
For the month of July we have assisted 25 walk in
clients in applying for Commonwealth Care. To date
(since March 2007) the total number of walk-in clients
we have served with Commonwealth Care is 123 . Our
Commonwealth care program here at the CMAA has
been very successful and has helped many of our community members in getting health insurance. We continue to help community members with assisting them
in registering for Commonwealth Care.
CMAA has diversified its services to elders who are
linguistically isolated and home bound. Transportation
difficulties effect the ability of Cambodian American
immigrants and refugees on a day to day basis. REACH
2010 has been teaching participants how to use LRTA
(Lowell Regional TransitAuthority) public bus. On July
20, our CMAA/REACH 2010 team trained 14 participants to use a public bus to various destinations. They
went on a bus ride to the Burlington Mall. The outcome of this program is to teach Cambodian-Americans who lack transportation or knowledge about other
sources ofTransportaion and how to use LRTA Public
Transportaion.
Monorom Family S upport Prowam
The Monorom Family Support program assists families who have disabled children. They are currently
assisting clients with the Flex Fund program. The Flex
Fund program is Funded by Seven Hills Community
Inc .. This program assists qualifying clients in filling
out application forms and sending them to Seven Hills
Community Inc. Qualified clients can receive financial support ranging from $500 to $1,000. The process
can sometimes take awhile, so they don't always receive assistance right away. They receive this money
in two payments. The money that they receive is used
for helping them to buy clothing, school supplies, or
any other essentials that their child may need. For the
month of July they have assisted 12 clients with the
Flex Fund applications. This program has been very
successful and has helped a lot of CMAA's clients.
Monorom continues to keep up with all of their appointments and looks forward to another successful
month.

I am excited about the achievements our organization enjoy this past year and the staff,
board members, clients, volunteers and supporters deserve all the credit for the success.
Our health education program has literally saved lives during our health screenings. As
part of our health education classes and health screenings, we have nurses check our
participants' blood pressure and cholesterol level. The results are alarming. In several
instances we had to call the ambulance to take people the hospital because their blood
pressure was dangerously high. We are glad our health education program funding was
renewed by the Office of Refugee Settlement to keep our wonderful community health
education staff reaching out inform people about the importance of regular health check ups.
Over the pass 22 years, the CMAA have successfully assisted many Asian and other ethic refugees to
start their new lives in cities around Greater Lowell area. The services that majority people accessed
were basic but essential to begin building their live here in America such as; English classes, job
training, after school tutoring, translation services, school registrations, etc ... 22 years later, the
community's successes are evidenced in a numbe~ of our community member who have started
businesses, bought homes, graduated from high schools and colleges, and are now contributing to the
economic growth our new country. That being said, the CMAA's work is far from over. In fact, it has
gotten greater. There are still many people needing basic services that we are currently providing. In
addition to the basic services, we now have to help our business community grow, educate the
homeowners the about the financial responsibilities of owning a home, assist our graduates with access
to good paying positions, inform everyone about the importance of voting and political representations
and most importantly, teaching our community how to maintain good physical and metal health. I am
please to inform our community members that our board and staff, with the assistance from the Jericho
Road Foundation volunteers, are working hard to come up with a strategic plan to address our
community's needs during this of time of limited resources. The work ahead is challenging but if we
look at our past challenges, our current accomplishments, and our future opportunities and work together;
we can achieve even greater success.
I am optimistic about the future growth the Cambodian community here in the Greater Lowell area. I
encourage people to continue to work together and register to vote so our voices will be heard at the
policy levels.
Sincerely,
Vong Ros

Dear Fellow Community Members:
It has been a busy year for members of the Board, the chairs of our many committees and the staff at the
Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA) with meetings, planning, and implementing of
services. Our major challenges for this year have been about stabilizing the organization financially
and structurally and creating a sense of urgency to improve, grow and strengthen our agency. For me,
these challenges have been inspiring and they have enabled us to identify several areas that we would
like to improve and ways in which we could tackle them.
The Board and staff are compiling the ideas and feedbacks generated by CMAA board and staff and
members of the public in preparation of our strategic planning. With the help of Jericho Road Project,
we hope to develop a strategic plan that will provide us with the direction to better serve our community.
With the community support and guidance, we hope to make CMAA more visible and more accessible
by: 1) increasing/diversifying our board memberships; 2) continuing to improve our existing programs,
services and outreach; 3) initiating and implementing creative new opportunities and services for
community members to empower each other, to be more self-reliant and to take part in leadership; and
4) planning for and improving the development, training, functionality and effectiveness of CMAA as
an organization and as a resource for the community.
I sense a growing excitement through many of our meetings and hope to extend that excitement to you.
If you would like to help move CMAA forward, please feel free to contact me or Mr. Vong Ros,
Executive Director of CMAA. I urge you to get involved and share your thoughts about what specific
areas you would like to see us work on this year. By "us" I mean you, me and all the members of our
community.
In closing, I would like to thank my fellow Board members, Executive Director, staff and distinguished
supporters and volunteers for making our 22 years of service possible. In addition, I would like to
thank Mr. Hai Cheng for his great leadership, dedication, motivation ana stamina in getting us to this
point.
Best Regards,
Phala Chea

The Health Department is strongly and faithfully
committed to accomplishing the CMAA strategic
mission to improve the quality of life of all
Cambodians in the Greater Lowell area through social,
economic and cultural development programs. Our
vision is to provide a one-stop health resource center
where any Cambodian can find assistance and
information for as many health topics as possible.
Taking pride in serving Lowell Cambodian
community, the CMAA health department is currently
implementing four main healthcare programs including
(1) Cambodian Health Promotion, (2) Cambodian
Community Health Education REACH 2010 , (3)
Monorom Family Support Program, and (4) Nutrition .
( 1) Cambodian Health Promotion Project increases
awareness and knowledge among Cambodian
refugees and
asylees of the
importance of
regular health
screening, signs ,
and symptoms,
treatment,
.available health
care services
and ways to reduce risk factors of Osteoporosis,
Hepatitis, Cancer, and Depression . Funded by
the Federal Office of Refugee and Resettlement,
the project is run by the CMAA well qualified
team of a registered nurse and a Cambodian
nurse practitioner.
(4) The nutrition initiative at the CMAA works to
provide nutrition education to Cambodians in

with Lowell Community Health Center (LCHC).
We have created a Guide to Healthy Eating for
Cambodian Americans, which is designed to
help people with diseases like diabetes, heart
disease, and high blood pressure make healthy
eating choices while still eating traditional
Cambodian foods. The Guide has a section on
shopping, preparing, and eating healthy food
Cambodian foods, and includes 20 recipes of
traditional Cambodian foods that show how
tasty healthy food can be. The Guide is in
Khmer and English, side-by-side. If you are
interested in learning more about how to make
the food that you eat healthier, come to the
CMAA to pick up a copy of the Guide .

Blood Pressure and Health Outreach At Pailin Park
By Sengly Kong, Director ofCMAA Health Department.
On July 27, 2006, the CMAA Health Department organized a Blood Pressure and Health Education Outreach at
a locally known Pailin Park (diagonally opposite the Pailin Plaza) located at the comer of Middlesex and Branch
Streets. The event was made possible through a
partnership between the CMAA Health Promotion
Project funded by the U.S. Office of Refugee and
Resettlement and the Cambodian Community Health
2010 (CCH 2010) funded by the U.S . Center for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Services at the event included blood pressure reading,
distribution of health promotion materials, and an
opportunity for those who have questions about their
blood pressure and other related health issues such as
heart disease, diabetes, cholesterol and others. Before
taking his/her blood pressure, each participant was asked
to read and sign a consent form as a normal standard
procedure.
Our surprising presence was puzzling to all the people who came to the park to play or watch volley ball and
basket ball. Some were walking around our tent and smiling at our team while others were looking at us from
a far wondering what was going on in their volley ball court. To clarify the entire puzzle and wondering, our
staff was quick to reach out and explain them about the purpose of our presence. As a result, most of the
people on the court enthusiastically participated and enjoyed our services. And fifty-one (51) people have
their blood pressure read .
The results of the blood pressure reading were expectedly
encouraging. Most readings were within the normal
healthy range. One man however had a high blood
pressure reading. Our Health Promotion nurse talked
with him about the effects of stress, exercise and salt on
the blood pressure, and explained that the normal blood
pressure reading should be below 140/80. The client
asked if he should see his doctor and the nurse
encouraged him to do so. Overall, the blood pressures
of these sport active individuals were within the normal
range as recommended by the American Heart
Association.
The fact that most of these sport active members have good blood pressure reading confirms the importance
of active life style as one of the most effective proactive measures for healthy being. The finding can be
disseminated to other community members so that they would adopt active life style and become healthier.
In addition to the above finding, this outdoor event provided a great opportunity for the members of the
Cambodian community to gain better understanding of their health, health issues affecting the community,
and available health care services. The model should be replicated other places so that it would generate
aggregative positive health effects on the Lowell Cambodian community that has been disproportionately
affected by CVD, Diabetes. Osteoporosis, and Hepatitis.

classes are offered at the 165 Jackson Street location .
A satellite of Lowell Adult Education, the site offers
two classes that run Monday through Thursday, taking
place each day between 9 am and 12 noon . These two
classes used to be located at the St. Julie Asian Center,
but with that center closed, Lowell Adult Education
and CMAA worked together to find a home for these
classes. Another day class takes place on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday from 9 to 11. Then at night on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday there is a class from
5 pm to 7 pm. Additionally, Citizenship classes are
offered for students in this program .
I like going into the classrooms and meeting
the students, and I enjoy listening as they try to learn
new words and sentences. Truly it is a joy as they begin
to make sense of English, this new language for them .
As I have studied Khmer, I've come to appreciate even
more the students who come before work, those who
come after work and those who fit in their language
studies while children are at school. Our students
juggle multiple respon sibilities, and still they manage
to fit learning English into their demanding schedules.
These E nglish classes are filled with eager students
who work hard at acquiring this new language. Each
week as I try to learn more Khmer, I marvel at our
English learners and their motivation, dedication.

By Judith Dickerman-Nelson
On Thursday afternoons at 3:00 pm, one can
hear sounds of Khmer consonants and vowels being
repeated in the conference room at the Cambodian
Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA). Mr. Kosa!
Suon is the teacher, and he volunteers his time to help
students learn his native tongue. He reads the letters
out loud and the students repeat each sound .
I am one of the students who come each week,
and it is a struggle to grasp the sounds: n 8 ri ill \:t
We say the letters, these consonants, and after we learn
the vowel s, we put consonants and vowels together to
form small words. We practice writing the letters, and
it is difficult to get the shape just right. I feel like a
child who is just learning the alphabet, and I begin to
hav e a better understanding of the students who come
to learn English here at the CMAA. ·
The Khmer language class is free and takes
place each Thursday between 3pm and 4pm. This is
not the only class offered at the CMAA . Lowell Adult
Education and the CMAA have the As ian Adult
Education Project located at the CMAA. Four different

As we wrap up the 20th year of service to our community and enter
into the 21 st year, I would like to thank our past and present funders,
staff, volunteers, Board of Directors, Advisory Board members and the
Cambodian business community for their contributions to the success
of our organization. For the last twenty years, CMAA has provided
important programs such Job training, ESL classes, Young Parents
education, Citizenship classes, Youth outreach and organized many
cultural celebrations. These are vital programs for many people in our
community looking to improve the quality of their lives.
It is not easy to find resources to put these programs together but it is because
many great people fought hard and believed in the mission of our organization
that we have been successful for the past twenty years. I would like to dedicate
this year's annual celebration to our past and present funders and those who
served this agency in any capacity.
Because of the effects of 9/11, the war on terror, the war in Iraq, natural disasters,
and high energy prices coupled with slow recovery in our economy, the business
of serving the "underserved" is extremely challenging. Program funding is being
cut at all levels, putting our poorest community members' greater risk.
As bleak as the funding situation is, I am optimistic that CMAA will find ways to
continue to offer programs vital to the lives of our community members. Earlier
this year we successfully completed a joint staff and Board of Directors' planning
retreat. With the help of the Jericho Road Foundation, we are working with
consultants from Sherbrooke Partners and Ms. Wee Nee to develop a strategic
plan that will create a blueprint for future programs and ensure the success of the
CMAA.
Sincerely,
Vongsaranak Ros
Executive Director

It gives me great pleasure to warmly welcome you to the Cambodian Mutual Assistance
Association (CMAA) of Greater Lowell, Inc., 21 st Annual Celebration. This is another
successful year for the CMAA. Among our many accomplishments is the achievement of
fiscal transparency, board development, strategic planning, new partnerships, and
programmatic restructuring.
The Southeast Asian community continues to thrive and contribute to the economic and
social development of Greater Lowell. Our community members have opened new and
expanded existing businesses, purchased homes, pursued ambitious educational and career
goals, and improved their quality oflife. We have also achieved a milestone in the political arena. I would like to
take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks to former City Councilor Rithy Uong for his remarkable
advocacy and extensive services to the communities of Lowell.
This year the CMAA held its first Advisory Board meeting. Beginning in 2005, the Advisory Board will meet on
a quarterly basis. The Advisory Board is instrumental in strengthening the CMAA and guiding us on the development
of the organization. In addition, the CMAABoard of Directors completed a full year of development activities led
by Mr. Welles Hatch, a volunteer from the Jericho Road Project. As a result, we are pleased to report that we have
made significant improvements in the functioning of the Board of Directors. With assistance from the Jericho
Road Project the CMAA is now moving towards Strategic Planning, which will position the organization for
future growth. A comprehensive strategic plan will also ensure that the organization meets the needs of our
community.
The CMAA faces some difficult challenges as we work to address issues related to building development. With
delays in building development, the structure continues to deteriorate. Subsequently, the cost of operating and
maintaining the CMAA building continues to rise. The CMAA Board of Directors and Executive Director are
fully engaged in addressing this issue and building development will be the top priority for the organization in the
commgyear.
Federal, State, and local budget constraints deeply impact the CMAA's programs. Securing funding for key
programs is a challenge and the CMAA is currently seeking a grant-writer to assist the agency in bringing in funds.
Nevertheless, the organization does have some new initiatives this year and is committed to providing essential
services to its clientele, many of who are unemployed or underemployed. We extend our deepest appreciation to
our funders , sponsors, partners, and other key stakeholders whose support has enabled us to provide these services.
On a final note, this year has been difficult for many of our fellow citizens in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and
New Hampshire. There have been some devastating events throughout the world, especially the Tsunami and
recent earthquake in Asia. For many of our community members, such loss is reminiscent of our own losses
during the Cambodian genocide. The CMAA Board of Directors and staff extend our sympathies to those affected
by these tragic events.
As the CMAA grow in strength and recognition, it is our sincere hope that we continue to work together to reach
our goals. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the donors ,
sponsors, and individuals who helped make this 21 st Annual Celebration successful.
Sincerely,
Hai Cheng, M. Ed, C.A.G.S.
President

CMAA LOWELL MAGAZINE
EDITOR-IN-CHIEFS NOTE
Welcome to Cambodian Mutual Assistance ·
Association's 21 th Anniversary Program Book! It is a
pleasure and an honor to have been given the
opportunity to serve as the Editor-in-Chief for this
special program book again this year. It is also a
formidable challenge, but one that is made easier by
the help of our very distinguished staff members.
Together, we aim to provide the readership with
comprehensive articles and advertisements submitted
by our various contributors and supporters.
A Program Book of this nature is a collective
enterprise, one that is made possible through the efforts
of contributors, reviewers, designers and editors, and
also through the support of other CMAA staff and
Board members. There are several individuals whom
I would like to personally thank for their own
commitment to this publication and to the planning
and organizing of CMAA 21 th Anniversary celebration.
To begin with, I would like to thank Brian Chen who
has devoted much time and energy to completing the
entire layout of the program book. I would also like
to thank Ronnie Mouth, who has been especially
helpful in collecting submissions for this fine work.
ADMINISTRATION -
CAMBODIAN COMMUNITY HEALTH -
To those who submitted articles and advertisements, I
hope you found your work with CMAA staff a
beneficial experience. To all of our regular advertisers,
thank you for being a part of our team effort. I
appreciate your interest and look forward to working
with you again next year. To all of our readers, please
contact us if you have comments, suggestions or ideas
for future growth and improvement.

One student says:
The Young Parents Program at the CMAA is a program
for young parents who have not finished school yet and are looking to get a
GED. This program means a lot to me because it has improved my life. There
are a lot of young mothers in my class who have dropped out of high school and
are now coming here for an education. Most of us need to be here also to get
benefits from welfare. For me, this program was a chance to start over and
make sure I got an education. It also helps me with parenting my child. We're
able to relate with each other with many things because most of us are in the
same situation. This program means so much to me because it has not only
helped me to almost get my GED (this student has passed four of her tests and
just has one more to go) but, I now have a job that I've been working at for a
year. The Young Parents Program at the CMAA has given me a lot of
opportunities, and I am thankful to have come here. It certainly changed my life
for the better.
Another student says:
The Young Parents Program at the CMAA on
Jackson Street in Lowell is a program for young adults from 14 to 21 who are on
welfare and trying to get their diplomas. This is a great school for me because
when you need one on one attention from the teacher, they can give it to you. In
other schools, they just handed us packets of work and expect us to do it without
knowing any of the work. Another thing is when I have family issues or problems
at home there are very good people to talk to and to ask for advice on what I can
do to solve that problem. And that is what the CMAA is all about.
Another student says:
The CMAA means a lot to me. The teachers are
very nice. Judith helps us with our problems. Marion and Judith teach us our
work. So far I see that this school is the only school that provide us transportation.
I made new friends here. Sometime we talk about our experience with our baby
or kids.
Judith Dickerman-Nelson, the YPP Director/Teacher and Marion Best, the
Teacher say:
We enjoy working with our students each day. Tµey come here, trying
to make a better life for themselves and their children, sometimes struggling
with very difficult situations. But they keep trying, and they work hard every
day. We feel honored to have the opportunity to share part of their lives and to
touch their lives in a positive way.

l~Xl~(~U'flVE DIRl~(~'fOR'S MESSA«•E
If we look back twenty or twe1
;ty-five years ago, when we first arrived in the US from the long
dangerous journey of escape from the Khmer Rouge's wrath, we all breathe a sigh of relief
because we are in America now. We will not be tortured, starved, killed and separated from our
loved ones again. At the same time, we felt some fear about our futures in this strange place.
Many of us arrived with little but the clothes on our backs, with no knowledge of English
language, American culture, no job skills and no one to point us in the right direction to get the
help we needed to start our new lives.
In 1984, the CMAA was founded. With its focus on Cambodians helping Cambodians, the
CMAA was a place where Cambodians could go and receive help from people who spoke their
language, understood their culture, and shared their experiences. The CMAA was a place
where one could go for help with renting an apartment, for English classes, for training in job skills that would help one
get a new job. Over the years, the CMAA had many successes. It ran a daycare that allowed parent~ to work, in
households where tvvo incomes were needed to make ends meet. The CMAA offered English classes that allowed many
newly-arrived Cambodians to communicate with their new neighbors; they helped with immigration issues that separated
families; they ran classes and gave assistance for those seeking American citizenship; they provided family counseling for
families under stress from the change in cultures; and they subsidized job placements that helped many get their first job.
The CMAA ran one of the largest youth programs in Lowell, helping hundreds of youth to find their way between
traditional Cambodian culture and the culture of their American classmates.
The CMAA became one of tJ1e leading forces in the preservation of traditional Cambodian culture. The CMAA brought
the \!\later Festival to the hanks of the Merrimack River. Today, this showcase for traditional music, dance and crafts
draws tens of thousands of people from all over the globe. The youth program taught traditional dance and music to
Cambodian youth to encourage the appreciation of tJ1eir rich heritage.
Today, the Cambodian community in Lowell boasts many successful businesses and professional otfices. A large number
of Cambodians have purchased their own homes and are enjoying successful careers. Cambodian parents are now
attending their children's college graduations . Many of these individual successes stem from the efforts of the CMAA.
All of these successes come from the sacrifices of the staff of the CMAA who worked long hours for less pay than many
of their colleagues at other agencies. \Vhen finances were tight, many staff members did not get paid on time. The
dedication of these staff members is an example for all of us.
Our work is not done. \Ve face many challenges, especially after the 9/ 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center
Towers that created many negative sentiments towards immigrants and a floundering economy. These situations made it
more ditlicult for us to achieve our goals. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors and staff are poised to overcome all
obstacles in order to realize the CMAA's mission. We are focusing on our tasks of developing a strategic plan, growing
our programs, investing in our board and staff developments, developing leaders within our community and within our
youth, and working with our partners to complete of the
development of the 90,000 square foot historic mill
building donated by Courier Corp. to the CMAA. I am
very optimistic about the success of our community and
of our organization.
Sincerely,
Congratulations from the G rea te r Lowell
Chamber of Commerce on your 20 yea rs of
success.

�Dear Friends and Supporters,
It gives me great pleasure to warmly welcome you to the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association
(CMAA) of Greater Lowell's 20 th Annual Celebration. Over the past 20 years, the Southeast
Asian community has made great strides in the areas of business, economic development,
education, social welfare, home ownership, as well as in the political arena. Today, we are proud
that there is a Cambodian American City Councilor in Lowell, the Southeast Asian Water Festival
is recognized nationally and internationally for its cultural contributions, and that the CMAA has
made significant improvements in its infrastructure.
Established in 1984 by Cambodian refugees in an effort to assist our community members to
attain self-sufficiency, the CMAA has become the largest Southeast Asian social service agency in Greater Lowell. We are
grateful to the Courier Company for their kind donation of the Hamilton Building that now houses the CMAA. In a
collaborative effort with the Boston-based Architectural Heritage Foundation, our building will undergo major development.
We are also enthusiastic to be a partner in the City of Lowell's JAM Plan.
Federal , State and local budget cuts have deeply impacted the CMAA's programs. These cuts have come at a time when
unemployment and poverty have increased in our community. Unfortunately, we have lost some valuable programs that
would have been instrumental during these difficult times. Consequently, we had to continue providing essential services
to our community with limited resources . The support of our funders, sponsors, partners and other key stakeholders
enabled us to be a viable agency and to continue providing services. And therefore, we extend our sincere thanks to all who
have supported the CMAA over the years.
Most recently, through the auspices of the Jericho Road Project and Sherbrooke Partners, the Board of Directors of the
CMAA conducted an organizational assessment. This important initiative served as a guide toward systematic changes
within the agency. These changes began with diversification of the Board of Directors, financial accountability, and
improving daily operations. Currently, the CMAA has board members with diverse and relevant expertise who are
positioned to lead the agency. In addition, our Executive Director has been a great advocate for the CMAA and an
essential liaison with the public and private sector. Most importantly, the staff has been a core asset throughout the
years. We are proud of their energy and selfless dedication, which is the foundation of the CMAA.
As we grow in strength and recognition, it is our sincere hope that we will continue to work together to achieve our
objectives. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all donors, sponsors, advertisers,
and individuals who helped make this 20th Annual Celebration successful.
Sincerely,
Hai Cheng
Chairman
CMAA of Greater Lowell, Inc.

The Value of Health
By Barbara Zipps Glass, BS, R.N. of CMAA
The World Health Organization defines health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely
the absence of disease or illness.
If we believe that this definition summarizes our well being, then we might want to ask ourselves, what value we put on
health. Do we appreciate health as a positive feature of our lives?
We do not function in this world in the physical aspect alone. Health is more than our physical body. In understanding our
health we need to understand how our emotions, feelings, beliefs and values play a role in both our health and our illness.
What role does knowledge play in our understanding of health? First, we need to be able to understand what information
the medical provider is conveying to us. Next, knowledge allows us to have a clearer understanding of our health status,
illness or disease, in order to ask questions and interpret the new information. Finally, this knowledge allows us to make a
more informed decision in determining what type of treatment we feel is right for us and choose to pursue.

CMAA LOWELL MAGAZINE
Education at the CMAA
by Judith Dickerman-Nelson: Education Director
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association was formed twenty years ago to assist new refugees to the
Lowell area. The programs of this agency have helped many as they've made their home here. The education
department has been a cornerstone of this assistance association, and our anniversary provides an opportunity to reflect
on our growth.
On any given day at the CMAA, one can find educational activities going on. We have a variety of classes
taking place Monday through Saturday, and the range of activities is great. From computer classes to Khmer classes,
from English classes for speakers of other languages to traditional dance classes, from GED classes to music classesthe options go on.
Our computer teacher, Holy Khut, teaches two classes: computer class level I and computer class level II. In
these classes, Mr. Khut introduces students to computers, and in level one he introduces keyboard typing, computer
hardware, Windows, and Microsoft Word. In level two, Mr. Khut goes deeper into Microsoft Word, and teaches
students about cover letters and resumes; additionally, the teacher introduces the Internet and how to use search engines.
We have literacy classes that focus on reading comprehension and writing skills. Here our teacher Marion Best
leads students in activities that strengthen their written communication skills. Ms. Best assists the students with critical
thinking skills, as well, and these skills will help our students as they move into the work world.
One of our longest running programs at the CMAA is the Young Parent Program. This is an alternative
education program for young parents between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one who have dropped out of school.
The program helps students prepare for the GED test by studying the five subjects of that test. Additionally, this
program focuses on life skills, including parenting issues and work-readiness. The aim of the Young Parent Program is
to help the young parents move towards self-sufficiency, and it is our belief that an education and a job will take them
there. Kerrianne McDermott and Marion Best teach in this program, providing classes and personal support. Our bus
driver for this program has been Sak Seang. Ms. McDermott has been driving while Mr. Seang has been sick. We
appreciate her willingness to jump in and drive!
In addition to the Young Parent Program, we have had GED classes for anyone interested in gaining a high
school equivalency diploma. We've had young students who have recently dropped out of high school, and we've had
older students who left high school a long time ago. The various ages represented remind us that it is never too late to
learn.
The CMAA is also the site of a satellite program for Lowell Adult Education (LAE). As a satellite of LAE, we
are able to offer English classes for speakers of other languages (ESOL). We have a morning class and an evening class
taught by Mr. Kosal Suon. Mr. Suon assists students in language acquisition, and the classes are lively and informative.
The CMAA enjoys its collaboration with Lowell Adult Education and appreciates the opportunity to serve students who
need to learn English.
In the past, the CMAA had a youth program that featured peer leaders and dance instruction. Although that
particular program has closed, the agency-always seeking to improve-has begun another program. On Saturday
mornings, a new dance troupe practices traditional Cambodian dance to the sounds of traditional music. The Bayon
Fine Arts Troupe is the newest addition to the CMAA and with its dance instruction and music instruction seeks to instill
a love and respect of Cambodian culture. Additionally, there are Khmer language classes taking place on Saturdays and
students are learning the Cambodian alphabet.
The Education Department has grown over the past twenty years, and we are grateful to the many funders who
recognize the importance of education. I would like to take this time to thank the Department of Transitional
Assistance, the Greater Lowell Workforce Investment Board, the City of Lowell Enterprise Community, United Way, the
Freeman Foundation, the Fay Foundation, Foundation M, the Department of Education, and all others who have
supported us in the past. We look forward to your continued support as we move forward.
In addition to our funders, the education department has collaborated with a number of agencies over the years.
Thank-you to the Department of Health, Alternative House, Women's Services, ~IC, the Mental Health Association of
Greater Lowell, Early Intervention, and so many others. We have benefited from the workshops and information you
have shared freely with our students. Over the years, there have been many who have helped the education department,
and I may have forgotten to name all of those who have been of assistance. Please forgive me and know that we
appreciate all that people have done to make certain that the CMAA's mission to improve lives through education
continues to be met.

CMAA LOWELL MAGAZINE
A Dedicated Servant
By Judith Dickerman-Nelson
Rany Him was born on March 2, 1966, and she died on September 13,
2004. She died much too young, and her life was much too short. But during
this short time she touched many people in many ways. I met Rany for the first
time in 1995 at the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA). This
was when the CMAA was located on 125 Perry Street. Rany performed many
duties for the CMAA, then. I got to know her well, as one of her jobs was
working as the recruiter for the Young Parent Program (YPP). As the director
of the YPP, I was Rany's immediate supervisor. She also worked as the
Coordinator of the Citizenship Program.
Working with Rany, I had the opportunity to see her every day. What I
remember most is Rany's smile and sweet voice. She always smiled, and she
always had something good to say, a compliment that made you happy. Looking
back, now, I imagine Rany must have had a personal motto that she would say
something nice to everyone she met, because every day she did.
At anniversary parties and New Year's celebrations, I would often see Rany dancing the Rom vong.
She would teach me how to hold and move my hands, how to move gracefully around the room. Rany was a
wonderful teacher, and this is the role many people remember her in. She worked with the children of the
CMAA's Monorom program, teaching traditional Cambodian dance to children with Down's Syndrome and
other disabilities. Rany had patience, and I remember watching her adjusting a young dancer's hands so that
they would have the proper form. In the afternoons and early evenings, Rany would work with the youth,
teaching the young men and women the Coconut dance or the Pestle dance. Most recently, she was working
with the Bayon Dance Troupe, and I know she was thrilled when Paula Chea and Sovanndara Neang went to see
her in the hospital. They brought a picture of the kids performing at the Water Festival and a card signed by the
troupe.
Rany took her teaching job very seriously, as she was passing on knowledge of Cambodian dance that
was almost lost during the Khmer Rouge. By passing on her own knowledge of dance, she made certain that
this tradition of intricate, beautiful dance would live on. I remember watching the young dance troupe performing
at various events and seeing Rany watching too, like a proud mother observing her children.
Rany worked for the CMAA while raising her own young children. She and I would speak about our
families, and I know she loved hers deeply. Like many mothers, she juggled the demands of being a mother, a
wife, and a worker. And despite the demands of her busy life, Rany always put on a happy face. I loved to hear
her laugh and to see her joking with friends.
In 1998, Rany left the CMAA to work at the Department of Transitional Assistance. We were all sad
to see her leave, but since my program works closely with DTA, I would still see Rany regularly. Additionally,
Rany continued to come to the CMAA to teach dance. She volunteered her time, generously giving of herself
so others would know the beauty of Cambodian dance. So we honor Rany's memory by remembering her
beautiful spirit, by remembering to always say something nice to people we meet, and by remembering traditional
Cambodian dance.

llappy Cambodian !Yew Year-2002
Year of the llorse-2546 B.E.
The month of April is a very special month for Cambodian-American communities across the
country because April 13th through the 15th are the Cambodian New Year days of celebration. The Khmer people look forward to celebrating their Cambodian New Year in April with
all of the joy, hope and anticipation as traditional January New Year celebrations in mainstream societies.
The Cambodian New Year is a time of renewal and Cambodians celebrate the new opportunities by spring cleaning their
homes, making offerings at the pagodas and chanting with Buddhist monks. They are also known to sing songs of praise and
thankfulness as well as play traditional games, make music, and dance to welcome the new Tevoda (Guardian Angel and the
Animal Protector), which happens to be the Horse for this year.
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association's (CMAA) main activities for this New Year's celebration will be take place
at the Tsongas Arena at 300 Arcand Drive in Lowell, Massachusetts on Saturday, April 13th, from 2:00 PM to 11 :00 PM.
This year's festival begins on the actual day of the first day of the Cambodian New Year. Internationally, Cambodian communities throughout the world-from Cambodia, across the U.S. and other nations will be commence their New Year celebrations
on the same day. Those in Cambodia will celebrate for three days while Cambodians around the globe will probably choose one
day due to timing and other technical issues. Most importantly, the spirit of the New Year will be honored.
With 2002's New Year's theme "A Celebration of Khmer Arts, Music and Dance in the New Century", we are featuring
different aspects of Khmer cultural performances, form the traditional Mohory music ensemble to modem live band, traditional dances to pop concert on stage, comedy acts and musical sets, Bassack Opera, Ayai singing, fashion shows highlighting
the once popular era in Cambodia along with food, arts and craft, and information booths throughout the day for people to
sample, purchase and enjoy. Artists include those from around the country, Cambodia and local area. We anticipate between
8,000 to 10,000 people attending this event.
I would like to take this special opportunity to thanks the Manager's office of the City of Lowell, the Tsongas Arena, the
Massachusetts Cultural Council, Lowell Cultural Council, Lowell National Historical Park, Lowell Telecommunications Corporation and all of the local businesses and individuals who have helped to make the 2002 Khmer New Year Festival a reality
again this year.
May the New Year Tevoda and the Year of the Horse bring you and your loved ones good health, prosperity and much
happiness for many years to come!
'
Happy Cambodian New Year!

and other attractions this year. I invite everyone to come to

Khmer (Cambodian) New Year, or
Chau[ Cl,hnam Thmei (meaning entering New Year)'
By Samkhann C. Khoeun
The Three Days of New Year ...
Every ethnicity on this planet Earth
has its own favorite holidays or festivals . People celebrate their special
events according to their liking and
also at their preferable time. It is part
oftheir history and culture. The Cambodians likewise have their favorite
holiday-Khmer New Year in mid-April. The exact starting
date and timing of the New Year are determined by a Royal
astrologer. The Cambodian New Year usually start from
April 13 or sometime on April 14 and last for three days and
nights afterward.
~·
The first day, called Maha Sangkran, is the entry into the
New Year and is signaled by ringing of a bell or a rhythmic
beating of a drum at the Buddhist temple. The bell ringing is
a signal for the new angel to arrive. Plates of special food
are taken to the temple for the monks, and most people attend a New Year service, where they chant Buddhist prayers
with the monks. Then, different kinds of traditional popular
games are played throughout the first day, creating a merry
atmosphere.

The next day, Mina Bot, takes on a more serious tone. The
second day of the New Year is a time for more praying, for
showing respect for one's elders, and for being charitable to
the less fortunate . Children give parents, grandparents, and
teachers gifts . People offer charity and forgive others for
misdeeds . Cambodians in Cambodia and abroad will pray
for true peace, good health and prosperity for their families,
communities and country.
Why April? Cambodian year begins in mid-April and it is based on
•
. . the lunar calendar- that is, it is
' .jt .
.
'
.. ; linked to the cycles of the moon,
not the sun. April also signals the
end of the harvest, when most Cambodians, who are farmers, can relax and enjoy themselves .
They usually like to have a big festival after a whole seasonlong of hard work. They also look forward to the new season, which is the raining and planning season.
;, .. . ii'·

The New Year festivities end on night of the third day, called
Loeung Sak . Buddhist monks bless small sand hillocks that
people have built around the temple grounds . People wash
statuses of the Buddha with perfumed water to bring good
luck, long life, and happiness. The washing of the statues
also symbolizes the hope for sufficient rainfall during the next
rice harvest in Cambodia.

Angkunh (1) and Chao! Chhoung (2) as well as singing,
playing music, dancing and other entertaining activities
throughout the three event. The New Year's main activities
are usually taking placed at local temples or pagodas because most of Cambodia's festivals are religious in nature.
The Game of Angkunh
The Angkunh is a wield fruit which grows on the trees found
predominantly in Stung Trieng and Kratie provinces in northeast of Cambodia. Measuring about 2 to 2 1/2 inches in
diameter, it is flat on both sides . When it ripens, it becomes
every hard and turns into dark brown color.
The game of Angkunh requires two teams of several players
each. The teams stand some distance apart but opposite of
each other, usually teams making up young men on one side.,
and young women on the other side. Angkunhs are stuck
slightly onto the ground in triangle shape. In tum, each player
of each side, usually with three Angkunhs each, tosses the
fruits, Frisbee style, into the opponent's triangle. The team
wins the game when all the Angkunhs in triangle shape have
been knocked down or when the Angkunh stops in the tri-
At homes, families begin preparing for the New Year weeks before the festival. Houses are
cleaned and scrubbed thoroughly
to remove bad or unclean spirits
still lingering inside the household
and causing mischief. During the
New Year celebrations, people thank the departing Tevada,
or the Guardian Angel and the Animal Protector, for example,

angle. The losing team will sing the song and the wining
tea111 will dance and move forward to receive their prize by
tapping the opponents ' knee with the flat sides of the
Angkunh fruits . The hollow sound it makes usually sends
the players into peals of delighted laughter, especially between young men and women .
The CMAA's Young Parent Program serves students
between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one (up to their
twenty-second birthday). Funded by the Department of
Transitional Assistance, the Freeman Foundation, and the
Fay Foundation, the YPP seeks to assist clients in becoming self-sufficient. We are an alternative educational program, focusing on helping students obtain their GEDs
(General Education Diplomas). Students also study computer and life skills .
This year the YPP has been very busy and filled all slots
The Grune of Chao/ Chhoung
Often seen as an opportunity to meet with the opposite sex,
this game utilizes the ubiquitous Krama, or Khmer scarf made
of cotton . Two teams--one side made up of young men and
another one of young women, play the game on opposite side
facing each other in some distance.
A Krama is rolled into a ball, with a tail hanging out, called
Chhoung. The game begins with a song describing, usually
in flirting and humorous tone and manner, by the young men
side followed by a throw of a Chhoung ball into the air toward the young women side. Before the Chhoung touches
the ground, any young women on the team has to make a
grab for the tail and swing it back at the first team- with aim
of hitting young man whom she/he fancies .
At half time, the young women get to toss forward the
Chhoung ball into the air while the young men get to aim it at
the girls they like. Whoever hit by a Chhoung ball, the whole
team has to dance and move toward the opposite team who,
by the way, has to sing a song as a "punishment".
by December. The state recognized this success by giving us more funding for the rest of the year. We are
pleased to report that five students received their GED so
far, and five students have begun working. Another started
classes at Middlesex Community College. We are proud
of our students and the successful year we have had.
Adult Basic Education Program
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association offers computer classes to the community free of charge. These students have completed their course and had received certificate of completion. At the end of each session there is a
graduation party for the students. At these party we invite
Mr. Samkhann Khoeun Executive Director of the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association to address the class and
congratulate them on their efforts and education.
The classes are very
popular and there is a
waiting list to sign up .

Greetings. We need your help and support for a wonderful clinic
providing mental health Care to the Cambodian citizens of Siem
Reap. This is the first and only mental health clinic in Siem Reap
province. It is run by trained Cambodian staff for the Cambodian
community. Because of its excellent staff and treatment, this clinic
is called Cambodian Community Mental Health Services(CCMHS).
This clinic is famous throughout Cambodia. Patients come from all
over Cambodia to be treated at CCMHS. Unfortunately, as a local
humanitarian organization CCMHS needs your financial support
since it receives no outside support and does not bill the patients
who are primarily poor.
The remarkable thing about CCMHS is that all 8 of the
staff have worked as volunteers since outside funding came to a
stop in 1999. The staff including a Doctor, a Medical Assistant and
6 trained mental health family workers, have donated their time to
keep the clinic open and serving over 1000 patients and families.
CCMHS is a local non-governmental organization which has had a
clinic at the Siem Reap Provincial Hospital since 1996. It was
founded in 1994 in cooperation with the Harvard Program in Refugee Trauma, Cambridge, MA, and with grants from USAID and the
Nippon Foundation.
Unfortunately, no grant money is included in this agreement. The volunteer staff of CCMHS is now appealing for funds so
that they may continue to provide their valuable services to their
patients and the people of the Province.

�ISSUE #13 OCTOBER 2000
CMAA'S KHMER LOWELL MAGAZINE
I would like to take this opportunity to extend our warm invitation to you and your loved ones to
attend the agency's 16 th Anniversary Celebration & Dinner Banquet to be held at Double Tree Hotel
on the 21 st of October 2000, from 7:00 PM to 12:00 mid-night. I would also like to welcome you again
to another edition of the Khmer Lowell Magazine, a quarterly publication published by the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA) of Greater Lowell, Inc. Each and every issue, we try to
share with our readers about the different activities that the CMAA has been working on and/or
planning to do in the future.
.
...
Some important activities worth mentioning here are that the CMAA received, hosted and held meetings with a number of high
profile and dignitary guests including the Unites States Attorney General Janet Reno on September 7'h; the President of
Cambodia's National Assembly, Prince Norodom Ranariddh on September 3rd; the Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Sen on
September 8 th in New York; the Friends Without Borders on August 20th as well as other individuals and groups with different
important projects benefiting to the CMAA and our community. In addition, I participated in testifying on behalf of the Cambodian American communities at a Town Hall Meeting as part of the White House Initiative on Asian Pacific American Islanders
on September 18'\ just to name a few here.
I am very pleased to share with you also that we have completed the renovation of the "Metta Health Center". The word Metta
is derived from the Cambodian word for "loving kindness" which fits perfectly for this health center that will integrate both the
traditional healing and also western methods of treatment, all combined to provide a full range of health and mental health
services to cure sickness with a holistic approach touching the body, mind and spirit of any patient seeking alternative medicine.
The Metta Center will be staffed by professional bilingual and bicultural medical specialists, traditional healers and also Western
doctors, nurses and other health specialists. The Metta Center will be administered by the Lowell Community Health Center, a
nonprofit community health center agency with combined experiences of more than thirty years in providing health care services
to the Low-income community residents in Lowell area, particularly those of Southeast Asian refugee and immigrant backgrounds and also Lowell's large Hispanic community.
I am proud to say, our commitment to developing a Khmer National Arts and Cultural Center, the first of its kind outside of
Cambodia, at the CMAA's 165 Jackson Street headquarters as an integral part of the overall transformation of the former Courier
Corporation Mill building in the "One-stop" Center for social, cultural and economic development Center has been making more
headway lately. After we made presentation to His Royal Highness Norodom Ranariddh during his royal visitation to Lowell in
early September, the prince was very impressed with the CMAA's plan and His Royal Highness promised to help with Cambodian
cultural artifacts including paintings, sculptures, and other items for this Arts and Cultural Center.
Other significant contribution to the CMAA and the Lowell's Cambodian community is the gift of two long traditional racing
boats called Touk Ngor (9Fi ~), or curved boat from Prime Minister Hun Sen of Cambodia forour Bonn Oum Touk (tHl..flfH9fi),
U
I
~ IU
or better known as the Southeast Asian Water Festival we have been organizing here in Lowell for past four years. And four
additional boats will be also donated by the Lowell's Cambodian American businesses for this event as well. These six boats will
be carefully and ritually built and made from Cambodia's virgin wood called Taki (ffi ~g Fi) strictly followed the ancient formulas
just like many traditional racing boats built in Cambodia for this kind of special occasion. Each boat is about 75 feet in length and
four feet wide and can accommodate 40-45 rowers. The boat is colorfully decorated and spiritually named to give life to the boats
to represent their village, temple, and community. For Lowell, it is our diverse community.
The CMAA and its Water Festival partners will be responsible for shipping these boats from Cambodia to Lowell, Massachusetts
for its water festival on the Merrimack River at t he Lowell National Historical Park. Of course, shipping these 75 foot-long
boats will be a big challenge for us, but we are committed to do whatever we can to get them here in perfect condition for the
races, enjoyment, and adoration.
The Boat Committee will be looking into raising enough funds to pay the cost of shipment and other related expenses in bringing
these boats from Cambodia to America. We would like to invite you to be part of this cultural exchange and preservation of this
unique Southeast Asian heritage by making contribution to the CMAA's Traditional Boat Shipment Fund. Please send your
donation to CMAA- 165 Jackson Street, Lowell, MA O1852. Please join us as we celebrate our agency's 16th Anniversary on
the 21st of October 2000 at the Double Tree Hotel. And thank you for your continuous support. Our tasks would not be possible
without your help.
Respectfully yours,
Samkhann C. Khoeun, Executive Director

This is an exciting time to be the President of the CMAA. This month, the CMAA will celebrate its 16th year
of service to Lowell's Southeast Asian community. At times like this, we are inspired to look back over the
past, and one cannot help but be amazed by the changes and progress in Lowell's Cambodian community over
the last 16 years. Who would ever have imagined in 1984 that the year 2000 would bring a CambodianAmerican city councilor in Lowell? Who would have foreseen that Cambodian-Americans would own many
businesses, from markets to jewelry stores, to employment agencies? Who would have dreamed that there
would be Cambodian lawyers, teachers, engineers and other professionals in such numbers? Looking at the
CMAA itself, who would imagine that it would grow from a small group of people in a small office at the
dollar a year
International Institute into a multi-million
multi-service agency with its own historic
building?

youth are going to college, and looking forAmerican
reers, there are many more who are failing

American
business owners, and many more wage earners and professionals, there are still many people in our community who live below the poverty level. There
are still many Cambodian-Americans who cannot speak English well enough to find work. There are still
many families experiencing pain because of conflict between parents and children. There are still many people
suffering from the trauma of many years of war and killing in Cambodia, still feeling the loss ofloved ones to
senseless violence.
In the past few months, the CMAA has begun English classes funded by the Massachusetts Department of
Education, which are open to anyone who wants to learn English. It has received a grant to begin a family
strengthening program to help families in distress through a program that will understand and respect Cambodian culture and values. CMAA has expanded its computer and soldering classes to help more people have
access to good jobs that will allow them to support themselves and their families. With the opening of the
Metta Health Center, the CMAA has made important progress in turning its mill building into a true center for
the community. We will continue to develop programs and projects to help our community become stronger
and more successful. I hope that 16 years from now, we look back on the next few years, and the projects we
are working on now, and say, "Who could have imagined that we could have accomplished that?"

�The Editor's Word
This is the second time the Khmer Lowell
Magazine (KLM) is honored as a special publication, because it is time to celebrate the
16th anniversary of our organization.
The
main goal is to dedicate this whole issue to
our readers.
We would like to provide as
much information regarding our services to
all communities so that they can learn more
about the CMAA - as much as they like.

As the CMAA comes up to her "sweet 16" birthday, the KLM also comes to her 4 th one.
Before 1996, this newsletter was known as the
Cambodian MAA Newsletter of Lowell. The reason we changed the name to Khmer Lowell is
just to make it short so that it is easy to
say and remember - from Cambodian to Khmer,
and just take the words MAA Newsletter out
and the word Lowell is still there.
Also,
the meaning and purpose in serving the community are still the same.
These two sisters,
the CMAA and the KLM, hold hands together
working with no complaints just for the
community's sake.

Unlike some newsletters or magazines that
have their own workers, the KLM has no writers of its own. It comes to life because of
the dedication and commitment of many busy
CMAA staff and Board of Directors like Mr.
Thomas Stylianos.
Although they all have
their own full-time working duties (more than
40 hours per week), they still take more time
out of their own family putting in this work
so that their community can benefit from it.
Moreover, if we look at the list o f the KLM
Committee, we see that a few of them are no
longer working at the CMAA, but they still
contribute their own personal time to support
this meaningful work.

Light of Cambodian Children (LCC) is established on the universal concepts ofpeace, love, compassion,justice, and forgiveness.
LCC has a unique quality in that every member volunteers his or
her time. As a non-profit and non-governmental organization,
we hope to bridge the generation gap within Khmer families so
we can start the healing process in the aftermath ofcivil strife. In
addition to providing humanitarian relieffor children in Cambodia, we will build a future based on non-violence, caring, and
understanding among Khmer descendants. We believe that education is an essential part of that healing process, thus we support and strongly encourage Khmer descendants to pursue and
complete higher education.
The Great Success of MSSP at CMAA
Funded by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) via the
Massachusetts Office for Refugees and Immigrants (MORI),
after two years of hard work, the Massachusetts Self-Sufficiency
Program (MSSP) has ended its mission very successfully.
The MSSP focuses on many important services helping refugees to reach self-sufficiency. It is the combination of two programs, the Employment Services Program for adults ~nd ~he
Youth Services Program for at risk youth. These services mclude, but are not limited to, enrollment in ESL and or native
language class, support services, employment placement, and
obtaining self-sufficiency.
In furtherance ofourmission, on August 12, 2000 Light of Cambodian Children set a new standard for reaching out to the next generation of Cambodian Americans. Light of Cambodian Children on
that Saturday night awarded two individuals two hundred fifty
($250.00) dollar scholarships that will go toward their educational
expense.
The staff has worked very hard regardless of bad time or
weather; they work
day and night, weekends and holidays, and hot or cold. They
always take turns to be with the training classes held on Tuesday
and Thursday nights and almost all day on Saturday.
Out of many deserving applicants, two were chosen to be our first
Cambodian American Scholarship LCC's Scholars. Congratulations!! The recipients were Savuth Phann and Sokunna Thay. Both
recipients are recent high school graduates from Massachu~etts.
Savuth Phann graduated from Lowell High School and he will be
attending the University of Massachusetts at Lowell in the fall,
while Sokunna Thay, a graduate of Cathedral High School will enter
her freshman year at Emerson College in September.
This unprecedented event culminated from many efforts in encouraging our youth to reach their potential as an individual. _Through
our scholarship, we will promote and encourage Cambodian youth
to set high goals for their education and to attain those goals. Light
of Cambodian Children will do our part by reaching out to our
youth to educate them as well as by serving as a motivating for~e
for our next generation. Besides celebrating our first Scholarship
Awards, LCC had a chance to recognize many individuals recognized as role models by our youth. These individuals were chosen
by nominations from youth throughout New England area.
Outreaching to the community and other community services
providers is also done without any complaint. Whenever a cultural event is held, like Cambodian New Year, Water Festival, or
Folk Festival - and mostly they fall on holidays and weekends
- the MSSP staff is always there passing out brochures or flyers to people. The staff attends as many public meetings and
trainings as possible regardless of where they are held - temples,
churches, restaurants, schools, or even on public streets. The
local public media like Lowell Telecommunications Corporation (LTC), Media One, and the Cambodian media (CLPTV,
CCN, KLTC, KCN) are the right hand of the MSSP in terms of
spreading the word about the services to the community.
Following are just some examples of successful activities of the
project. Keep in mind that there are two more months to go
before the project year is ended - so, more numbers should be
added onto each outcome. Most of the areas of the program are
outstanding in terms of reaching the goals. For the whole two
year project, the goal for enrollment is 430, and the outcome ~s
already 653; the job placement goal is 128, and the outcome 1s
312; obtaining self-sufficiency is 76, and the outcome is 122.
With our assistance, some of those employed clients even earn
more than $18.00 per hour with full benefits.
This is our first time in creating and awarding scholarship. Many of
our members are very hopeful that we can increase both the number of recipients and the dollar amount in coming years. Through
intensive, vigorous fundraising and support from individuals, Cambodian American Scholarship will definitely become a fixture of our
organization. Light of Cambodian Children will be not only a place
where our next generation get scholarship money, but another resource for Cambodian youth.
However, the main concern area in the project is to help in reducing/ terminating people from public assistance (the goal is
96, and the outcome is 45). About 100 clients who were placed in
employment by the MSSP were just one short step away from
public assistance programs such as Welfare, Mass Health, or
Food Stamp; without our help, they would be in need of these
services.
As a Chairperson for Cambodian American Scholarship, I would
like to take this opportunity to thank all the individuals, companies,
and agencies that made our scholarship possible. Thank you for
making a difference in our youths' lives. Your time and donations
go a long way for our youth.
Moreover, besides receiving needed services such as legal, education, medical, and many more for their families and them-

selves, the MSSP clients also receive job skills training which is reaIJy in demand at
the present time. From October 1998 to July 2000, about 100 clients were enroIJed
in the computer and electronics/soldering class; 82 had been exposed to the training,
and 79 of them were awarded a certificate of achievement or perfect attendance.
Right after they finished their classes (and some were stilJ in the middle of their
training) many of them already have job offers paying from $11.00 to $15.00 per
hour.
Now, there are about 85 names on the waiting list for the next training. They
had been calJed for a screening test, just to see how much they can read and
write English; 56 showed up for the testing because some of them either moved
out of the state, got a job, or their phone was disconnected. According to the
plan, in the migdle of September 2000, another 30 to 50 clients wiIJ be enrolJed
in the next training cycle. Hopefully, in the beginning of the 200l's, in answering the need of the community in job skilJs training, more classes wiIJ be added.
Then, more students will be enrolJed and class size is reduced so that the quality of learning could be better.
While the activities of the project make the MSSP a successful program in the
state, they also elevate the status of the CMAA among private sectors, with companies ranging from manufacturing to secretarial. Through our program and especiaIJy in terms of employment services, the CMAA is one of the leading agencies
attracting many companies to seek our services while at the same time attracting
Cambodians from alJ walks of life. This in turn puts CMAA on the national map as
welJ as earning respect from local employment agencies.
Last but certainly not least, the MSSP has become a regular program in terms of
training clients regarding rules and regulations of a safe
working environment. The collaboration with the
Merrimack ValJey Project (MVP) has been as successful as the MSSP organization itself.
Therefore, on behalf of our MSSP clients, I would like to
give many
thanks to the funding provider and also to al) hard working
ESP and YSP staffs at the CMAA.

�they received their certificate, or when they talked to their friends
and family. Some even have their pictures taken with teachers
and staffs, so that they can keep the photo as their souvenir of the
great occasion they had with the CMAA. Coordinated by Samuel
Sok, Margaret Tham, Thysan Sam, and hosted by Margaret Tham,
this CMAA special event was written down deeply in the graduates' heart as well in the participants'. It enhances the existed
good relationship of the CMAA and the other communities.
CMAA Graduation Ceremony
On August 12, 2000, CMAA threw a celebration for our graduates
who had recently finished their training in computer, electronics,
and citizenship. This is the second time of the year that our Cambodian community, Laotian, and Vietnamese community come together
to support this job skill training education. Moreover, the ceremony was honored by many more people like the Employment
Service(ESP) and the Citizenship program (CAP) funding provider,
CMAA Board of Directors, CMAA staffs, teachers, graduates, and
their friends and family. There were about 150 people who came
to congratulate those 108 graduates.
The CMAA wishes well to all the past and present
graduates, to people who attempt in improving their
life conditions, and also to ones who are in need of
changing themselves through education.
The above participants included Mr. Tony Chavez- ORI Deputy
Director, Bunrith Lach--CMAA Chairman, Chuck Sar--CMAA Vice
President, Thomas Styllianos-Secretary ofB.O.D., Chantha BinB.O.D, Samuth Korm-B.O.D., Samkhann Khoeun--CMAA Executive Director, Renay Martin- UPS Employment Supervisor. We
would like to apologize to the rest of the good hearted people who
attended the party at that time for being unable to list your name
here, like the representative from the Vocational School of Greater
Lowell, CMAA B.O.D., and other friends . However, your presence at that special moment was very important and will live long
in our hearts, especially in those 108 young and old, males and
females, Cambodians, Laotians, and Vietnamese students.
Among them, 42 were from the ESP; 22 from the soldering class and
20 from the computer class. Although 9 students were not awarded
due to their inability in passing the test, they deserve a certificate
of attendance because they came to the class regularly and they
did well on the class exercise. Six students were acknowledged
as outstanding students.
Since it was held on Saturday, and some of the graduates had to
work, only about 2/3 of the graduates could attend. However, it
was a lovely ceremony with about 200 people participating. Certificates and gifts were given to the students and instructors after
the special guests' speeches were done.
The best thing out of the training is that many graduates have
received employment right away and with a good salary; for people
who are already employed do have good opportunity in bringing
themselves up. They get pay at least $11.00per hour; some of them
even get up to $14.00 it depends on their past experience. So far,
we know that four people have started their job the rest of them
are still hard to reach since they work different shifts. Some of
them are people who receive public assistance programs.
Most of our graduates are much older, ages 24 and up. They usually don ' t speak or write English much; that is why they like to
learn. The CMAA program offers them a great opportunity in
learning and improving themselves, their family, and their community as well. So, just seeing them walk up the stage and getting
their certificate, it shows that they are really dedicated to the education. Although they did not say in words, they still could not
hide their emotion at that time their eyes were full of tears of joy
and were so bright while their face really full of happiness when

�Upon arri ving in the United States in late 1979 and early I 980 's, either alone
or in decimated families, the Cambodian refugees were generally resettled in
economically disadvantaged inner city areas such as Lowell's Acre and
H ighland neighborhoods. Negotiating their way amidst gangs, drugs, urban v io lence, inadequate housing, and poor schools, many felt they had
been transported from one war zone to another.
A Capital Campaign
The Southeast Asian Family & Youth Center

~~H1SH1SGI.S ni ~~H'5~$ ~ f;

)
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA) of Greater Lowell,
Inc. is in the midst of conducting a capital campaign to raise $1.5 million to
support the physical deve lopment of the SoutheastAsian Family and Youth
Center, scheduled for completion by June 200 I . When completed, the center will be able to serve as many as 5,000 individuals and family members
a year through its various social, educational, cultural, and recreational
activities.
Moreover, these refugees were among the least prepared to adapt to such an
environment. Not only were they suffering from post-traumatic stress
disorder and physical ailments which resulted from their ordeal, but they
tended to be from rural backgrounds, with little or no education, frequently
illiterate even in their own language.
These challenges continue to affect the Cambodian American community
today. According to the U.S. 1990 Census: 26% of Cambodian families in
Lowell are headed by a single mother. The average size of a Cambodian
family is 5.03 persons. Only 46% of Cambodian men and 22 .6% of Cambodian women over the age of25 have completed high scho;:il. The average
per capital income for Cambodian population is $6,250, and 49% of Cambodian families live below the established poverty level, constituting the
second most economically disadvantaged Asian American group.
The proposed SoutheastAsian Family and Youth Center will be located on
the second and third floors in the former Courier Corporation building at
165 Jackson Street in Lowell. The Courier Corporation generously donated
its former headquarters building, with over 90,000 square feet of floor
space and worth approximately one million dollars, to the CMAA in August
1997. The center will be occupying about 20,000 square feet in the unusable space of the Mi lls building. Therefore, the much needed work will
go into an infrastructure improvement and construction of a new service
core that will include a passenger elevator, stairway, lobby, entrance,
new roof as well as office space and a performance stage for traditional
dance rehearsal, after-school youth program activities and for community social and cultural gatherings.
Cambodians came to Lowell to build a new life. Despite their social and
linguistic isolation, many were able to find work in Greater Lowell's factories. Factory work was ideal, as it required only technical ability or manual
labor; fluency in English might not be necessary. Cambodians got together
and built two temples - one located in North Chelmsford and one on Cambridge Street in Lowell. In 1984, the Cambodian community leaders came
together to establish the Cambodian MutualAssistanceAssociation of Greater
Lowell , Inc ., whose mission is to assist Cambodians and SoutheastAsians
to achieve self-sufficiency in their newly adopted country-America, while
at the same time trying to promote and preserve their native cultural heritage.
The Family and Youth Center project has been and will be involving many
youth, families, volunteers, CMAA's staff and board members, elected
officials, governmental officials and representatives from various funding
agencies and foundations who are committed to working together over a
period of 18 months to make plans, carry out those plans to raise enough
funding, and to complete their ideal Center for the Southeast Asian American community in the Greater Lowell.
Programs and Services to be housed in the proposed
SoutheastAsian Family and Youth Center
The Family and Youth Center will empower the Southeast Asian youth,
young parents, parents, adolescents with development disabilities, and the
elders to build positive self-esteem, learn a new language and vocational
skills that would lead them to achieve self-sufficiency in their newly adopted
country-America. In addition, the center will be a pivotal point in helping
to foster and strengthen good relationships, fill the intergenerational gap
between family members and build a strong and healthy community.
§
The Monorom Family Support Services Program provides comprehensive services to families that have children with developmental disabilities. The program name came from the Khmer word "Monorom"
which means "peace or harmony", which renects the program's origins
as a respite care services. Services avai lable include Case management,
translation, and transportation to assist families in accessing other services providers, crisis intervention, counseling services, special education and advocacy; parent support group to assist parents of disabled children in
coping with the unique stresses and difficulties of caring for children with special needs; American sign language classes for those whose principal language
is Khmer; and social and recreational programs for disabled children, including
traditional Cambodian dance troupe which integrates disabled and non-disabled
children.
§
Youth Services Program offers a safe and supportive environment and
an alternative to gang involvement for the" at-risk" and gang-involved
youth between the ages of I 0-22. Program activities include peer
leadership development, Khmer language instruction, Cambodian traditional dances, music and arts classes; employment training and placement, health education and training; computer training, and homework
club; sports and recreational activities, summer camp. The youth have
been involved in numerous activities including an annual Water Festival, Khmer New Year, Lowell Folk Festival, and other special events
throughout the year. Over 400 youth are enrolled in this program.
§
Young Parents Program aims at reducing welfare dependency among
young parents, ages 14 - 21, who have not achieved a high school
diploma or its equivalent. YPP espouses a model of employability development to successfully prepare an individual to obtai n a job as quickly
as possible in the primary labor market. CMAA's YPP attends to the
whole person, recognizing that basic educational and job specific skills
are important to young parents in the acquisition of and advancement in
the work environment. More than 50 young parents have been enrolled
in this program.
StatementofNeeds for Lowell's Cambodian-American Community
Lowell has the second largest Cambodian population in the United States,
numbering 30,000. The largest Cambodian community is in Long Beach,
California, with an estimated number of 60,000. Many of the Cambodian
residents of Lowell are refugees who fled from war-tom Cambodia and
now live in poverty in the United States.
In April 1975, the Maoist communist Khmer Rouge regime led by Pol Pot,
evacuated the cities and systematically killed over two million people-a
quarter of the population--especially targeting the wealthy, educated, or
professional people. Doctors, nurses, clergy, teachers, business owners,
artisans, city dwellers and even those who wore glasses were singled out
for execution since they were seen as bourgeois or contaminated with Western influence.
The Khmer Rouge maintained control by mass public torture, executions,
and dismantling the social order of Cambodia. Men, women, and children
were sent to labor camps and forced to do strenuous work. Famine and
disease became epidemic while medicine and medical care were non-existent.
When the Khmer Rouge regime was overthrown in early 1979, thousands
of Cambodians fled on foot to refugee camps on the Thai border, where they
waited for up to twelve years to be resettled in a third country.

CMAA'S KHMER LOWELL MAGAZINE
The Elderly Outreach &Assistance offers older Cambodian Americans transportation, family and psychological support, translation, hospital visit, citizenship education, case management, health education, emergency assistance, crisis intervention, cultural and re ligious activities, exercise and recreational activities. Traditionally, elders are part of the extended family, which provides fo r
their needs. As a result of the war, the Killing Fields under the Maoist communist regime, the refugee episode, disruption and dislocation of famil ies that accompanied them, many elderly Cambodian refugees do not have surviving children, or may have been unable to locate and reunite with the ir survivi ng children or relatives. In Lowell , Cambodian senior citizens are often isolated. They
often do not speak English. They have li mited access to soc ial services because
oflanguage and cultural barriers.
Kick -Off for Capital Campaign
Thus far, the CMAA's Youth Services Program has raised about $25,000
in gross income from the "Children of War and Theatre Play", held on
March 4, 2000 and which featured Ms. Yo landa King, the daughter of
the civic right leader Martin Luther King, Jr. The event was the CMAA's
kick-off and was made possible by the generous contribution of the River
Arts Repertory and the Children of War organization. The play brought
several hundreds of people to Lowe ll Memorial Auditorium to support
the capital campaign initiative of the youth and fami ly members.
Objectives, Goals & Measurements

The Community Service Employment Program
(CSE) was first introduced in May 1998 by
the Office of Refugee Resettlement in Washington D.C. as a program announcement
called"request for applications for projects to
provide Community Service Employment opportunities for refugees who have experienced
long-term difficulties in ass imilation".
ACCOUNTANTS AND CONSULTANTS
As broad as this statement is, it opens many
new opportunities for the Southeast Asian population, especially the Cambodian Community of
greater Lowell. ln the first year grant the CMAA
was awarded $623.000 for refugee assistance
followed by a $1 ,500,000 grant for fiscal year
2000. The CSE program for the first year provided the impetus for a true set of guidelines for
those affected by unemployment, low levels of
work readiness. Refugees are also affected by
an inadequate supply of jobs for their skill level
and some may have been impacted by job exclusion.
Auditors and Advisors
The Community Service Employment program
is sponsored by a grant from the Office of Refugee Resettlement, and is maintained by the
Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association of
Greater Lowell. In the first year, CSE was able
to service 115 clients who came to the center.
Of these 115 intakes, 42 were placed in subsidized employment through the program.
In the fiscal year 2000, the CSE program increased the outcome by placing 62 refugees
in the CSE program while taking in over 89
new clients. The Community Service Employment program is now entering its third year
with another $ I .5M continuation grant to assist additional refugees with subsidized placement.

invited to participate in the ceremony of giving out certificates to
youth. Guests included were venerable Sao Khoo, Mouth, Song,

Lowell, MA, Sunday, July 30, 2000
It was a gloomy day when my two younger sisters and I stepped out
of the car of a friend who dropped us off in front of City Hall. It was
about noontime. There was not a sign of the sun in the sky as it was fully
cloud-covered. Nontheless, the Plaza at City Hall was bustling with
activities. There were people walking around, vendors trying to attract
customers, children with their parents and siblings, and music playing
from somewhere. This was the scene of the Lowell Folk Festival 2000.
At the CMAA booth where I spent all of my time that day were
filled with staff, members of the board and young volunteers calling out
for people to come and purchase the lemongrass-flavored beef sticks,
freshly grilled chicken wings, lomein, fried rice, crab rangoons, and egg
rolls on sale. Everything was laid out on two adjacent tables under a
tent. Just behind the servers were the treasurer of the Board, Mr. William Tith and a Youth Services Program staff, Mr. Seang Sak, who were
keeping track of the cash flow.
About ten feet away from the tent were three or four CMAA men
tending to the grill. Some had their hands burnt from the high heat of the
flam es, but all were good sports until the very end of the day. Even when
at about I :30 in the afternoon, the sky began to pour rain as if someone
was very upset and decided to drench humanity with pails and pails of
water.
I happened to enjoy rain, so while everyone was cuddling underneath the tent, I walked and ran to Sothea's van to bring back about 30
ya rds of plastic film to go around the entire tent. Lucky my hair were in
to tight braids. Otherwise I would have probably resembled a drenched
dark sheep dog!
After the plastic was put up, the servers were calling out to the
people in the rain to come in, be sheltered, and of course to have some
warm food as well. Ths worked pretty well , especially when we let our
customers stay sheltered in our tent as they were eating.

'Monorom
rtdtf 'Trips to tlie '1Jeacli
Monorom is a unique family support program that provides such
great services to meet the needs of Cambodian families who have
children with disabilities and their family members. It provides
services such as case management, crisis intervention, counseling, special education advocacy, transportation, translation and
interpretation, information and referrals and more.
"The field trip that was my favorite would be to the Hampton
Beach. We went there twice this year. We went with the people
in CMAA. We had a very fun time there. If it wasn' t for them we
wouldn't have a very great time during the summer.
So thank you everyone who help and brought us to go and have a
very great time!!"
By Sena Heng
This past summer Monorom had organized three successful fun
cookout field trips to Hampton Beach State Park and Pawturkaway
State Park in New Hampshire. The kids were excited and had
been looking forward to
these field Trips for a year.
There were average about 25
kids and parents jointed the
trips with very happy faces
and some of them had written short comments that expressed their feelings about
the field trips as following:
"My first field trip was going to the Hampton Beach :twas cool and
Ny gave me his clam I kept it for three days until it died and it was
fun when everybody swam and the food tasted good too. When it
was our second time going to Hampton Beach when everybody
went swimming the water was colder than our first fieldtrip. When
we went to the beach and when I swam again I swam farther than
last time. When I swam the second time then I got tired then I
wanted to catch some crabs but it as too long to walk so I went
back. I went to ask Ming Thy ifwe could play game with the ball.
Everyone wanted to play Dodgeball. We played for a long time
then we had to go home."
By Sophanny Trate
"From all of the three trips 1
like Hampton Beach. I like
"This was the first day of my life to go to the beach with CMAA.
It was really fun that I went to the beach with them I had fun
there. Almost every Monday I always go to the beach with CMAA.
But now were not going to the beach no more because its gonna
be school so we can't go any more. Well now I think I finish
writing this letter."
By Merry Lam
Monorom staff will keep up with good works and build
good relationship with kids with and without disabilities forever.
Hampton Beach because you can catch crabs and starfish. What I
don ' t like about Hampton Beach water, the water was salty. I like
it when the waves come because I sit down the waves come and
splash me over. In Hampton Beach there were two persons giving out the ice cream. The ice cream flavor was vanilla and it was
tasty. Hampton Beach is the best beach I ever went to."

"What I like about the field trip was when we got to swim in the
Hampton Beach but I like the other field trip to the little beach
because water wasn't that much cold, and it wasn't too deep for
us. I kind of don't like that beach because Chinda and I lost our
ring in it. But I liked it anyways because it was fun."

CMAA'S KHMER LOWELL MAGAZINE
ISSUE #12 July 2000
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR MESSA&E
W
elcome again to another edition of the Khmer Lowell
Magazine, a quarterly publication published by the
Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA)
of Greater Lowell, Inc. In each and every issue, we try to communicate
with our community members, supporters and friends about the different things that we at the CMAA are working on and/or plan to do in the
near future.
On the building development aspect, we
have been making more progress as well.
We have just finished the first phase of
the facade improvement with a $200,000
grant from the Massachusetts Historical
Commission and the City of Lowell 's
CDBG. Now, with another $260,000 loan
from the Boston Community Capital Loan
._
Fund, Inc., we are in the midst of reno vating approximately 3,800 square feet space on the first floor in an area right
behind our Komar Day Care Center into a "West-Meets-East", or known as
the "Metta Health Center" for the Lowell Community Health Center, which
already secured additional funding from the federal governmental agency to
provide health and mental health services for the Southeast Asian community
in the Greater Lowell area. The Metta Health Center will be operational and
providing services to the community by September 2000.
For the past several months, we have been quite busy with numerous
projects at the CMAA. One project that I'd like to share with you is our
Community Services Employment Program (CSE), which is being
funded by the Federal Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR). Because of the tremendous success of this program, the federal government has increased the funding from $623,000 to $1.5 million a year.
There are over 150 people who have benefited from this program.
Another program is the Massachusetts Self-Sufficiency Program
(MSSP), which is also funded by ORR through the Massachusetts
Office for Refugees and Immigrants (MORI). The MSSP has been
helping hundreds of Cambodian and Southeast Asian people in getting
meaningful jobs with livable wages and excellent benefits. More than
350 people have benefited from this program and a lot more are on their
way to achieving economic self-sufficiency, which is really the main
goal of the program as well as a much-needed achievement for our
com munity members. Yet another successful program is the Youth
Services Program, which is serving more than 450 youth through a
wide range of activities, from social services, educational, cultural,
recreational, multimedia, to employment and community services. One
of their most recent activities was with the U.S. Census 2000 bureau in
the effort to promote awareness through the Community Outreach and
Educational Program. Our Youth Peer Leaders and adults walked
every streets in Lowell and knocked on hundreds and thousands of
doors to encourage people, particularly those of Cambodian, Southeast
Asian and Latino descents, to respond to the U.S. Census 2000 questionnaires . Now, they are involving in the CMAA's Summer Camp
better known as the Future Stars program, which use sport, educational and recreational activities as ways to counterattack negative
influence and gang involvement. There are close to 200 youth ages 7
to 16 enrolled in this summer program. Many thanks to the Red
Auerbach Youth Foundation, the City of Lowell, United Way of
Merrimack Valley, Theodore Edson Parker Foundation, Stevem Foundation, and many more generous individuals who helped make thi s
summer program become a reality for our youth.
Also, the CMAA is in the midst of a Capital Campaign with our goal of
raising $1.5 million to renovate approximately 20,000 square feet of space on
the second and third floors of the CMAA's building on 165 Jackson Street
into a Southeast Asian Family and Youth Center. Much of the work will be
into building a new service core that include a passenger elevator, stairway,
lobby, restrooms, offices, arts and dance studios, music recording studio and
performance stage/multi-functional hall that will allow youth and elders as
well as community members alike to have access for social and cultural
gatherings. The Capital Campaign is scheduled for completion by June
2001, while the Center itself will be completed by the end of 2001.
Step by step, we will be able to complete the entire building development
project as a "One-Stop" Center for the Cambodian community, offering
social, educational, cultural and economic development programs and services. And together, we will make a big difference for our community.
Once again, thank you for your continuous support and guidance. We would
like to invite you to get involved in our Capital Campaign Project so that we
can physically develop the Family and Youth Center for the Cambodian and
Southeast Asian community in Greater Lowell. If you have a chance, please
stop by for a chat and enjoy our humble exhibition of different instruments
and artworks from Cambodia. Enjoy your summer!
Sincerely,
Samkhann C. Khoeun, Executive Director
Other significant achievements worth mentioning here also are 1) a
new five-year funding from the Massachusetts Department of Education to provide Bilingual/Native Language Literacy; 2) a two-year grant
from the Freeman Foundation to continue the Project LEAD (Leami ng
English to Advancement), which is a workplace English program targeting Asian refugees and immigrants to access to education and economic opportunities; and 3) a three-year Community Technology Center funding from the Federal Department of Education to expand the
CMAA's Computer Lab/fraining Center that will be further equipped
with computer systems, multi-media capacity, and connected with DSL
Internet that will allow staff, youth, adult students and community
members alike to learn new technological skills, surf the World Wide
Web, and access the Superhighway information. The CMAA is committed to help bridge the digital divide by working closely with the
Lowell Telecommunications Corporation and the Lowell Technology
Consortium, to expand and establish between 8 - 10 computer centers
throughout the Lowell community.

It seems like yesterday; but we are already half way into the year 2000. Time is
really flying fast and just like everything else around, we have to move along
accordingly, or else, we will be left far behind.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you and friends for supporting and
making the Khmer New Year Festival at the Tsongas Arena a big success despite
a short time spent on organizing the event itself. Of course, I did not get the
actual count, but reliable sources indicated that there were about 6,000 people
attended this event on April 8, 2000. We hope to have yet another successful
event again in April 2001.

July 28-30, 2000; the Southeast Asian Water Festival; which is scheduled for
August 19, 2000; the CMAA's 16th Anniversary Celebration in late October

Clearly, we cannot achieve these milestones without your continuous support
and guidance as we are now moving forward in leading our community into
the 21" century. We still have a Jong way to go, but we are committed to
learning, listening, and serving our community the best way we possibly can.

On behalf of the committee of the Khmer Lowell Magazine, I would like to give
my respect, thanks, and love to all of Khmer Lowell Magazine supporters. There
are many of you out there who are so generous and have a good heart toward
our work-CMAA's work. We are not only honored by having your advertisement in our magazine, but some of you even go further by giving your donations
to the Khmer Lowell Magazine and, especially, to the whole CMAA organization.
Ju st to name a few at this time are Attorney At Law- Thomas Stylianos,
Superwash Laudromat- Marty Conley, and Lowell Walk In Medical CenterDr.Tamarin
The Editor,s Word
As part of life, everyone has his/her own duties to accomplish. Parents try
their best for their children's sake; civic leaders work hard to improve the
condition of their community's life; business owners think all day and night
searching for ways to bring profit in; not to be out of the living society, birds
travel thousands of miles just to fill up their tiny stomachs.
Because of a combination of the above reasons, the CMAA staff, paid or volunteers, full-time or part-time. work hard from Sunday to another Sunday without any complaint. They want to provide a good start to their next generation. They want to give prosperity to their community. They want to bring
profits to their own society, and they also want to feed themselves so they can
be alive and continue doing all of the great works. They do all of these not only
for their Cambodian community, but also for the rest of the community living
in the United Sates and outside of the country as well.
Once again, thank you to the Committee and the supporters for bringing this
Khmer Lowell Magazine to serve the community. Please, keep up with the great
work.
May you all have a very good and safe summer!!!

On behalf of the CMAA's organizing committee for the Khmer
New Year Festival 2000, we would like to thank the many volunteers, contributors, and supporters who helped to bring the
event at the Tsongas Arena to a reality. With this being the
largest indoors Khmer New Year celebration that the community has seen in a very long time, we would like to acknowledge the approximately 6000 individuals--young and old alike- who gave life to the festivities by being there and enjoying
the various performances and cultural presentations. Thank
you all for your support. We hope to turn this event an annual
event with even more exciting shows and performances in
store.

Look at that, t he food and merchandise vendors as well as the informat ion booths were com peti ng for customers and guests t o go t o thei r
respective booths. The seats were arranged in a semi-circle, the usual
arrangement for such a place. At one end of the seating was one large
stage. On t he stage was a decorated background consisting of doors
of a prasat t hat were painted by the staff and volunteers of the CMAA,
with Mr. Kim Sok Koam as the leading artist. This beautiful stage was
made even more lively by t he colorful dancing stage lights.
CMAA's New Year Celebration
Tsongas Arena on April 8, 2000
What is unusual is amazing. S
omething that
one cannot rea lize of accomplishing is different. CMAA"s organization of t he Water Festival t o helping the City of Lowell gain the
recognition of All-America City are a couple
of things that have gotten the attention from
the community at the end of this past twentieth century. But in the beginning of this
second millennium, the CMAA has accomplished
yet another feat, that is the Khmer New Year
Festival. Doesn't the Water Festival and
Khmer New Year Festival sound like they are
related? I will leave it up to the readers to
find out what kinds of activities took place
at the Tsongas Arena.
About a week and a half before the 8th of April, 2000 , there were
rumors that there will be mishaps at the arena that would cause chaos
and insecurity, causing some people to be afraid of what may take place
at the New Year Festival. At this time, the staff of CMAA tried the best
they can to ensure safety for the community. In a short time, April 8th
arrived. Then, both staff and board members of CMAA met at the
Tsongas Arena at 9 o'clock in the morning to set up for the festivities
and make sure that everything will proceed smoothly. The police were
standing guard in just about every corner that may be considered a
dangerous place. And both the police and staff held walkie-talkies for
communication purposes.
The backstage area consisted of numerous rooms where all of the performers and artists were getting ready for their acts and shows. In
front of the stage were arranged between four and six hundred seats
for those who had purchased VIP tickets. Behind these chairs was a
place for the young
children to play
along with the accompanying music .
More people, young
and old, continued
to come into the
arena. Some saw
each other for the
first time in a long
time and stopped to
see how the other
was doing . some
walked around, looking at what was available at the booths while others bought delicious
food from the vendors to eat or searched for good seats in the arena.
At this point, I noticed there were some minor problems. That is, the
chairs infront of the stage were not set up on time causing some to not
be seated. Because of this, I would like to apologize on behalf of the
staff of the CMAA, and would like to ask for the forgiveness from those
who felt inconvenienced.
Each staff member paid attention to their own duties during the set up
process. The truck drivers such as Vincent Bona Un and Mr. Paul Yin
and I tried not to slow down the process of setting up. As for the
At the same time, boys and girls played traditional games like Chaul
Chhoung (throwing a cloth), Leak Kanseng (hiding a handkerchief or
scarf), and Tort Sey (Khmer hackey sack made with bird feathers) until
3:40 p.m. On stage, the Chhayam group beat their drums loudly so that
everyone would know the ceremony has started. Just about a minute
after, Chhayam dancers came out. In their colorful traditional costumes, the dancers dance along the sound of the drum. The combination of the chorus , the music, and the movement of the dancersshaking their body, shoulders, and their head, made the performance
very lively. The audience watched without blinking; some even forgot
to eat the popcorn that they were holding in their hands . As well,
uncles and aunts who are vendors at the booths up on the second level
no longer took notice to their customers; all they cared at that moment
was to watch the Chhayam performance.
vendors of merchandise and food , they proceeded with their booths
with smiles and laughter as things got better and more people entered
into the scene.
Events were supposed to begin at 2pm. However, they were delayed a
little because the police department and security wanted to check
that all the people who had entered the arena were clean of weapons
and any harmful items. At this time, the outside had a cheery atmosphere. Everyone approached others to see how they were doing.
"Are you OK?", 'Which state are you from?"' Some said they were from
Maine, while others said they came from New York, Rhode Island, Florida,
California, and Canada. Just a bit further, young girls and boys or
young men and women held hands, walking or sitting together with
their partners or friends in enthusiastic crowds. How appropriate of
an atmosphere to the weather outside. Young children on the other
hand were chasing each other all around , making me remember of the
time long ago when I used to do the same thing.
When the Chhayam
ended,
Samkhann
Khoeun, the Executive
Director of the CMAA,
came onstage to give
a warm welcome to the
audience. Then, he

As I was still trying to think of the old days, the doors to the arena
suddenly opened for the public at 2pm, a sign that the security crew
has finished making sure things were safe inside the arena. The people
squeezed into the doors to get in. Those who did not purchase tickets
yet went to the ticket lines while those who had tickets in their hands
went to the entrance area at the st airs to find seats. But before they
can proceed to the seating areas, they had to be checked with security wands that wou ld detect any weapons. Let"s leave the lobby area
of the arena and go to t he inside where t he activities were happening.
What kinds of things were taking place?

a blessing for this new year. After the monks had provided the audi ence with thei r blessing, the Angkor Dance Troupe and the Friendship
Dance Troupe performed the following dances: the Blessing Dance and
Robam Phoung Neary. These in turn were followed by dignitaries' remarks, including words of welcome by Mr. Rithy Uong, Lowell's KhmerAmerican City Councilor. As for the rest of the special guests that were
on stage, one at t ime they expressed their enjoyment wholehearted ly
that they even tried to say "Suosdei Chhnam Tmey" (Happy New Year).
The exiting of the dignitaries offstage
brought the Friendship Dance Troupe
once more onstage where they performed Bopha Lokei, a dance consisting
of beautiful young girls, and a folk dance
called Robam Kaen.
After the dancers left the stage, the
Lakkaun Basaak , a type of Cambodian
Opera, was presented. The actors and
actresses performed one act that
showed a prince bidding farewell to the
hermit, his master, to be on his way to
the Royal City. The prince met his love
with the daughter of the great Yak, the
cannibalistic people who can turn into
giants. The Yak came just in time and
fought with him in a great battle until
the Yak accepted his defeat. At the beginning just the Yak's footsteps caused one side of the sky to rumble.
But when the Yak cried that he was the CMAA Yak, the audience were so
enthralled that some exclaimed that the CMAA Yak was not only just big
in size and small in heart. As for Ah-Kang, the hermit's boy, he is not big
in size for nothing. Before leaving, he applied for 551 for his master. To
conclude the one
act opera left
the
audience
with something
unusual but impressive in their
minds.

When the Basaak
Opera was over,
other performers
came on stage to
entertain
the
guests with poetry reading, an educational comic act, more traditional
dancing, and a fashion show displaying clothes from different eras and
for various occasions, until the Sava band began playing music for the
guests to dance until 11 o'clock at night, when the entire event came
to a close. But when you turn to watch the
staff of CMAA you will see that they tried very
hard to fulfill their responsibilities for the event
without end and without taking a rest. Even
when the event ended, the staff stayed in order to break down and clean up the arena until
1 am when everyone was sure everything was
in place and that there was no need to worry
anymore.

LCC, as part of our mi ssion statement to assist Cambodian children in Cambodia who are victims of landmine and civil strife, was able to send $300.00 to
Cambodia. Through Arn Chorn Pond , a fou nder and a member of Cambodian Volunteers for Community Development (CVCD) in Cambodia, the
$300.00 made an impa ct in the
ch ildren of the Cambodian Street

very hard on preparations for the Upward Bound (UB) Workshop for July 4,
2000 at Umass Amherst. The committee worked intensively to research and
do a two hour presentation on Cambodian cu lture and tradition s, educating
the 80 Upward Bound Program students who range from the eighth through
the twelfth grades and who come from Lynn, MA. The workshop was a great
success! And on July l 8th, LCC wi ll present a similar workshop, but this time
on our organi zation fo r the Fall River Upward Bound students. On July 7-9,
a group of LCC members and several high schoo l age students attended the
National Landmine Conference in Washin gton D.C.

LCC also held o ur first (hopefully it will be o ur annu al) successful Soccer
Tournament at the South Common Soccer Field in Lowell , MA. Thi s event
brought many teams together to play for the same goal which was to raise
money that will contribute to our mission. Everyone had a great time even
the organizers. Thi s experience will defi nitely be a plus for LCC members in
the future.

LCC members are very happy to be able to fund two Khmer high school
graduates to continue their education. This scholarship fund was made
poss ible through fundrai sing activities and individual in-kind donations. We
LCC members cannot reiterate enough how much we appreciate any kind of
donati on. The (2) two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) will definitely assist
Khmer student s in so me of their edu cational expenses such as books and
suppli es. We hope to increase the amount given out in the coming years.
LCC's scholars will receive their scholarship award in our upcoming Awards
Ban quet.

one of the award recipients, who had been asked
to write up an acceptance speech. But it turned
out that his English speaking ability was great
and that he didn't need me to be up with him to
translate. Nonetheless I enjoyed the event in its
capacity and was able to translate conversations for Dean Proeung Chhieng and a very
young dancer that were both seated at the same
table. The young dancer, So Vannary Sao, came
from Siem Reap only a month ago. While he
was performing in Cambodia, he was seen by
the President of the U.S. National Ballet Association, who was thoroughly impressed with
his dancing capability. She decided to sponsor
him over to the States where he is currently put
into a dance school in New York City to learn
ballet. With him being fairly young, only about
15 years old, I can only imagine how he feels
being brought over from his family and friends,
and knowing almost no English. But he is one
lucky young man to be the chosen one among
his peers in the dance troupe back in Siem Reap.

The Violence Reflective of Our Society
By Chath pierSath
Like other cities throu ghout Am er ica , thi s mill town, Lowe ll has its share of the violence, which is ren ective of the problem s in our large r society. Gun s
are cheap and accessible to children here. Poverty show s a wide in e9uity between people in a country where the bounty of its food can feed the world . Yet, peopl e
still go hungry everyday. Throughout the urban slum s of America, drugs and domestic violence turn the innocent into murderers. In addition, raw footage of
Hollywood movies and video games fill the minds of th ese children with heroes who destroy, bomb an d shoot peo ple for revenge.
Ameri ca's youth are easily convin ced or swayed to fill the meani ngless voi d with hate and rage. Without love and positive adult super vision to hack and guide th em
again st all th ese evil s, they w ill pi ck up a gun, and when angered, shoot out of control.
In a city of I00,000 people like Lowell, when children di e of violen ce, it is very disconcerting to people. The Cambodian commun ity has more than
its share of violence . Peopl e arc plagued with remorse and sadness of multipl e losses in addition to th e suffering and the poverty th ey experience. It is here, in
this immigrant city of mi ll s and factori es, that m other s an d fath ers gathered to raise their children fro m the war and poverty of their ho m e land. They came with o nly
a few things on their backs, neeing the refu gee cam ps, torn in so many direction s. When a you ng child di es of violence here, it is even mor e diffi cult for the parents
already mourning their earli er losses becau se they all had hope that Am erica wou ld provide them wi th t he safe refuge from the viol ence they had run fr o m.
America, as many later discover, is not the sa fe haven they had so ught. C hildren , w hen physically or emotion ally broken and neglected to their own
demi se, will seek out gangs as a way of handing together for emotional support and a sense of bel onging. They cannot stand alon e to resist viol ence or the hurt and
pain that they experi ence in their lives. Without proper physical an d psyc hological nurturing, th ey w ill run to f\ght evi l on t hei r own t er m s even w hen it m ean s
bein g evi l th emselves. In stin ctively, this is how the world works.
Growing up in thi s co untry is not easy for most Cambodian children . Their gentl e nature is divided and torn bet ween two different cultu res and their
identity is fractured. They exper ience racism. Som e live in poverty, where they are shoved into a o ne- room apartment with two or three other brother s and sist ers.
At th e age of ten , a Cambodian child is expected
to care and become responsible for other younger
siblings. If the paren ts are struggling to make
ends meets, they may neglect their children in
order to work at odd shifts . Some tim es th e
father or th e mothe r has a gambling habit to
feed. Th ere may be a history of family violen ce
and abu se in addition to other social problem s
crow ding th e children 's mind s.
A hea lthy c hild re9uires good
parenting, emotional nurturing and ca ring as
well as ongoing communication. Not every fam ily is capabl e of becom ing whol e and healthy
because diffe rent people experience the world
in different ways . Level of edu cation, culture
and how we are socialized to see and interpret
things around us determin e who we are and
w hat we become. It is not simple t o blam e ,
w hether it is the victim or the perpetrator. Ev er ything is con nected , just as we value the idea
behind the African proverb, "It takes a village to
raise a child," which implies that all of us have
the responsibility toward every child in addition to the children we raise.
The so-called 'bad child' is renective
of all of us. When a youngster commits a murder or an improper act of violence again st hi s
fellow beings, we tend to think that it is because
he is bad or the parents did not raise him right.
That is why he has become so violent. Yet,
through our labels and our prejudices, we make
that child violent, in the images w e see them to
be . We confu se them with mixed m essages of
o ur own as to what is right and wrong. There is
a lot of confu sion out there that young peopl e
face . Som e of them are living in a state of para noia, in th eir gang code of ethic and law, they
see the world as an unfriendl y place, with suspi cion, and plans of vengeance agai nst those whom
th ey perceive are against them.
When found guilty, the two boys ,
both age fifteen, will be jailed for the
rest of their lives. Four lives are
now lost . Murder is an act
of in stant pass ionate rage ,
anger, and bottled hatred.
Without adult guidance
and a positive role model,
these children are
not abl e to know
how to deal with all
ages of enemies invade their hearts and
soul s, thinking that they would be free to com mit a murder in revenge of th ei r friend's death.

�Upon arriving in the United States in late 1979 and early I 980's, either alone
or in decimated families, the Cambodian refugees were generally resettled in
economically disadvantaged inner city areas such as Lowell's Acre and
Highland neighborhoods. Negotiating their way amidst gangs, drugs, urban violence, inadequate housing, and poor schools, many felt they had
been transported from one war zone to another.
A Capital Campaign
The Southeast Asian Family & Youth Center

The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA) of Greater Lowell,
Inc. is in the midst of conducting a capital campaign to raise $1.5 million to
su pport the physical development of the Southeast Asian Family and Youth
Center, scheduled for completion by June 2001. When completed, the center will be able to serve as many as 5,000 individuals and family members
a year through its various social , educational, cultural, and recreational
activities.
Moreover, these refugees were among the least prepared to adapt to such an
environment. Not only were they suffering from post-traumatic stress
disorder and physical ailments which resulted from their ordeal, but they
tended to be from rural backgrounds, with little or no education, frequently
illiterate even in their own language.
These challenges continue to affect the Cambodian American community
today. According to the U.S. 1990 Census: 26% of Cambodian families in
Lowell are headed by a single mother. The average size of a Cambodian
family is 5.03 persons. Only 46% of Cambodian men and 22.6% of Cambodian women over the age of25 have completed high school. The average
per capital income for Cambodian population $6,250, and 49% of Cambodian families live below the established poverty level, constituting the second most economically disadvantaged Asian American group.
The proposed Southeast Asian Family and Youth Center will be located on
the second and third floors in the former Courier Corporation building at
165 Jackson Street in Lowell. The Courier Corporation generously donated
its former headquarters building, with over 90,000 square feet of floor
space and worth approximately one million dollars, to the CMAA in August
1997. The center will be occupying about 20,000 square feet in the unusable space of the Mills building. Therefore, the much needed works will go
into an infrastructure improvement and construction of a new service core
that will include a passenger elevator, stairway, lobby, entrance, new roof as
well as office space and a performance stage for traditional dance rehearsal,
after-school youth program activities and for community social and cultural
gatherings.
Cambodians came to Lowell to build a new life. Despite their social and
linguistic isolation, many were able to find work in Greater Lowell's factories. Factory work was ideal , as it required only technical ability or manual
labor; fluency in English might not be necessary. Cambodians got together
and built two temples -one located in North Chelmsford and one on Cambridge Street in Lowell. In 1984, the Cambodian community leaders came
together to establish the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association of Greater
Lowell , Inc., whose mission is to assist Cambodians and Southeast Asians
to achieve self-sufficiency in their newly adopted country-America, while
at the same time trying to promote and preserve their native cultural heritage.
The Family and Youth Center project has been and will be involving many
youth, families, volunteers, CMAA's staff and board members, elected
officials, governmental officials and representatives from various funding
agencies and foundations who are committed to working together over a
period of 18 months to make plans, carry out those plans to raise enough
funding, and to complete their ideal Center for the Southeast Asian American community in the Greater Lowell.
Programs and Services to be housed in the proposed
Southeast Asian Family and Youth Center
The Family and Youth Center will empower the Southeast Asian youth ,
young parents, parents, adolescents with development disabilities, and the
elders to build positive self-esteem, learn a new language and vocational
skills that would lead them to achieve self-sufficiency in their newly adopted
country-America. In addition , the center will be a pivotal point in helping
to foster and strengthen good relationships, fill the intergenerational gap
between family members and build a strong and healthy community.
§
The Monorom Family Support Serv ices Program provides comprehe nsive services to families that have children with developmental disabilities. The program name came from the Khmer word " Monorom"
which means "peace or harmony", which reflects the program's origins
as a respite care services. Se rvices available include Case management,
translation, and tran sportation to assist families in accessing other services providers, cri sis intervention, coun se ling services, special education and advocacy; parent support gro up to assist parents of di sable
children in coping with the unique stresses and difficulties of caring for
children with special need s; American sign language classes for those
whose principal language is Khmer; and soc ial and recreati o nal programs for disabled children , includin g traditional Cambodian dance
troupe which integrated di sab led and non-disabled children.
§
Youth Services Program offers a safe and supportive environment and
an alternative to gang involvement for the " at-risk" and gang-involved
youth between the ages of I 0-22. Program activities include peer
leadership development, Khmer language instruction, Cambodian traditional dances, music and arts classes; employment training and placement, health education and training; computer training, and homework
club; sports and recreational activities, summer camp. The youth have
been involved in numerous activities including an annual Water Festival , Khmer New Year, Lowell Folk Festival, and other special events
throughout the year. Over 400 youth are enrolled in this program.
§
Young Parents Program aims at reducing welfare dependency among
young parents , ages 14 - 21 , who have not achieved a high sc hool
diploma or its equivalent. YPP espouses a model of employability development to successfully prepare an individual to obtain a job as quickly
as possib le in the primary labor market. CMAA's YPP attends to the
whole person, recogn izin g that basic educational and job specific skill s
are important to young parents in the acquisition of and advancement in
the work environment. More than 50 young parents have been enrolled
in this program.
Statement of Needs for Lowell's Cambodian-American Community
Lowell has the second largest Cambodian population in the United States,
numbering 30,000. The largest Cambodian community is in Long Beach,
California, with an estimated number of 60,000. Many of the Cambodian
residents of Lowell are refugees who fled from war-tom Cambodia and
now live in poverty in the United States.
In April 1975, the Maoist communist Khmer Rouge regime led by Pol Pot,
evacuated the cities and systematically killed over two million people-a
quarter of the population--especially targeting the wealthy, educated, or
professional people. Doctors, nurses, clergy, teachers, business owners,
artisans, city dwellers and even those who wore glasses were singled out
for execution since they were seen as bourgeois or contaminated with Western influence.
The Khmer Rouge maintained control by mass public torture, executions,
and dismantling the social order of Cambodia. Men, women, and children
were sent to labor camps and forced to do strenuous work. Famine and
disease became epidemic while medicine and medical care were non-existent.
When the Khmer Rouge regime was overthrown in early 1979, thousands
of Cambodians fled on foot to refugee camps on the Thai border, where they
waited for up to twelve years to be resettled in a third country.

The Children of War Theater and Film Project is a collaboration of artists
working toward the creation of a theater piece that addresses ethnic conflict, its
effect on the world's young people,
a nd the power of compassion to
heal and inspire change. It is based
on the inspirational work of the
Children of War organization
founded by Judith Thompson and
Arn Chorn-Pond. Over the past
several yea rs, the project artists have
traveled to Cambodia; Dharamsala,
India; Zagreb, Croatia, and Sarajevo
to conduct interviews with survivors, refugees, and leaders which formed the basis of the text. The artists were
filmed by Barbara Kopple, an Academy Award-winning documentary filmmaker whose footage will be used both in the theater piece and in her own
documentary about the behind the scenes creation of the project.

To provide multi-function faci lities to the Southeast Asian community
in Greater Lowell at an affordable costs serving up to 7,500 people a
year. At least 75% of the persons served in the Southeast Asian Family
and Youth Center will be low-i ncome families.
The Children of War organization
devotes itself to supporting the emotional, psyc holog ical, and spiritual
development of young leaders who
have experienced war, violence, injustice, and oppression. Many young
people growing up in these difficult
circumstances have a desire to devote themselves to social transformation. Children of War has worked
with young leaders from 22 countries, including U.S. inner cities, homele ss
shelters, Native American reservations, and farm labor camps. These youth
leaders have traveled to 60 U.S. cities and over 450 high schools to share their
stories and insights with U.S. youth, building partnerships between inner city
youth a nd international "war" survivors, utilizing their common bonds of
suffering as a doorway to a deeper joy of compassion for each other.
Key Personnel
The CMAA will use outside consultants for the capital campaign, fund
raising, legal services, building development, architectural designs, engineering, and construction of the family and youth center. In addition, CMAA
will put into good use its own management team that consists of an executive director, Mr. Samkhann C. Khoeun , who brings a history of successful
administration of community organization to CMAA; a fiscal manager, Mr.
Thirith Hut, who hold an accounting degree from Northeastern University;
a development director, Mr. Joseph Sexton, who is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Lowell and Suffolk University Law School;
plus staff members from the CMAA's Youth Services, the Monorom Family Support Services, the Elderly Outreach Progra m, the Young Parents
Program and also the youth, clients and its dedicated volunteers. Yet, the
CMAA's board of directors, wh o represents a broad variety of professions,
will bring an important array of experience and training to the CMAA's

Play", held on March 4, 2000 and which featured Ms. Yolanda King, the daughter of the
civic right leader Martin Luther King, Jr. The
event was the CMAA's kick-off and was made
possible by the generous contribution of the
River Arts Repertory and the Children of War
organization. The play brought several hundreds of audiences to Lowell Memorial Auditorium to support the capital campaign initiative of the youth and fam ily members.

It was very cold. Two rabbits were playing In the field.
Far away t hey saw two small red objects. The rabbits went closer
t o /oolf.
The t wo red object s were pieces of an old red blanlfet.
The pieces were warm and th/elf, but they were very small. They
were to small to use.
Soon a f ox came by. "liood day my f riends," he said.
"You loolf worried. Do you have a problem?" The rabbits answered,
"Yes! We need a needle and t hread to sew the pieces of the
blanlfet t ogether." "You can use my needle and thread If I can use
the blanlfet, t oo," said the fox.
The rabbits used the fox's needle and thread. When the
rabbits finished their sewing, the fox /oohed at their worlf. "You
did a good Job," he said. "I'll see you tonight."
Night came, and the wind was very cold. The f ox came
baclf to the rabbits. "liood evening, my f riends. It's a cold, cold
night. But we w/11 be warm! We have the nice, warm blanlfet you
sewed with my needle and thread. You sewed down the middle of
the blanlfet. The right thing Is for me t o sleep In the middle."
··res, that's right Mr. Fox, " said the rabbits.
So the f ox lay down on the ground. The rabbits put the
middle of t he blanlfet over him. The blanlfet covered him, but It
did not cover t he rabbit s. They were cold all night!
So you see, you should never malfe a bargain with a fox.
He w/11 always win.

if she pulls out a white coin, she will be free.
Upon hearing his proclamation, the townspeople requested the old man to
take out the two coins first so they can all see but he refused. Because of this
refusal, Miss Sophea understood that the two coins the old man had placed
in the container must both be blackened coins. But despite her knowing this
for a fact she still decided to grab for a coin anyway because she couldn't
argue. Therefore, how was Sophea able to grab for the coin which will:

A riddle
is not a mathematical problem. Nor is it a word of
di scipline. A riddle is a tale or problem that has to be solved in a way that 's
to the ideas of scholars: bei ng taught little but knowing a Jot, or to work less
but to get much accomplished. It is to be able to solve numerous problems
with only one move.
Announcement:
The CMAA has recently created the
"Community Emergency Assistance Fund" to

life tragedies. If you would like to make a

In order to help you understand more clearly of what solving a riddle is all
about, please read below and help solve the problem as follows.
Grandfather Seng raised a young girl named Sophea, beginning when she
was 7 years old. When the young girl turned into a young woman, Grandfather Seng wanted to take her as a wife. This naughty old man took two
blackened brass coins and placed then them a long cylindrical container and
called the townspeople to be witnesses. When the townspeople were all
gathered, the old man who wanted to have the young woman as wife
proclaimed, "In this container are one white coin and one blackened coin. If
Miss Sophea takes out the blackened coin, she will have to be my wife. But,

The Community Service Employment Program
(CSE) was first introduced in may 1998 by the
Office of Refugee Resettlement in Washington
D.C. as a program announcement
called"request for applications
for projects to provide Community Service Employment opportunit ies
for refugees w h o
have experienced
long-term difficulties
in assimilation".
As broad as this statement is, it opened many new opportunities for
the Southeast Asian population, especially the
Cambodian Community of greater Lowell. In
the first year grant the CMAA was awarded
$623.000 for refugee assistance followed by a
$ 1,500,000 grant for fi scal year 2000. The CSE
program for the first year provided the impetus
for a true set of guidelines for those affected by
unemploy ment, low levels of work readiness.
Refu gees are also affected by an inadequate suppl y of jobs for th eir skill level and some may
have been impacted by job exclusion.
The Community Service
Empl oy ment program is
sponsored by a grant
from th e Offi ce of
Refu gee Res ettl e - ·
ment. and is maintai ned by the Cambodi an Mutu al Assistance Association of Greater Lowell. In the first year, CSE
was able to service 115 clients wh o came to the
ce nter. Of these 11 5 intakes, 42 were placed in
subsidi zed empl oy men t th rough the program.
In fiscal year 2000 the CSE program increased
the outcome by placi ng 62 refugees in the CSE
program wh ile taking in over 89 new clients.
The Community Service Employment program
is now entering its third year with another$ l .5 m
continuation grant to assist additional refu gees
· with subsidized pl acement.

Our Employment Services Program (ESP) at the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA) is funded by the Office of Refu gee Resettlement (ORR) via the Massachusetts Office for Refuges and Immi grants
(MORI).
This is the second year of the work, and it has been improved a lot. It will
get even much better in the nex t following years. Through the hard work of
all three staff, the program has provided a lot of benefits to the communi ty.
Individuals' and or family's needs have been served, helping people achieve
self-sufficiency.

In the past two years , hundreds of refugees' families, S.E.A. and others,
have received assistance from the MSSP at CMAA, particularly in support
services and job placements services. Just only in the first 6 months of th e
second fiscal year alone, from October in 99 to March 2000, more than 350
families have been assisted in filling out applications for Food Stamps,
Mass Health, Public Assistance, Housing, Citizenship, Legal issues, and so
on.
ir
ff
The MSSP staff of CMAA also made applications to the Center for Educational Documentation in Boston to get an equivalency for our clients. These
clients are new immigrants who received their college degrees in Cambodia.
The good result is that some get thei r education equivalence to M.D. for
General Practice, and some get a B.S . degree in Economics in the United
States.

For job placements, in the same six month period the staff has helped to
place, 113 individuals, 97 of them are adults. Among them were 24 families
who used to receive part or full benefits from TAFDC (Welfare Department). We have many connections to all kinds of work, ranging from office

Moreover, at the present time, the staff has established two job skills training classes to enhance the ability level of our clients. The training classes are COMPUTER and SOLDERING . These classes are led by the qualified and
certified instructors who really have a heart for

CM A A's Youth Services Program
The youth serv ices program is one of many of the Cambodian Mutual Assistance As soc iation of Great Lowe ll (CMAA). The program has been establi shed to provide additional educational opportunities for youth whose ages
are between 7 and 21. This is an after school program that intends to educate
youth in Khmer culture such as:
u
I.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Khmer language every Monday and Friday from 4-5pm and every Saturday from 9-1 I am.
Traditional music Monday to Thursday from 4-5pm.
Traditional dance every Tues ., Thurs. and Fri . from 5-6pm.
Arts and culture every Mon ., Wed., Thurs. & Fri. from 3:30-5pm.
Modern English songs and dance from Mon.-Fri. from 3:30-5pm.
From 5-7:30 or 8pm, the program provides transportation to youth
to get home safely.
Other Activities
The youth program provides education through social and historical discussions, short folk story telling, sports, employment assistance, help with finding schools, help with homework, study about strategies of leadership, lead
youths to do other Buddhist ceremonies, bring youths to perform different
places in the community and provide general help to families regarding civic
rights.
s
True experience has shown that activities of the youth program mentioned
above have provided 6 benefits:
I.
Reduced harmful actions in public places
2.
Connected the youth to whole community
3.
Made the youth aware that their leaderships are needed in the
community
4.
Made the youth aware that they have rights to celebrate/do ceremonies
5.
Made the youth understand between them and parents
6.
Connected to the Khmer proverb: youth are future in keeping our
culture
These benefits don't come by themselves! They came because of efforts of
youth staff, leadership of CMAA and funders who face many challenging
problems to provide funding for the program. But these benefits are truly not
enough. There are two other main problems that cannot be solved yet. First,
youth have not received incentives from the community (especially Khmer
community). Second, youth staff and parents have not established a good
relationship to create confidence with each other.

�TRANSPORTATION AT CMM
The mean of transportation in any society has a very crucial role in
it such as in family, business, non-profit organization and government institution and society as a who le need to transpo11 object or person from one
point to another point in space. In any walk of li fe need to use transportation
such as ; farmers , businessperson, and public officials. In the early society,
especially folk in agriculture economy have been using ox cart, horse cart,
elephant , bicycle, car, tricycle, train, boat, ship, and airpl ane to transport
object or person from one place to another in daily activity. If we don't have
the mean to transport objective or person from point A to point B , then the
economic activity in that society is undeve loped or poor condition. The
communication activ it y for public official or private in stitution would unproductive if without the mean of tran sportation .
Youth Services into my job responsibility. My job was to drive the youth
from CMAA to their resident or vice versa on worki ng day basis. On March
15, 1998 CMAA had moved from old place from 125 Perry Street to a new
place at 165 Jackson Street. Then the director asked me to drive the youth at
afternoon 5:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. depend on the number of the youth and
their activities outside of CMAA such as; performing Khmer classical dance,
es
sport act1v1t1 ect.. .. CMAA 's van in a very bad condition; the oi l is leaking,
brake problem. Sometime I have to us my personal money to fix CMAA
property in order to provide safety for our youth and the passenger. I am felt
confident driving the van. Then in early 1999, I have heard good news from
the leadership. They wanted to purchase a new van. On the Janu ary 27, 2000
our program director Lorraine Cordeiro gave me the key to me .
If we look back to CMAA organization, the transportation job is
one of the most important activities that can move our organization forward
its agenda.
The CMAA got a new white van, a 2000 Ford E350; it carries up to 15
passengers. I have driven this new van since its mileage was about 40 miles.
The new van is not on ly for the Elderly program and Youth program, but it
also for all of the CMAA programs.
I have been starting working at CMAA si nce the late of 1997 in
Elder As sistance & Outreach Services program which under the direction of
Ms. Thy Chey. In that time the CMAA own an old van made in 1987 that have
15 passenger seats. We used an old van to carry elder to the hospital , temple,
and training at CMAA ect. ... In early I 998, Mr. Samkhann Khoeu n, the
director of CMAA increa sed my job de scription by adding After School
Only two CMAA staffs are responsible for the key, Ronnie and me . So, if any
staff member wants to use it, s/he should fill out a form telling who is going
to drive the car, from where and what time , to where and what time , the
number of passengers, date of using it, and so on. The purpose to fill out the
form is to make sure the car is used for a good reasonable service.
Since I got the new van, I have taken care of it very carefully, 1 even double
the work that I used to do with the old car. 1 have to be careful with my daily
driving . I instruct the youth to understand that this car is also belong to them
so they should help to take care of it (not to break things or mess it up) . I have
noticed this instruction works very well. It is important to instruct them,
because if they do not understand about the importance of the van , it is hard
for them to help in taking care of it.

Since we receive the car, the need of transportation is increased. Sometimes,
Arn Chorn Pond , or Sayon Soeun, takes the youth to perform classical
dancing or playing sports in Amherst or Lynn . Sometimes, I take them to the
uni versity in Boston. Just my driving of the van is over 50 miles per day. For
instance, from the end of January to the end of May, 2000, this van had been
driven 3571 miles. Although the van is used a lot in transportation, one van
is sti ll not enough for the need. As you can see, there are many staff members
in each program. The program staffs are busy with inside and outside work,
like taking clients to medical c linics, schools, courts, companies, and to
meetings. Everyday, all of them use their own cars to provide the services to
the clients. Now, you can see that not only the CMAA's van that is busy, but
the staff's cars too. This work goes on without stopping. The non-stop
activity shows that the CMAA is going forward, improving, and developing
because of the availability of the transportation.

CMAA'S KHMER LOWELL MAGAZINE
A Message from the Executive Director
Dear Fellow Cambodians and Friends,
I would like to take this special occasion to extend my warm invitation and greetings to all of
our community members, supporters, friends and public officials during the Cambodian New
Year festivities in the month of April 2000. The Carnbodian-American community in Lowell,
Massachusetts as well as many others alike throughout the country, are celebrating this
ancient traditional event called Choal Chnaim Tmey in the Cambodian language or New Year
Celebration.
Traditionally, Cambodians celebrate holidays all year round, but they have one favorite
holiday. Cambodian people have an acute sense of the dramatic, and their celebrations
abound with costumes, lights, floats and parades. Singing, music and dancing are very
popular and enjoyed by people of all ages.
The most popular festival that the majority of Cambodians take part in is the New Year. The New Year Celebration
customarily lasts for three days, from the I 3 th to the 15 th of April. The actual date and time are determined by an
astrologer who calculates the exact moment when the new Thevada or angel along with his or her animal protector,
such as the hare, tiger, dragon, just to name a few, arrive to replace the out-going one. The Thevadas have the
responsibility of looking afterthe well being of mankind . While getting ready to welcome the new deity, most people
spend their time cleaning and decorating their homes so as to ward off evil spirits and disaster. Cambodians in the
United States continue to honor this tradition and celebrate this special fe stivity as much as they can by choosing
the dayand time, and also by conducting activities close to what is done in our native homeland, Cambodia.
On Saturday, April 8, 2000, from 2:00 PM to 11 :00 PM, the Cambodian Mutual AssistanceAssociation (CMAA) and
its community partners will host this wonderful celebration known as the Khmer New Year Festival to be held inside
the newly established Tsongas Arena. The day will be filled with many aspects of Khmer cultural activities including
traditional dances ; music ; a fashion show highlighting Khmer costumes from past to present styles; Khmer opera
known as Lakhan Bassaack; Aa-yai- Khmer improvised singing between male and female; a comedy show; recreational
games; concert performances; and social dances with the local Sava Band. The Angkor and Friendship Dance
Troupes, Cambodian celebrities from Cambodia, our local youth groups and young models will take part in these
planned activities and performances. The New Year Steering Committee has been working very hard to make this
special event fun and for it to appeal to all age groups.
Therefore, on behalf of the Board of Directors, staff members, volunteers, and the whole Cambodian-American community
of Greater Lowell, we would like to, once again, extend our warm invitation to our friends, colleagues, family members, and
public officials, and others who are interested in learning our culture, to join us today as we celebrate our joyous New
Year Festival with the theme "a celebration of unbroken Khmer Heritage ... in a new millennium." Welcome!
Sincerely,
Samkhann C. Khoeun

This year, a golden dragon was welcomed to take the Rabbit 's
throne. This Dragon no longer blows flames of fire , instead the
flame is transformed into a joyful tone of music that fits into every
body's favorites. However, although the smart and sweet Rabbit
has gone, the happiness he made for us last year is still in our
hearts.

The good memories of working together has strengthened our Lowell
community. All the bad things have started to disappear from our
eyes and from our heart as well. The terms " Cambodian kids,
Spanish kids, Vietnamese kids, or even White/Black kids" are less
used. Instead, the word "Our Kids " is taking place now.

Why isn' t it on January I st ?
Just as cl imates, waters, rivers, seas, oceans and the like differ from
time to time, and from place to place, in like manner New Year's day
differs from coun try to country. From post-Angkor period, l 43 21863A.D., to the present day, Cambodians have used both types of
calendars, lunar and solar. According to the solar cal endar, thei r
New Year 's day starts in the month of Chet.

Mid-April is the dry season when farmers do not work in the fi eld,
thus it is a good time for the New Year' s celebration . The actual
time and date are determined by astrologers who calculate the exact
moment when the new animal protector arrives. Many people spend
a whole month preparing for the celebration. Duri ng the first three
days of the new yea r all the people (from the king to farmers) are
free from work and go to offer foods to monks in pagodas, play
games, dance and si ng. At the time of the changing of the animal
protector, Cambodians pray for prosperity, good health and to show
gratitude to parents, to change the old ways of li fe and make resolutions, to pay debts, and to exchange g ifts, it is time to begi n
agai n ... a fresh start.

The Angkor Dance Troupe
as fast as they pile up stones for the bridge, the stones mysteriously disappear. The white monkey dives into the sea to investigate. What he discovers is that a school of fish, led by a golden
mermaid named Sovann Macha, has been carrying off the stones
in an act of playful vandalism. Hanuman confronts the beautiful
troublesome mermaid Sovann Macha - at the same time he can't
help but be dazzled by her beauty and falls in love. While she
initially resists, Hanuman eventually wins her over as his ally in
the fight against evil.
Founded in 1986, the Angkor Dance Troupe is nationally recognized as one of the most experienced and accomplished Cambodian dance ensembles performing today. The Troupe has performed at prestigious venues including the White House, First
Night Boston, and Yale University. In 1999, the Angkor Dance
Troupe received the "Coming Up Taller" award from the
President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities. The awards
were given to a select group of IO organizations from across the
nation to honor exemplary youth arts programs.
In the Putterf(y 't)c,.nce, a group of young Khmer hunters capture
butterflies. But when the helpless creatures beg for mercy, the
boys let them go. The Butterfly Dance symbolizes the curiosity
and compassion of Cambodian people, their willingness to always
help and support one another, and above all, their desire to live in
peace and harmony.
Cambodian Classical Dance dates to 700 AD. Classical dancers
performed in temples in ceremonies to appease the Gods and,
more recently, in the royal palace for the King and his guests in
the royal court. Elegant and refined, Cambodian classical dance is
sometimes called "court dance" or Cambodia's "royal ballet."
Once reserved exclusively for Cambodia ' s elite, classical dance is
now performed for audiences around the world and has become a
central symbol of the beauty and spirituality of Cambodian
culture.
'J?ickit,fl l<rovc,.nh is a traditional dance of the Por tribe, which
lived in the Pursat Province of Cambodia. The dance demonstrates
the tradition of farmers who each year would embark on a long
journey - 3 to 6 months long - to pick Krovanh, a spice found in the
distant mountains. Before the journey, the Por villagers gathered
for a big ceremony to pray and offer foods to the spirits - in the
hopes of good weather for their harvest journey and protection
from evil spirits.
Folk dances emanate from rural Cambodia -- from the countryside. They depict aspects of everyday village life and honor
traditions and skills typically undervalued in the rush to civilization - skills such as fishing and harvesting rice. Cambodian folk
dances are lively and spontaneous, created for emotional expression. Costumes are very colorful and reflect the traditional dress
of the particular province or ethnic group within Cambodia where
the dances originate.
Tivic,. 'J?ro~ey was originally performed in Cambodia in honor of
National Children ' s Day. It is designed to give young dancers
experience in movement and the rhythm of the classical
orchestra.The song and dance describe solidarity, nationalism, and
also, the children's joyous day.
The Dances for this Evening's Program
'J?ea.cock of 'J?ur:ic,.t originated in the Pursat province of Cambodia, where lush tropical forests are home to a large variety of
animals and birds, including numerous peacocks and peahens.
The birds' fabulous green and black tail feathers bear the stamp of
nobility. During the dance, performers wearing headgear of
peacock feathers represent apirs of pewfow as they play in the
forest and float on the mountain breezes.
The Pl~:iit,fl l)co,ce was originally performed in the royal palace
in Cambodia to rid the palace of bad spirits and to bless the royal
kingdom. Today the blessing dance is performed at the beginning
of performances and ceremonies of all types. It is a dance of
greetings and good wishes. During the performance, the dancers
come forward and sprinkle flower petals toward the audience. This
is done in the hope of bringing prosperity, peace, and good health
to everyone in the audience.
There's a saying in Cambodia "Where there is water, there are
fish." During the rainy season, the great lake Tonie Sap swells
and spills over, flooding nearby ponds and streams and carrying
along many varieties of fish. When the waters recede the fish
remain, providing the Khmer with a year-round food supply. The
Fi:ihit,fl l)c,.nce demonstrates traditional methods of catching
fish, using braided bamboo baskets and traps.
Te~ Monorum, often considered the most beautiful in the
Cambodian classical dance repertoire, embodies the wellbeing,
friendship, and prosperity of Cambodian people.
Swvc,. 'J?ol - The Monkey l)c,.nce is from the legendary Cambodian Reamker, from which many classical dances derive. In
Cambodian legend, monkeys always fight evil. These monkeys are
army soldiers gathering food for a feast to celebrate a victory. The
lively and acrobatic monkey dance is performed by boys and young
men, who capture the spirit and quick mannerisms of monkeys.
Following the original dance, the Troupe will feature some new
choreography with elements of modern dance.
Love and romance are favorite themes in Khmer stories and dance.
In traditional Cambodian society, young people are carefully
watched and don't have many opportunities to get to know one
another. But the fishing quarter is one place they had the chance
to meet. The Angkor Dance Troupe's rendition of the Fishing
Dance shows how young people balance courtship and custom by
the river's edge.
Hanuman & Sovann Macha or The White Monkey and the Golden
Mem1aid also depicts a scene from the Reamker. Before this
episode begins, the queen was captured, abducted to the kingdom
of Lanka far out at sea. The King calls on a famous army general
named Hanuman to help him rescue the queen. Hanuman and his
army of monkeys set about to build a bridge across the ocean , but

"What is th e Future of Cambod ians in America" Forum 1/21 /00
O n Fr id ay, Janu ary 2 1, 2000, Light or Cambodian C hildren, the
Camhod ian Mutual Ass ista nce Association of Greater Lowe ll, Inc. (Ci\!AA),
and the Umass Lowell Gra du ate Sc ho o l of Education came toget her to cosponsor a forum on the future of Cambod ian s in the United States. The forum
was held at the CMAA bu ild ing located at 165 Jackson Street, Lowell, MA.
There were about o ne hundred people in attendance includin g
prominent people such as Councilor Rithy Uong, the l'irst Cam bodian Ameri can City Councilor; Mr. Bouy Te, Deputy Director at the Office or Bilingual
Ed ucatio n and Min o rity Language Affairs of the U.S. Department of Education;
an d Dr. Khatharya Lim , Assistant Professor in the Asian /\mer·i can Studies Program at the University of California, Bcrkely.
While the majority of the audience were studen ts (high school and
college), also present were parents, profess ionals, and city school committee
members. All shared the common interest which is "Education, Th e Future of
Cambodians in America".
11any i:,,;sucs and topic:-- vvcrl' hrought up :-- uch as
\
education , culture clash, lines of communication, parental guidance, and lack
of role models.
Panelists had a chance to talk about their past and how education and
perseverance brought them here. Their hardship ranged from dodging bullets
to dying in the streets of Cambod ia. How hopes and dreams kept them alive,
and as survivors, th ey wanted to co ntribute hy advocating and educat ing the
main stream co mmuni ty about Cambodian people. Studen t s who .s erved as
panelists had a chance to voice opinions regarding their lives as
American
youths and how hardship seemed to parallel the "grown ups". Though living in
America seemed a luxury, hard ship ofren places them in man y pr-cdicamcnts
that "grown ups" mi ght not have realized .
One major contribution was the setting up of the Cam bodi an Ameri can Scholarship Fund, which was to aid those stu dents who arc comm itt ed and
m oti vated to continue onto hig her education. The sc holarship was set up by
Light of Cambodian C hildren w hose mi ssion is to build a future l>a scd on nonviolence, caring, skill s, unde rstand ing, an d hum anitarian action:,,; ha:-,:ed on the
common concern for the well -being of Khmer children.
In follow up to the forum, aud iences an d panelists, both agreed that
th ere should be more rol e models fo r the you ng ge neratio n to look up to.
There sho uld he more communicatio ns among you ng and o ld. The gap should
cl ose if the future of our community is to thrive es pe cia ll y in the area of
edu cation and co mmuni cation.
NOTE: T he Cambodian Am e rica n Scho larship app li cat ion material s (applicati on fo rm , essay, two letter of recomm e nd ation , and o ffi cial tran sc ript) must

The Sun will shine...
Why does it seem like the war will never end?
Why can't my people make amends?
We le~ our country to stay alive,
But even here we can't survive
Brothers die and sisters cry
Moms and dads wonder why
The children they run away
Against each other they become the prey
In the streets they join a gang
~~
In a week, a gun goes bang
A trigger pulled without a thought
Too late no~ a brother shot

CMAA'S KHMER LOWELL MAGAZINE
Dear friends!
Yet, the CMAA is also in the process of organizing other special
events within the next several months. One of which will be to
bring the "Children of War Theatre and Film Project" to Lowell
auditorium on March 4, 2000. The actors and actresses of the
play include Ms. Yolanda King, daughter of Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr., Mr. Arn Chorn-Pond, a Reebok Human Rights Recipient and co-founder of the Children of War, and several other Hollywood celebrities. The play is based on true stories of young
survivors from war-torn countries around the world, including
Cambodia. The purpose of bringing this play to Lowell is to
fundraise for the CMAA's Youth and Family Center, with which
the CMAA can serve a lot more youth who are out there without
proper guidance and support from either their families and community.
Greetings from Lowell, Massachusetts. For the past several
months, the Lowell's Cambodian-American community has
been making many headlines in the Mill City politics when the
first Cambodian American, Rithy Uong, was elected to the City
Council, sending a strong message that the Southeast Asian
Americans are here to stay and that their voice will be heard. It
was incredible for the Cambodian American, the Southeast
Asian American, and mainstream communities as a whole to
finally have someone new in the Chamber of City Council to
represent one of its largest minority groups in this Mill City.
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association of Greater
Lowell, Inc., or known in short as CMAA, has been very instrumental in assisting the Cambodians and Southeast Asians to
become US citizens, to register to vote and to actually vote during the last general election of the City of Lowell Council on
the 4th of November. It is also known for its strong advocating
efforts for appropriate services, programs, and resources to
serve the Cambodian, Southeast Asian, and other minority
groups in Lowell, Massachusetts in making their transition
into the American society as well as in fulfilling their socioeconomic and American dreams. In addition, the CMAA is also
trying to promote their native cultural heritage and share it
with others so that all people can appreciate the beauty and
uniqueness of the largest minority group in Lowell. This is
true through the celebration of the Southeast Asian Water
Festival in late August, New Year Celebration in mid-April,
and other cultural activities throughout the year, just to name
afew.
Another wonderful activity being planned is a Khmer New Year
Festival, which is scheduled for Saturday, April 8, 2000. The
steering/planning committee made up of CMAA's staff members,
board, and community members are working hard to make this
festival becoming a reality. The most attractive thing about this
New Year celebration is that it will be conducted inside the newly
established Tsongas Arena in Lowell, Massachusetts. Whether it
rains, snows or shines, the event will go on. We anticipate between
7,000 to 10,000 people to attend this one-day event.
The CMAA, more than ever, is committed to the design and implementation of programs to better serve and improve the quality of
life for the Cambodian-American community of Greater Lowell
and others. The CMAA has just gone through its five-year, longrange strategic planning process. CMAA had completed its feasibility studies for its building development as well. With these
plans in place, the Board, staff members and volunteers strongly
believe that they will help prepare the organization and guide us
well into the next millennium. And our community members will
greatly benefit from our work, services, and programs.
On October 29-30, 1999, the CMAA celebrated its 15° Anniversary where public recognition were given to many local heroes, community members, funders, volunteers, and elected
officials who had been instrumental and supportive to the
CMAA's work and services as well as its community through
good and rough time.
1
Without a doubt, our work would not be possible without the fmancial support and guidance from the many funding agencies, foundations, and individuals out there. With that, we would like to
express our heartfelt thanks. And on behalf of the board of directors, staff members, volunteers, and clients of the Cambodian
Mutual Assistance Association of Greater Lowell, we would like
to wish you and your loved ones good health, wealth, and happiness
for many years to come!
On January 8, 2000, the CMAA celebrated yet another special
event-the New Millennium Dinner Gala highlighting Rithy
Uong's community achievement, but at the same time establishing the "Community Emergency Assistance Fund" to further assist those who are in needs due to unexpected tragedies
such as being a victim of fire, homelessness, and other unforeseen dangers. The event was attended by many important people
including the Cambodian Ambassadors to the United Nations,
His Excellency Ouch Borith; the Cambodian Ambassador to
the United States, His Excellency Eng Roland; Lowell's Mayor
Eileen Donoghue; president of Theodore Edson Parker Foundation, Mr. Newell Flather; many funding agencies representatives; past and current CMAA board of directors; and community members.

The earth still turns, the moon still represents
the softness of the heart, and the sun still stands for all
living souls on this earth. These three good things
still keep their special duties in serving everyone and
everything that exists in the world. They hold up all
the weight and light up to every creature, bad or good,
black or white.

As we ll, the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association (CMAA) sti ll works really hard, physically, mentally,
and timely, to improve its services in serving its own community. This great work has been done by and through the
caring and loving heart of the Executive Director, Samkhann
Khoeun , of all workers, and the Board of Directors. We al!
insist on working together regardless of whether it is daytime, nighttime, or a week-end/holiday. Although sometimes
it is a task that seems beyond our capacity, we still challenge
the work until we reach our goal. The accomplishments of
the CMAA shows that the collaboration in our community
does exist and continues to take part in our heart as always.
Along with it, the scary thing which had many of us worrying
was the end of this past millennium. Fortunately, it did not
occur, but rather went by smoothly. Then, our mind was
brightened up from the darkness caused by other problems
in life.

The Royal Embassy of Cambodia presents its
Compliments to the
Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association
On January 7th and 8th of this new millennium,
the CMAA and the Lowell community were fortunate
to have two special visitors amongst us. The first being His Excellency Ouch Borith, an Ambassador from
the Permanent Mission of the Kingdom of Cambodia
to the United Nations and the second being His Excellency Eng Roland, also an Ambassador, from the
Royal Embassy of Cambodia located in Washington,
D.C., it was definitely an honor for the CMAA to be
host to these two special guests.
********************************************
Presented to the CMAA at the "New Millennium Dinner Gala"
by His Excellency Eng Roland
The first day consisted of consecutive meetings with members of the community whose interest in investing in the Cambodian economy brought them to do presentations to the two Ambassadors, but not before the two Ambassadors had a chance to
meet with Congressman Martin Meehan of the 5th District, MA.
The following were a list of presentations before the two Ambassadors. They took place in the co nference room of the CMAA and
was open to the public :
-Mr. Raul Raudeles & Associates
The MesoAmerican Development Institute,
Solar/Biomass Coffee Drying System
-Ms . Susanne Beaton, Director
Lowell Enterprise Community
-Mr. Thomas F. Galligani, Economic Dev't. Officer
Lowell Division of Planning and Development
-Steve Fitzgibbon and Michael Bouchard

On Saturday, January 8, 2000, the CMAA hosted a dinner
gala at the Lowell American Textile History Museum to celebrate
our entrance into the new millennium , Rithy Uong's position as the
first Cambodian American to sit on a City Cou ncil in the United
States, as wel l as to benefit the newly created "Community Emergency Assistance Fund" . This new fund wil l be financially supported by members of the community and go to aid Cambodian
families in cases of unexpected tragedy such as fire , sickness, death,
and homelessness.
The evening began with the VFW Honor Guard performing the opening ceremony, presenting the colors. After performances by the CMAA Friendship Dance Troupe and youth group,
staff, and remarks by Mayor Eileen Donoghue and the two Ambassadors, all the guests danced into the night with the Golden Horse
Band.
Overall, the night was a success, with almost three hundred people in attendance . Special thanks to the following local
businesses for their initial contributions to make thi s event possible: Pail in Supermarket, Battambang Supermarket, Phnom Penh

We would like to wish everyone
the best of luck in the new millennium.

But the performances presented by the CMAA youths
were what lit up the event. The gifted children performed a tradi- 8
tional dance, played traditional music, performed a rap session, and
reci ted a very powerful poem. This and many other achievements .;'
by the Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association are evidence of ~
the positive outreach that the organization has provided fo r the
Cambodian community in the greater Lowell area.

Over the past fifteen years, the CMAA has worked
hard to establish a Youth Services Program (YSP).
Initially, the CMAA offered Khmer classes to youth
and gradually increased services over time. The
Monorom Program for children with disabilities initiated the traditional dance classes for youth. During
the early nineties the YSP grew significantly with a
service population of at-risk youth. The youth were
involved in basketball tournaments and other sports
programming. In 1994, due to the lack offunding the
CMAA Youth Program was terminated, however
.
·
Khmer language classes continued to be offered.

Saturday, October 30, 1999
In 1996, the CMAA received funding for the youth
program and one part-time coordinator was hired. The
Youth Services Program focused on at-risk youth and
activities centered on leadership development, cultural
and arts classes, and media programming. The YSP
coordinator brought significant resources to the
CMAA such as computer donations and additional
funding. By 1998, the YSP had hired a new director
and case manager with funding provided by the Massac husetts Office of Refugees and Immigrants
(MORI). In December of 1998, the YSP was serving
approximately 30 youth.
The CMAA recognizes our youth as a vital resource
for our future. Cambodian youth have experienced
many stresses beyond the normal challenges of adolescence. Our youth need emotional support, educational support, health education, safe and wholesome
recreation which provides challenges, the opportunity
for artistic self expression, guidance, and clear alternatives to at-risk behavior.
The Year 2000 goal of the YSP is to develop a comprehensive program using the arts, cultural understanding, counseling, employment, sports, multi-purpose
instruction, and criminal justice support to meet the
needs of at-risk and other youth. These additions will
strengthen the current services, increase staffing, provide opportunities for staff development, and develop
new initiatives. The YSP staff will invite board members, parents, youth, and youth providers to work together to develop an effective youth program.
Today, the YSP showcases youth performances, art,
peer leadership educational series, community service,
gang prevention, internship opportunities, job readiness training, a well-renowned Future Stars Sports
Leadership Summer Camp, among many other initiatives. The YSP currently receives funding from the
Red Auerbach Youth Foundation, the Massachusetts
Office of Refugees and Immigrants, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, BankBoston, the Enterprise
Community, Shaw Foundation, and other sources. The
YSP has expanded to include five full-time and several part-time staff. Furthermore, the YSP served
more than 250 youth between the ages of 6 through
20 since December 1998. Youth and their families have
received assistance on re-entering the school system,
employment, homework, housing, mental health services, college applications, and other services.

All dressed up for Trick or Treats
October 28, 1999
The Young Parents Program has been running at the CMAA for
over eight 'years. During that time we have seen many young parents pass
through our doors . The Young Parents Program is an altemati ve education
program, which leads in most cases to a GED. The goal is to move young
parents from receiving Transitional Assistance for Dependent Children
(TAFDC) to work. The program is open to individuals aged fourteen to
twenty-one who are either pregnant or a parent and did not graduate from
high school. The class is very diverse and the language of instruction is English since this is the language everyone has in common. Classes are held
Monday to Friday from 9:00AM to 1:30PM. Guest speakers are invited to
give presentations on a regular basis and we have taken a number of field
trips this year. These included a trip to the circus in Boston, a picnic at Shedd
Park, a visit to Lowell Historic Parks and a fun day at Canobie Lake.
The students work very hard in class, they realize
the importance of getting their GED. Being a parent and a
student is very demanding. We understand the problems
and difficulties associated with this and work closely with
each student to overcome any obstacles. So far this year,
seven students have passed their GED, five students have
gotten jobs, two students have entered training programs
and two students are now attending community college.

A GED retest policy was introduced
effective July 1, 1999. This affects
all individuals who do not pass their
GED on the first attempt. After all
five GED tests have been taken the
scores for all the tests are combined
to give a total standard score.
Depending on the score obtained,
a waiting period may be required
before the individual can retake any
tests. The requirements are as follows:
q _
1. Total standard score of 219 or
higher may retest at any timeno waiting period.
2. Total standard score of 210 to 218,
two months waiting period before
any retesting.
3 . Total standard score of 200 to 209,
four months waiting period
before retesting.
4. Total standard score below
200, six months waiting
period before any retesting .

MEN 18 - 25 YEARS
Must Register with the Selective Service System
What Happens If I Don't Register?
Young men convicted of failure to register may be fined
up to $250,000, imprisoned for up to five years, or both.
In addition to being subject to prosecution , failure to
register may cause you to permanent] y forfeit eli gi bili ty for
certain benefits. NOT REGISTERING IS A FELONY.
What is Selective Service Registration?
Registration is the process by which the U.S. government collects names and addresses of men age 18
through 25 to use in case a national emergency requires rapid expansion of the armed forces .
What Are The Benefits?
Regi stering with Selective Service can open doors for
you. For example, Selective Service registration is often
required for Federal Job Training. A man must be
registered before he can get Federal (and some state)
loans, grants, and scholarships. Also, Selective Service
Regi stration is required for eligibility for U.S. Citizenship
and other government jobs.
Will I Be Drafted? ·
Registration with Selective Service does not mean you
are joining the military-And registering with Selective
Service does not mean you are signing up for the all
voluntary Armed Services. The fact that a man is
required to register does not mean that he will be
drafted. No one has been drafted since 1973. No
one can be drafted into the military unless ordered by
Congress and the President. A draft would most likely
occur only in the event of war or national emergency.
Registration forms can be picked up at the Cambodian MAA
office or at the Post Office in Lowell. For more information,
please call 978-454-4286 Extension 41.

A Thief's Story
Once upon a time, there was a poor family. They
had one son. The son often went out to steal
thin9s. Every time he brou9ht somethin9 home,
his mother was happy. She didn't ask him how
or where he 9ot it. She just said, "That's very
9ood."
Many years passed. The little boy 9rew
up and became a full-time thief. One day the
police cau9ht him and took him to jail. The court
said that he must die for his crimes. But before
dyin9, he could have one wish.
The son asked for his mother. He said that he wanted to see her ton9ue.
The mother came and stuck out her ton9ue. Then the son cut his mother's ton9ue
until it was bleedin9. Everyone was surprised. They wanted to know why he hurt his
mother.
The son answered, "My mother did not tell me it was wron9 to steal. And so
I am here now."
The court jud9e decided that the son should not die. The jud9e let the son
90 free. The son became an honest man and lived to an old a9e.

Parents: Your children do listen to you. It is what you say to
them that matters, even if it
doesn't show at the time you are
saying it. Your words have more
impact on them than what you
think. So please be careful with
what you say to them, even it you
had meant no harm but on the
contrary would like the best for
your children. In the long run,
you will see what type of affect
you have on them.

�Dear Fellow Cambodians and Friends:
During these summer months, the Cambodian community members will witness
a few important events that are so significant to our growing community here in Lowell.
First, CMAA has just received a big donation of an 80,000 square feet building on 165
Jackson Street, Lowell. This red brick building is a historical landmark and a former
headquarters of Courier Corporation that was owned by the Conway family for three
generations. It is right in downtown Lowell and centrally located within the Cambodian
neighborhoods (please read related article on page 12).
Secondly, CMAA is organizing the first annual Water Festival this August 23 ,
1997. It is a wonderful and historical in scope because this is the first time and the only
kind offestival itself that ever took place outside of Cambodia or Southeast Asia. It is
widely supported by many agencies such as the Center for Family, Work, and Community of University of Massachusetts at Lowell; Lao American Organization; the New
England Folklife Center; the National Historical Park; Lowell Cultural Council; Massachusetts Cultural Council; Lowell Health Department; as well as local Buddhist temples
and Southeast Asian groups. But the most generous supporter of all is the Theodore
Edson Parker Foundation. Parker's fund has enabled us to make this very important
event realizable in the city of Lowell, Massachusetts.
Two beautiful traditional racing boats were made and are being shipped from
Cambodia for this event. On the day of the water festival there will be a lot of exciting
activities for the whole family to enjoy. Of course, admission to the festival is free . But
any donation will be greatly appreciated (please see related articles on pages 8, 24).
Accommodating a sizable Cambodian population of about 25,000, Lowell is home
to the second largest population of Cambodians in the United States. And the donated
80,000 square feet building will provide a singular opportunity for the development of a
Cambodian Cultural and Economic Center that could stand alongside Lowell's other
cultural and historic attractions: the National Historical Park, the New England Quilt
Museum, Brush Gallery, American Textile History Museum, Boots Cotton Mills, the
Morgan Center and Boardinghouse Park, and the new Sport Museum.
On behalf of the Board and staff, I would like to personally invite each and every
community member and friends to participate in both the first annual Water Festival
and also to be part of the development of our Cambodian Cultural and Economic Center here in the city of Lowell.
I'm looking forward to seeing you at the Water Festival this August. Thank you all so
very much for your continued support. The many difficult tasks of serving our growing
Community would not be possible without YOU!
Executive Director, CMAA

�(Excerpt from a Cambodia magazine: "The Legend Comes to Life"
Volume 3, 1997 published by Ministry ofTourism, Cambodia)
When Chang'hann Hoy broke
in to two pieces, people
thoug ht it was because the
rowers were too strong. They
said the rowers paddled the
long, sleek racing boat so fast
it just split apart-the bow end
sped away from the stern, leaving one half in Siemreap and
the other half far down river
in Kompong Chhnang.
F
ast it was. Chang' hann
Hoy was so named after it
brought food from Kompong

150 kilometers up the Tonle Sap
river. And the food-chang'
hann-was still hoy-hot! And the
boat was fast because the rowers
were strong and rowed with great
speed, so the story goes.
But Monh Sok knows that the rowers weren't the reason why the legendary long boat split in half. Sok, a
51 year-old boat builder from
SiemReap, knows Hot Food broke
apart because it was built so wellbuilt according to the ancient formula
developed centuries ago to make the
war boats of the ancient Angkor
empire.
Built for speed, and Hot Food was
built so well, so sleek, so fast, it just
raced away from itself.
Surely, the ancient formula makes
fast boats--ones so sleek, graceful
and brightly colored. It is this ancient formula that produces the boats
that every November fill the Tonle
Sap at Phnom Penh and moat at
Angkor
Wat

Seimreap

races,
Cambodia's
grandest
celebration.
Monh Sok
says the
key to the
formula is
an ancient
rule: "Kor
romaing,
b a t h
kantaing,
kantuy
p U O S
kray""the neck
of a fallow
deer, the bottom of a basket, the tail
of snake named kray." The formula works like this: The deer's neck
is handsomely round. The bottom of
a basket is roughly flat. The Kray
snake's tail is smaller, "like chicken's
chest," Sok says.
The chief workman recites this formula and tells his workers to carve
their boat accordingly- neck offallow deer curving gracefully up at the
bow, basket fl atness shaping the
hull's bottom, thin snake tail sweeping back from the stem. "If the tail
is too big, the
boat will
leap ," Sok
says . The
boat builders
rush from
stem
to
stern , and
then pull
themselves
away to see
the sides of
the long craft
to make sure
that the rule
has
been
complied
with properly.
The boat is
made. You
have to entirely answer
the requirements of the ancient formula. But what happens if you use
koki thmar wood to make this boat?
It will sink, of course. According to
the veteran boat maker, it is not
enough just to follow the rule-the
workmen must also select the best
quality wood. They should use the
normal koki tree, not koki teuk,

SERVICES TO CHILDREN AND
FAMILIES
I
'11 switch gears here and talk
about the work we do to support
the core mission of DSS-protecting children who have been abused or
neglected and providing children with
safe permanent homes.
The families we encounter do not have
storybook lives. The pages of case
records tell horrifying accounts of
abuse, neglect, family violence and numerous tales of parents' inability to successfully raise their own children. DSS
staff rescue children from scary situations everyday in unheralded efforts to
provide them with a better future. Let
me tell you some of the ways we have
strengthened the agency.
Adoption
One of the best success stories in the
country is what DSS has done in the
area of adoption. In 1993 Governor Weld
and Lt. Governor Cellucci launched Assignment Adoption, a comprehensive
plan of action to reduce the backlog of
children in need of adoptive homes and
to restructure the adoption system to
move children onto permanency much
quicker. At that time DSS was completing on average 500 adoptions a year.
Since FY 94 DSS has completed over
1,000 adoptions in each year. House One
asks for $5.59m to fund adoption and
guardianship caseload growth that we
will continue into FY 98.
A few months back I joined Lt. Governor Cellucci at an adoption event in Fall
River where met three young sisters who
were adopted by a Rehoboth couple.
These girls, victims of parental substance abuse, had been in foster care for
several years. They now are together in
a home they can call their own with loving parents, because of our efforts. For
these sisters and each one of the children adopted through DSS, adoption is
a happy ending- or a happy new beginning - in their life story.
Out-of -Home Care
Perhaps one of the biggest areas of
change is in our out-of-home placement
services. Foster homes and group care
are designed as short-term. Children are
placed in DSS homes until they can
safely return home, be adopted or can
live independently. The problem with
foster and residential care is simple the
needs of the children coming into care
have outstripped the technologies available to deal with them. We are caring for
today 's children who have much more
profound behavioral, mental and physical problems, with yesterday's system.
The system that was developed decades
ago has not kept pace with the numbers
or their issues, leaving us with an antiquated means to address some of the
most complex family problems. When a
child has to be removed from his or her
home, our options are primarily foster or
group care with little in between. There
are simply not enough foster families for
the children who cannot safely remain
in their own homes and the system is in
dire need of revamping. Unlike decades
ago, there are not as many two parent
"
families where women are staying home
to raise children EOHHS SECRETARY
Gallant has made helping to expand the
pool of foster parents a top priority. We
have begun aggressive recruitment efforts , targeting corporations, religiou
and civic organizations. The results are
promising. Hopefully the dramatic increases in inquires about becoming a
foster or adoptive parent will ultimately
lead to new homes. We know, however,
that people think on average for two
years about becoming a foster or adoptive parent before making that first phone
call.
Kids Net
We also know that in order to recruit, we
have to make sure our current pool of
foster families are well supported. This
month we announced the award of a
contract to Massachusetts Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children to
provide support and membership services to foster and adoptive parents
through a program called Kids Bet. Such
services will include ongoing foster parent training, respite care, a limited
amount of child care, support groups
and other services.
riered Reimbursement
This spring, a new tiered reimbursement
system for foster care will be implemented. This will create four levels of
foster care-a base level, second level for
children with behavioral / emotional
problems, third level for chronic or acute
medical issues and fourth level of contracted therapeutic or specialized foster
care. This new reimbursement system
will rationalize the payment system and
will eventually link the training and certification of foster parents to the level of
children that can-be placed in their home.
This an initiative that is long overdue.
Bridge Homes
In addition to more foster homes, more
options are needed for workers making
the difficult decision of how and where
to place children who must be removed
from their homes. Until now our only
option has been to place young children
with foster parents who may already
have their hands full. Last year we developed a Bridge Home in Boston, this
year we added one in Springfield, and
by the end of this fiscal year, four additional programs will open in the remaining regions of the state. Bridge Homes
are an innovative program model in Massachusetts. They are small, residential
programs for younger children who have
to be placed away form their homes.
They allow us to do better diagnostic
assessments of children and keep sibDSS/Continue to page 13

For centuries in Southeast Asia, a Water Festival has had been
organized annually to celebrate the importance of water in all aspects
oflife: food, agriculture, spiritual and economic prosperity. People of
all ages from the cities, towns, and villages would gather at the
riverbanks to sing, dance, watch boat racing and decorated boats
float by. This August, people from all ofLowell 's diverse communities will gather along the Merrimack River to celebrate this vital
tradition of the city's largest immigrant communities.

I ately, there has been a lot of focus on what is negative about Cambodian youth. Few people I encounter
have anything good to say about young
people. They always paint this picture
of children joining gangs. However, I
see just the opposite. At a recent
Khmer Cultural Institute
fundraising event, I
found young people
who are doing well.
As children of foreign-born parents, they
have to deal with language
and cultural problems, racism, self-doubt, poverty and
the desire to fit into the mainstream society. They have to
deal with peer pressure to join
gangs or do drugs and commit
petty crimes. The few who have
followed the wrong path sometimes drag other Cambodian
youth with them. The community at large
seems to have adopted a view of Cambodian youth as troublemakers. Because
of this the police are on constant alert
everywhere, pestering rather than trying to befriend, educate and guide them.
Local authorities often assume the worst,
expecting these children to fail. Sometimes when people expect the worst, that
is what they get.
However, what the youth need, instead, is unconditional love and moral
guidance from their families, and support from the community. They need
positive role models who can demonstrate the difference between right and
wrong. They need respect, and they
need to be valued as people who can
contribute to this society. And the community needs to provide opportunities
in which the youth can find the alternatives from wrong. Otherwise, we leave
the youth isolated and alone to create a
world they have viewed through misguided violent movies and video games
that show only the use of force and violence as a way oflife.
Despite the dangers that exist in this
ever-increasingly violent society,
there are many youth
who
resist
temptations
that exist. And it is important that
we recognize their successes and focus
less on the negatives. We need to admire and praise them when they do follow the right path, for pulling through
without getting their hands and minds
dirtied in drugs or gang violence. We
need to affirm that they are valued as
good productive citizens.
At the Rogers Middle School in
Lowell, where there are many Cambodian students, I had the pleasure of meeting groups of young people who when
asked what they want to become gave a
variety ofanswers: pediatricians, teachers, lawyers, and actors, and engineers.
They are staying in school and are succeeding with A's and B's. They are
thinking about and looking forward to
high school and then going on to college. Sometimes, though, the good students don't always look the way adults
might expect them to or want them to.
Usually, little or few positive things
are said about the Cambodian youth in
Lowell. The way they dress, color their
hair and talk among their peers often put
them in the image of a gang. Some of
these kids have been nothing but normal even though how they choose to
express their trendy, adolescent styles
can and may subject them to other
people' s judgment. Sometimes, adults
throw them all into one bowl of soup.
When a few misbehave, the rest are also
labeled "bad egg," or as the Cambodians would say, "bad seed." In spite ofit
all, these eighth graders at these vario u sschools are doing well. They're
excelling in science, math and
English and even Khmer language. Some can read and
write Khmer better than some
Cambodian adults. With the
right motivation, training and
encouragement, in a few
years when these kids are
in college and in the job
field, they will become
valuable workers of the
future since they are literate in both cultures
and languages.
The
today's
middle school generation is made
up of mostly Cambodian-American born
citizens. They speak fluent, unaccented
American English and they are culturally fluid in their adaptation to the social
reality of this country. They are American in their attitude, their style of dress,
and mannerism even though their parents expect them to keep and follow Cambodian traditions, social values and spiritual beliefs. Few of them have any ties
to or knowledge of Cambodia. Some
parents would tell them about their
Khmer Rouge experience, and that would
become their only context to Cambodia.
The parents tell them about their hardship and struggles with the hope that
their children understand and would not
take this life and the opportunity this
country offers for granted. They want
their children to work hard, stay in school
and be somebody they can never be.
All their years have been lived in the
war and in the violence of mass genocide, and sometimes it is very difficult
for them to convey, even with tears, to
their children the importance of education to their future .

crisis reached their young children in
Cranston, Rhode Island. The children
are very worried about their parents.
Phone lines in Cambodia are cut. Everything has been shut down. Phnom Penh
is silenced once again by flying bullets
and looters who trash everything and
take whatever they need home. There's
so much social and economic disparity
in Cambodia. The top ten percent are
filthy rich and the rest are at the bottom
pit of society. Due to the war and the
long history of massacre and human violence, people have learned not to trust
each other for anything. Most people
are marginalized by the loss of compassion and lawlessness. Cambodia is now
a jungle of human rage and anger.
Within this jungle there is isolation
and pain. Another CMAA staff knows
about this pain because of his own family; a sister may have ovarian cancer. She
lives in an impoverished countryside as
a widow with four little children who have
never seen the light of peace. They were
born to run from violence and the sound
of bombs and grenades exploding, the
sound of AK-47 spraying the sky, day
and night at odd hours. Every time war
comes, she has to gather her children
and run. Now that she is sick in bed, she
might have to stay put with her children
in the house; some soldiers might come
along and bum down her house. This is
how bad and lawless these soldiers are.
As a result of this lawlessness and a
belief that there is little that can be done
to help Cambodia, the humanitarian organizations are in the process of pulling
out. Also, it is likely that international
aid will dry up. The chaos in Cambodia
brings fear for people's safety: the Thai
government has loaded their people and
brought them back home, and other
countries are looking at ways to get their
people out. The Cambodian in Lowell
are in despair. Some withdraw into their
complacency. Some are angry about the
situation. Most people worry about
their family members they left behind.
Another war means a step back into the
Dark Ages. Cambodia will be isolated
again from the international community.
To survive, Cambodia needs peace. If
peace does not come, there will be no
Cambodia left for the world to visit. ■

L
ong and sleek, brightly colored, with curving prows
pointing high, the fleet of racing boats looks from
the bottom of the sea to come and play in the water.
Light glints off paddles plunging in unison into the river.
Drums beat time. The arms of dancers undulate gracefully in
the bows. Along the shores of the
Tonle Sap river, crowds cheer while
ministers, ambassadors and other
dignitaries surround the King in his
pavilion. Villagers gather from far
and wide-for many, their only occasion to visit their capital- to encourage their boat to victory. It is
the Water Festival, Cambodia's biggest and most gala celebration: three
days in November when the nation
puts aside work and care, and honors the great naval warriors and accomplishments of the past. The celebration also marks a unique natural phenomenon: the changing of
the flow of the Tonle Sap, the river
and lake system which is the heart
of Cambodia. From Phnom Penh to
Siemreap, this land of water turns
into one grand party- Cambodia's
Mardi Gras.
Hundreds of longboats, propelled
by precision-trained crews, compete
for honor and glory in two-and three
boat heats along a 1,000-meter
course to the King's Pavilion in
Phnom Penh. In Siemreap, smaller
boats race in the more confined waters of Angkor Wat' s moat.
The Festival comprises three celebrations-a tribute to water, the ceremony of Ok Ambok (the
pounding of the Rice), and Sampeah Preah Khai (the full moon
Prayers).
The Pounding of the Rice stems from Buddhist mythol
ogy about a female giant who can predict the weather. Farmers
honor her power each year. The Full Moon Prayers are dedicated to the power of a rabbit that took its own life in a fire to
serve as food for a god who visited Earth as an emaciated old
man. According to Khmer mythology, the rabbit symbolizes
fidelity, justice, and honesty. Many celebrants say they can
see its form traced in the full moon by the god. As night falls
and the full moon rises, showers of fireworks light up the sky,
exploding with booms and pops that mix with cheers of awe
and hoy. Enormous balloons are "fed to the moon" and a
flotilla of"fairy boats" outlined by lights slips gracefully through
the dusk.
At midnight, flatted rice, called
ambok, b ananas and coconut
juice are offered to the moon,
which returns the thanks with a
bright smile from heaven. In a
Buddhist ceremony, a line of
candles is gingerly rotated three
times on a rod: their falling wax
reveals the future.
The Phnom Penh festival is the
largest, with more than one million people crowding the banks
of the capital's riverfront, but the
Siemreap celebration is growing
in popularity. Celebrated in the
early 1960s at Angkor Wat, presided over by King Norodom
Sihanouk, the festival was revived at the temple in 1994, with
fishing boats racing. Two years
later the boats were replaced by
special, smaller versions of classic longboats. The Siemreap festival offers spectators the splendid sight of racers competing as
dusk falls while the setting sun
transforms the towers of Angkor
Wat to radiant spires- as cicadas and birds hum in the forests.
The Water Festival commemorates an era when naval forces
fought for control of a land dominated by water, dating as far
back as the Funan era (3 rd to 6th century). King Jayavarman VII
hailed his armada's victory over a Cham fleet in 1181, a battle

staff and some other community members were there to witness the historical
moment. The exchange of signature between Mr. James Conway III, former
owner, and CMAA Board President, Mr.
Rithy Uong, brought many smiles and
awes.
The building is gigantic from the
outside and the
inside.
As
people were taking a tour of the
inside space,
there was a lot of
ideas around
what they would
do with all the
space. Everybody had something in mind.
An exhibition

A dance studio
over there. Plans
and possibilities
seemed limitless.
There are three
floors to move, create, do and make
things happen. All we have to do is
work together and construct a dream
the importance of the community's ownership to this building.
"It belongs to all of us," he said.
"We must work together and make something great out of it."
Human and financial resources
needed to develop the building could
only come from the community's efforts
and the willingness of individuals to be
involved in its various stages of development. This is why working together
is so important. The CMAA hopes that
by the end of August, it can move in to
its new home. Once moved in, the work
to renovate the building further for commercial uses will begin step by step.
The building requires a lot of renovation work from the inside and outside.
Windows need to be fixed. The inside
needs to be cleaned top to bottom. The
building is 107 years old. It has gone
through many historical moments. It has
been used and weathered down through
the years . It will not be cheap to renovate and revitalize it. The CMAA estimates that it will need close to a million
dollars just to fix the space for its own
use. However, it looks very optimistic.
An architect has already been identified
to work on the building. A grant from
the city and funding from some private
sources have already been pooled as the
starting point. Plans to draw more capital toward the project is underway.
Many people support and share our excitement toward this building and how
we envision it as our community and
cultural as well as business center. This
is a dream come true for everyone in the
Cambodian community. This dream will
further be realized and strengthened in
time with every Cambodian, young and
old, working hand in hand toward that
same dream. As a community, the Cambodians have not been very visible in
Lowell. With this building and all the
work people plan to do, the Cambodians
hope to gain greater
socio-economic and political access and become even more visible
to the larger society.
As planned, the
CMAA ' s first goal is to
move in as soon as it is
feasible. The office
space will all be cleaned
up and used. Young
volunteers will be recruited to help. Young
people have asked for a
gym where they can
play sports and be safe.

ling groups together while at the same
time relieving the burden on the foster
care system. House One allows for the
annulization of Bridge Homes in FY 98.
Commonworks
Another major change in our out of home
care continuum has been the restructuring of the Commonworks Program. Residential care networks for adolescents,
Commonworks provides linked. Flexible
programs designed to keep adolescents
in progressively less restrictive settings
and provide better continuity of care,
more appropriate and timely discharge
from the system, heightened attention
to education work with an adolescent's
family and six months of after care services. For the first time, funding will follow the child and the child's needs rather
than the child following the money.
Education
For the children who are in the care of
DSS are their parents. We must make
the critical decisions that impact their
lives. I take that responsibility very seriously, particularly with regard to education. For kids who have suffered the
problems that our kids have, education
can be the most normalizing part of their
lives. It can also be the route to success
for many of them. Therefore, we have
placed a huge emphasis on ensuring kids
in state care get the education they deserve, and that they are educated in the
least restrictive setting. We now have
education specialists in four of our six
regions, have developed joint protocols
with the Department of Education and
are working to see that every child in
DSS care has the appropriate education
plan.
This past fall we held training throughout the state for school systems on their
roles and responsibilities as mandated
reporters. More than 450 people attended this training. In an innovative
collaboration with DOE and the Kellogg
Foundation, DSS has awarded grants to
six schools with high numbers of foster
children to enable them to work closely
with these children, foster parents and
teachers to help smooth the way for
these children to succeed in school.
CASEWORK INNOVATIONS
Throughout my tenure as Commissioner,
I have stressed the need for bringing
addition~! partners to the table in order
to provide the best possible services to
children and families.
It's cliche to say "it takes a village to
raise a child "but it certainly does take
more than just DSS. Several initiatives
are helping us by drawing upon a rich
assortment of professionals in developing the right approach to client needs.
Here are three:
Collaborative Assessment Program (CAP)
The CAP is designed to improve the
coordination of services between DMH
and DSS, to seriously emotionally disturbed children and adolescents and
their families and is in collaboration and
has prevented families from having to
shop around to find the services they
need for their children. We are in the
process of adding a second team and
hope to have all six regions operational
within a year.
one for every District Attorney in the
state. These teams are established so
that DSS, the DAs and loc<J,l police jointly
interview children who may have been
sexually abused. For a child, these teams
ease the pain of being interviewed several times and for DSS and the law enforcement agencies, it ensures closer coordination throughout the investigation.
In 1993 Governor Weld signed a tough
new law criminalizing child abuse. This
bill, known as the O'Brien Bill for Senator Shanpon O'Brien, carries a maximum
penalty of 15 years for persons who
abuse children or allow children to
abused. It carries with it a strong and
important message that child abuse will
not be tolerated. With Secretary Gallant, I want to re-examine and broaden
the referrals we make to the district attorneys for investigation by local or state
police. I also want to begin a dialogue
about how we can even further
strengthen our coordination of investigations with local and state police officials through the district attorneys offices. We need to send parents who
abuse their children the strongest possible message: this will not be tolerated.
Multi-Disciplinary Assessment Teams
Adding the multi-disciplinary team approach to DSS is one of the last major
recommendations of the Foster Care
Commission to be implemented. Now
that each area office has a specialized
assessment unit, we have also started
multi-disciplinary assessment teams in
nine of our 26 offices. These teams are
comprised of community professionals
who will assess high risk cases, including cases with sexual abuse as an issue
and several neglect allegations, and
make recommendations for the appropriate services for the family. These
teams expand DSS' diagnostic capacity
by bringing professionals such as doctors, mental health professionals, the
state's managed care provider for Medicaid mental health and substance abuse,
domestic violence and substance abuse
specialists, and parent advocates, in at
the front end of case.
Sexual Abuse Intervention Networks
(SAIN)
This year's budget provides funding to
expand from five SAIN teams to twelve:
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND CHILD CARE
I'll take a minute to talk about two other
issues that are extremely important to
the work we do at DSS-domestic violence and child care.
Domestic Violence
As I said at the beginning, domestic violence rears its ugly head in about 60 percent of all of our cases. Massachusetts
is a national leader in this arena. It is no
secret that is a strong c·onnection between woman abuse and child abuse.
Our domestic violence consultants provide training and case consultation to
social workers and managers, and direct
services to DSS involved battered
women. House One contains a request
to convert these consultant positions
to full-time employee positions. I urge
you to support this. These consultants
have helped child protective staff to
understand the connection between
child abuse and domestic violence. We
want to work with these women to keep

�Nobility In Stone
It's a bewildering array of
statues, artifacts and basreliefs that symbolized the
power and the glory of the
Khmer Empire some 900
years ago. Yet, it has been
unveiled, for
the first time,
to an enraptured world-at
the National
Gallery of the
Grand Palais in
Paris.
The "Angkor and
Ten Centuries of
Khmer Art"
exhibition opened
in Paris on January 31 and will run
for four months
before moving to
Washington DC
and then Japan.
The exhibition is
organized by the
Royal Government of Cambodia, the Reunion
des Musees
Nationaux (the
national body in
charged of all
museumsm
France) and the
National Gallery
of Art, Washington.
"It is an important
sign for Cambodia" said French President Jacques
Chirac. In fact, the exhibition has
created such an impact that at least
three newspapers have published
special issues on the arts of
Angkor, while television and the
daily papers like Le Figaro and Le
Amonde have covered the event
with special reports.
And posters showing the head of
Jayavarman VII-the greatest of
the Khmer rulers known for the
haunting Bayon- are plastered
over the walls of the metro and the
sides of buses.
The statues, displayed in four
rooms, are magnificent ... sheer
magic. And why not, for no
civilization in Southeast Asia
produced such creative splendor
and architectural ingenuity.
The statue of Durga opens the
exhibition. An example of the
Indian influence on Khmer art, its
symmetry and bole refinement has
already mesmerized thousands, the

their families together, except when they
are incapable of protecting their children. That's where the line is drawn.
The budget also contains a request for
$450,000 to increase the availability of
visitation centers by supporting six centers, one for each region of the state.
These visitation centers are crucial in
keeping a mother sage after she has
separated form the offender and ensuring that children are protected.
Child Care
I am very proud of our work in child care.
DSS operates approximately $100 million
of child care services. All of this money
is in contracted child care services and
most of it is directed towards supporting income eligible child care which re- .
quires close coordination with EOHHS
and DTA as it supports welfare recipients and the working poor. When I
started as commissioner four years ago,
there was no child care support at DSS.
Today there is a highly professional unit
that has undertaken the considerable
work of improving the state's child care
services. We have restructured teen
parent child care, worked with the trial
courts to provide day care in several
courts, begun monitoring providers and
worked diligently on rate adjustment issues. During the coming fiscal year we
will reexamine our protective day carethat day care provided to DSS familiesto ~ee '3/.here additional improvements
c·an,.be made. Protective child care is
one· of the most basis preventive services we offer as it allows us to place the
child in a safe environment during the
day and to work on family issues simultaneously. And, as we continue to implement welfare reform, we will continue to
work in close collaboration with DTA
and EOHHS around the policy and rate
issues associated with child care.
CONCLUSION
As we head into FY98, it is clear from my
testimony that there is much on our plate
atDSS. We are on the front line of some
of the ·most devastating issues facing
today's children and families. Over the
past four years we have successfully

years-and

hard to find.

the biggest ceremony is reserved for
when the boat
is launched
for the first
time.
The
ceremony commemorates
the spirits of
the

and
Neang Hing,
who
preserves the

Building, painting, naming, racing, and

over $2,000-all of these things involve a great commitment by communities. The boat usually represents a Wat where it is stored in a
place of honor during the year-revered with incense, flowers and offerings- under an open-air rooftop
which respects the spirit guardian of
the vessel. The Whole villages typically accompany the boat to the

great pride and honor.

and spirits influence the naming process which is done under consultation with elders and monks; and it is
not uncommon for a name to be born
of a dream. "Olden Garuda", "Tiger
Descending the Mountain", "Powerful White Woman", "Powerfu
Black Woman", and "Magic-eyed
Woman": many of the names resonate the female spirit of the vessel.
The building of a boat is accompanied by ceremony at each stage-
most significant feature is put in
place: the eyes. For it is the eyes,
which awake the boat's spirit and
give life to the racers.
Making a racing boat, says Sok, who
has been a boat builder since the age
of 18, takes a lot of thought, patience
and work. But look at the sleek boats
as they race past you on the river or
the moat-look at the high deer neck
at the bow and the snake's tail at the
stern, see the eyes that embody the
spirit, and the light flashing off 40
paddles, listen to the _
beat of the
rhythm, you will know the work was
well done. ■

Bringing tlz c Community Together to Build for the Future
June 2, 1997
Dear Fellow Cambodians and Friends:
The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC will be hosting an unprecedented
exhibition of Khmer Art from June 29, 1997 to September 28, 1997. This is the first and possibly
the last major exhibition of Cambodian sculpture to be shown in the United States. There will be
over 99 pieces of sculpture of Angkor and ancient Cambodia on display at the exhibit in a setting
that is uniquely designed to bring to life the splendor and richness of Khmer arts artd culture.
I wouldlike to take this once in a life time opportunity to showcase the togetherness and
support of the Cambodian-American community for this important function of great significance
and visibility to us . Your assistance and support in helping to promote the exhibition to the
community is very much needed . I also urge you and your family to make plan to attend the
exhibition. The Cambodian-American community in the greater Washington, DC metropolitan
area will provide a Khmer traditional dance and music presentation at the two main opening
functions pmviding our community with tremendous exposure at the international level. The
exhibition will also featured a publication, Sculpture of Angkor and Ancient Cambodia:
Millennium of Glory, which is a 419 page catalogue with color and black and white illustrations
of every object of the show as well a comprehensive account of Cambodian history, religion, and
architecture. These types of initiatives will have an everlasting effect on our community and CNC
on-going efforts to further develop, promote, and advance the Cambodian community and people
in the United States and abroad .
I thank you for your continuou s support . If you have any questions about the exhibition
or any of the programs and/or membership with the Cambodian Network Council, please do not
hesitate to contact ~e by telephone at 202-546-9144, fax at 202-546-9147, or Email to

�CHILDREN/From page 9
The children I talked to at Rogers
School were very mature in reflecting on
the hardship and the struggles of their
parents. Although it's still hard for them
to grasp and understand everything that
their parents told them, they listen and
take their parents' lectures as their words
of love. Most children would flourish
with success with the support of a community of caring people. They include
teachers, neighbors, government officials, friends and family members to urge
and support them on and to let them
demonstrate the beauty of their customs
and their connection to their cultural
heritage. A fundraising event is sponsored and organized by these children,
with the help of teacher like Mr. Seng
Prum, to make this New Year's celebration possible.
Another teacher is Mr. Thy Oeur,
who came to the U.S. in 1982 as an orphan under the Lutheran Service as an
unaccompanied minor. He was one
among thousands of Cambodian orphans brought to the New England area,
and who have succeeded in life in spite

no" advice. "Don't join gangs, go to
school everyday to make your parents
proud, get along with others and stay
out of trouble." ■

and out of trouble. This is that opportunity for the CMAA to actually create
something for young people so they can
have a place to come and learn, play and
even work. With this building, there's
certainly enough space just for that.
There will be enough room for ESL and
citizenship classes, Daycare, Dance studio, gymnasium, computers, etc. The
building consists of three floors, each
with its unique space for innovative design and development for various purposes.
Thanks to Mr. James Conway III, his
family and the Courier Corporation for
their generous donation. Let's join
hands and work together toward this
common dream. Feel free to contribute
money, skills and expertise that you may
have to this project. Come by and visit
us at anytime. If anybody has any questions, the CMAA Director, Mr.

know that they are valued as a human
being.
The bi-lingual teachers at Rogers
School have been an important link to
these children's learning motivation.
These few Khmer teachers are working
hard to provide models of good behavior, and they are determined to pass on
Cambodian traditions and values to their
students. They don't want them to forget their roots and where their parents
are coming from. One of these Khmer
teachers is Mr. Seng Prum. He teaches
math, science and Khmer literature to
fifth graders. He addresses his students
as his children. Mr. Prum works very
hard every year to organize a New Year's
celebration, at which the children dance,
of the various difficulties he faced in his
process of social, physical and psychological adjustment to this country. He
now teaches math and science, and he
gives a lot of his -time to tutoring students who need it.
A few months ago, Rogers hired a
new guidance counselor, Mr. Hai Cheng,
who was also, one of the Cambodian
orphans came as an unaccompanied minor and placed in a foster family in
Amherst. In his foster family, he's the
first to have a Master's degree.
When asked what they would like to
advise other young people to do, the
students at Rogers Middle School all
had good advice and good intentions
for the next generation. "Don't be preju-

By Susan Tucke, LSW DSS, Lowell Area Office
T
he Department of Social Ser
vices recently launched a
campaign to recruit, train and
open 1,000 new foster homes. These
new homes will be a critical resource
for at-risk children, including juvenile
firesetters. The effort results from
two separate but related concerns.
First, the Department is trying to reduce the numbers of children in each
foster home to prevent overcrowding. Secondly, the Department has
stricter criteria for foster homes to
maintain the highest level of quality
care for children in crisis situations.
The recruitment campaign is aimed
at informing the public of the critical
need for foster care, and of the important and rewarding role a foster
parent can play in the life ofa vulnerable child. One outreach strategy that
is showing success is having our recruiters attend as many community
meetings as they can, as often as they
can, to make the information exchange
personal and to encourage the interest of people who are already committed to making a difference in their
community.
Another change in the works is the
shift to specialized foster homes.
These are residences that can provide
more structure, stability and individualized attention. These homes are necessary when children are in transition
form a stay at a psychiatric hospital.
These children have more services that
require the attention and monitoring
from foster parents, and typically there
is only one foster child in a specialized home. Specialized Foster parents receive additional training and
support and often have to make adjustments to the physical environment
to meet the special needs of children.
This is the type of foster home that is
needed for juvenile fire setters.

Last year, the Lowell Area Office,
working in conjunction with Fire Solutions and the Massachusetts Coalition for Juvenile Firesetter , Intervention Programs, developed a pilot program, called Fire Awareness in Foster Homes. This is a train the trainer
model designed to provide foster parents with the skills they need to support the intervention of fire setting in
foster children. The model we developed is built on the MAPP training
system that all foster parents currently
attend.
It includes units on making the
home safer and on working with fire
setter intervention programs to support the treatment the child receives
outside of the home. We stress to all
foster parents that you don't have to
have a fire setter your home to have a
fire setters in your home to have a
fire-safety is a day to day issue for
families and it takes an effort to maintain a secure, hazard-free environment. We also emphasize that a child
doesn't have to have emotional problems to be interested in fire. It is not
exclusive to foster children.
Even with our specialized training
and support, foster parents are often
reluctant to take a child with a fire
setting history into their homes. This
fear is understandable, but we must
find enough safe homes for crisis fire
setters in our system. Many of the
children on our case load who set fires
do so to call for help. We need to
respond to that call. You can help by
encouraging people who work in your 1
networks, who know that this is a treatable behavior, and who have success
with these children, to consider opening their homes a s specialized foster
parents. For more information, contact the DSS of nearest to you. ■

freestanding sculptures radiate an
uninhabited naturalness: the figures
are slender and graceful and
lovingly chiseled.
From that point, visitors will experience one surprise after another.
Harihara , that brings together
three gods, Shiva and Vishnu, was
created at the dawn of the
Angkorian period.
One of the most stunning of the
exhibits is the lying bronze statue of
Vishnu from the Mebon temple.
The six-meter long statue, discovered in 1936, must have been cast
in serveral sections.
What remains today
is the head and a
portion of the torso.
A striking feature of
the style of this
sculpture is the
sculptor's breaking
with convention by
giving an impression
of movement and
expressiveness. The
reclining God was
lying on a snake.
Zhou Daguan,
Chinese envoy who
visited Angkor in
1296, was captivated
byit.
Then there are the
two heads of
Jayavarman VII, and
one of Buddha. The
head of Jayavarman
VII-a study of
regal composure,
complete with an
enigmatic smile-is
on loan from the
National Museum in
Phnom Penh. A
little about this remarkable king,
building activity reached a feverish
rate during the reign of this king
who also built palaces, roads and
hospitals. As his untiring creativity
diversified, Jayavarman's sense of
his own preeminence grew. Before long, he considered himself to
be a living Buddha-which explains why gigantic stone faces of
him were carved to gaze down on
onlookers from all towers of the
city's gateways.
To make the exhibition a complete
show of Khmer masterpieces there
is the wooden carved Orant in
praying posture. This statue is,
indeed, a rare piece-having
survived centuries of turmoil and
vandalism.
We will never be able to fathom
the sheer immensity of Khmer
architecture between the 9th and
the 13 th century. So, seven hundreds later, we will have to be
satisfied with only a keyhole view
of this extraordinary creativity. For
that's what the exhibition in Paris
offers us. ■

he end of the Khmer
Rouge is inevitable. Pol
Pot no longer has control
over his main men. Many of his soldiers have been defecting and joining
the current coalition of Hun Sen's and
Prince Ranaridh 's government. In
fact, two of Pol Pot's key players are
trying to work with the current government. Ta Mok, known as the
"butcher," has de fected. Khiev
Samphan, who Pol Pot has called a
traitor, has been trying to negotiate
peace with the intention of participating in the current government in some
ways. However, he won't succeed
since there has been so much opposition against him. He was badly attacked by an angry mob in 1993 when
he tried to participate in the UN-monitored elections.
Pol Pot is now alone in his crusade. According to a recent article by
the Associated Press written by Robin
McDowell, Saturday, June 14, 1997,
Pol Pot executed his own defense
chief, Son Sen. He had Son Sen and
ten members of his family shot, and
then as if the job wasn't quite finished,
he had trucks run over the corpses.
Son Sen was responsible for running
the Tuol Sleng during the Khmer
Rouge occupation from 1975-1979.
Tuol Sleng was a high school turned
into a torture prison, where "enemies
of the state" were taken to be tortured
and killed. Today, the former prison
stands as a
museum
where visitors
can see photos
of victims and
various types
of weapons
used for torture.
F r o m
1975-1979,
Pol Pot was
responsible for
one of the
most brutal regimes in the
world. He has
been called the
"Hitl er" of
Asia. The inte rna ti o na l
community,
including CamI
bodians residing abroad, want him
tried for crimes against humanity.
Three million or more people were
treated atrociously: maimed, tortured
and killed. Every Cambodian has lost
someone in his or her family to the
Khmer Rouge.
Since all Cambodians have been
affected by the killings, they have
strong feelings about what should happen to Pol Pot. Mr. Dith Pran, whose
life was portrayed in the movie The
Killing Fields, is a strong advocate
for putting Pol Pot on trial to face an
international tribunal court. Some
Cambodians in Lowell have also expressed the need to try Pol Pot and
put him away. In Cambodia, capital
punishment is banned. Pol Pot, when
found guilty, would not be executed;
he would be jailed for life. However,
this would not be his only punishment
since Cambodians believe in the process of reincarnation. Those who
commit
atrocious
acts against
other people
in this life
will have to
pay for it in
the next one.
Clearly, Pol
Pot will suffer in his
next life.
Despite the
magnitude
of suffering
inflicted on
the Cambodian people
by the Pol
Pot regime,
most CamNate Th.tyer, Far-Eastern Economic Review / ABC News
bodians do
not like to talk about the past. In fact,
there's no mention of the Khmer
Rouge in the current school curriculum in Cambodia. Unfortunately, this

�On June 4, 1997, Noreth T. Som, my co-worker and my good friend as well as one of the community's most
needed leaders died. This is for him.
How could you leave so sudden, so fast, so easy? Life was a
struggle. The escape from Cambodia was hard. You survived to die
like this? You have come so far across a jungle to flee war and mass
genocide. In the refugee camp, you dwelled within barbed wired fences
hoping to be resettled in another continent. You got your wish. You
got to live the American dream: own a car, pay the rent and keep up
with all the bills, drive across highways, work with many different
people, go to school, and learn ways to map out a life for yourself and
family. There's so much to learn, to absorb, so many things to see, to
be and to do, so many hopes and dreams to digest. But at the same time
you held so much pain in your heart, so much hidden loss and grief; I
have felt this in every eye contact we made. Yet, you went on smiling,
thinking of only today with or without tomorrow, trying to survive the
best way you could.
I think of you now and all the spirits of those who have gone
before me, and it was an honor to have had the chance to know you.
I am grateful to you, for your delight in me, your simple smile, your
kindness and humility. I want to let you know that I am very angry
that you left us. Your wife, your daughters, especially the little one
who will never get to see you old, feel your gray hair and print your wrinkles onto her
palms, the community and I still want and need you here. I am sorry to have to accept that
you 're gone. It's not your fault. This is part of the natural scheme of things. Life gives,
death takes. I am very familiar with this. I have dealt with grief, loss, remorse and
sadness before. You won 't be the last. Death comes to us all. I won't let death conquer my
living spirit. I'll celebrate you and pass you down in memory so that you may live an
eternity. This is how we can overcome death.
I
was with Noreth, along with my other co-workers,
Rassany and Khan, the day before he died. We went
to the state house in Boston together to attend the
Toxic Used Reduction Institute's Grantee Award Ceremony. We left a little early because I got bored and
took it upon myself to convince the rest of my colleagues
to leave. We were having a great time. On the way
back, we wanted to stop in Chinatown to get Dymsum,
but there was no parking. We decided to wait to get
something to eat in Lowell. As we were driving back,
Rassany was telling us her plan to go camping. Noreth
was thinking out loud about the places he wanted to take
his daughter, Moradeth, and telling us about all the fun
things they did together the week before. Since I've
known him, Noreth was always a good father to his two
daughters. He always talked about them. He never
talked much about himself.
· It was such a bizarre feeling that he could be gone
the next day just like that. He was such a healthy person. It made death look so easy. Life on the other hand
is so difficult. We had made plans for the whole week as
to what we were going to do at work and for fun.
At his funeral at the Glory Buddhist Temple, there
was Noreth, dead in a mahogany casket. His lips all
sealed. His face looked as though it was a piece of
molded clay. I was hoping for signs of movement to his

lifelessness. -I heard that some people have come back
from their death. I thought that maybe Noreth was just
taking a walk. He was on his way back to his body. Yet,
there was no sign of life. The flowers kept piling tip
around his coffin, choking him. I guess it all meant
goodbye.
My mind kept going back to the day before, how
we had so much fun with each other, joking and laughing. I thought about all the little things he did, the way he
carried himself during our work meetings, how he rephrased what everyone had said so that he could make it
clear for himself. And I thought about the Southeast
Water Festival that he had helped to plan but won't get
to participate in. I thought about the kind of man he was,
always humble, always kind and considerate to everyone. The community has trusted him to bring to them
health messages on TV. People working in various social agencies knew him. He was a good networking
person. He was always eager and willing to learn. He
never put himself above others. I came to respect him
as a friend and an older brother. Whenever I needed a
ride, he would take me. He was so excited about his
new green Ford that he just bought and only used for two
weeks before he died. He was always willing to share
POL POT/from page 25
lack of accuracy in education leads to an ignorance about
historical facts. Children think Pol Pot was a joke and that
he never existed. The danger is that history can repeat
itself if we choose to ignore the atrocities of the past.
In fact, these past atrocities continue into the present.
Pol Pot, who is now 69 years old, remains the murderer
that he was. According to Nhek Bunchhay, the army chief
of the current government, Pol Pot is trying to kill as
many people around him as possible, and then leave by
taking his own life. Just like Hitler.
It is difficult to comprehend how such men could kill
so many people, causing so much suffering in so many
lives. To this day, people are still badly wounded. In Cambodia, there is feuding between Hun Sen and Prince
Ranaridh. This feuding and the violence that surrounds is
an example of the wounds left by Pol Pot. People no longer
know how to work together in a non-violent way, without
having to resort to threats and killings. Many Cambodians
have been affected by the war and the massive amounts of
violence they were subjected to. As a result, some are paralyzed by fear and mistrust for each other. This paralysis
his car and his good fortune.
Without him, I feel a kind of void in my heart.
Through working with him, I have come to know his kindness, his heart, his respect for others and the things he
usually did as part of his personal routine when he worked
with people. I recorded him in my diary, and I still have
memories of how he talked, how he smiled, laughed and
the things he usually said to give advice when I asked for
his help. He always thought of others before himself.
His 'hello' and 'how are you?' were always consistent,
without fail.
I remembered when I first came to Lowell and
started working on the Southeast Asian Environmental
Justice Project with him, he was very kind to show me
around the city and introduce me to other people he knew.
When he talked to people, he was always warm and full
of energy. He was always humble in his dealings with
other people. He was a man with a spiritual essence to
his being. Most importantly, he was a man whose life
was an example to other Cambodians in the community.
He was always interested in learning from others, even
from a person younger than he. He always gave people
praises and boasted their spirits with his offering of friendship. I will never forget you, Big Brother. I will miss you
dearly. ■
leads to an abundance of problems within the community.
Pol Pot's exact whereabouts remain unknown. If he is
captured alive, there will be conflict as to how to deal with
him as well. We hope that his captors take him alive so that
he can go to trial. Though there are many who would like
to see Pol Pot and his former rulers dead, there is justification for the argument that calls for his trial. An international tribunal would bring Pol Pot's heinous deeds into full
view for all the world to see. If on the other hand his
captors choose to kill him, there is the risk that Pol Pot's
crimes against humanity will go untold and become easier
to forget. If Cambodia can erase mention of Pol Pot in the
history books, think how easy it would be for the rest of
the world to look away and forget. Instead, Cambodia and
the world should look closely at the past, scrutinizing the
horror. It is only through bringing Pol Pot to trial that the
full horror will be btought to light. And then Pol Pot must
be held accountable for these crimes by going to jail for
life. Somehow the killing must stop. Somehow the world
must collectively put an end to genocide. Somehow the
world must remember the lives lost so that we can all say
"never again." ■

races. The first round-with seated rowers-represents the
elite forces who were sent into battle first, and are followed by
the standing rowers, the second wave of any sea-born attack:
all storming towards victory.
The sight of 300 boats gathering at the golden pavilion on
the Tonie Sap is the festival's climax. You will feel the glory of
the festival in your heart-still beating quickly to the pace of
the drummers. An armada of boats gathers in front of the
King's pavilion as the race ends. The oldest baku, Brahman
priest, stands with saber in the first boat and cuts an imaginary
line unleashing the waters of the Tonie Sap to flow freely towards the sea. Oars raised, rowers from throughout the country cheer jubilantly: "Chey-yo Samdech Euv!" - Long live the
King! Another baku heralds the moment with trumpets from a
conch shell. It is a moment unlike any other in the world:
Cambodia's moment. ■

A FULL DAY OF EXCITING ACTIVITIES FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY: EXHIBITS, FOOD, CULTURAL DANCES, MUSIC & MORE ...
For centuries, in Southeast Asia, a Water Festival has been
organized annually to celebrate the importance of water in all
·aspects of life. Water was and is important to agricultural
production and the food chain of the Cambodian people. Water
also has many spiritual uses in the Cambodian religion, which is
Buddhism. November is their time to thank the water spirit and
renew their hope and faith in their own economic prosperity.
People of all ages from the cities, towns, and villages would gather
at the riverbanks to sing, dance, watch boat racing and decorated
boats float by. This Southeast Asian Water Festival seeks to build
and revitalize, in Lowell, a community tradition with a focus on
water that includes the environment. The Mekong River that runs
throughout Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam will
serve as a cultural backdrop for the Southeast Asian Water
Festival in Lowell. Asian and non-Asian youth and elders will
gather together along Lowell's Merrimack River to celebrate a vital
tradition of one of this city's largest immigrant communities.

�Testimony
Linda K. Carlisle, Commissi~ner
Department of Social Services
(House Ways and Means Committee Hearing)
February 25, 1997
G
ood afternoon Chairman Haley
and members of the committee.
I am pleased to be here today as we
begin the next budget cycle. This
hearing is an opportunity for me to
update you on the significant progress
we continue to make at the Department of Social Services. I also view
this as an important opportunity to ask
you to join with the Governor and the
Department as Massachusetts continues to chart new territory in child
welfare nationally, and help me prepare the agency to meet the demands
and challenges confronting the children and families of the Commonwealth into the next century.
F
our years ago I spoke before this
committee for the first time as the
new commissioner at DSS charged
with the enormous task of restructuring the agency, restoring credibility and moving the Department forward. At that time I referred to the
agency as the Humpty Dumpty of
state government; it had fallen off the
wall and shattered into a hundred
pieces. The agency and its staff were
at rock bottom. But I had the best
gift a new commissioner could have:
the recommendations of the Foster
Care Commission ably chaired by Attorney Gael Maghony. That document
has guided much of our work for the
last four years.
T
ast year a bi-partisan group of rep
Lresentatives and senators, as well
as members of the administration, met
for several months to develop a consensus around additional changes and
funding for DSS, particularly focused
on foster care and new options for
out-of-home placement. We have
been diligent in our efforts to achieve
those bi-partisan goals, all of which
are consistent with the recommendations of the Foster Care Commission.
I
am pleased and proud to say that,
unlike poor Humpty who couldn't
be put back together, DSS has regained its place as a national leader in
child welfare, forging new ground
with innovative, effective programs
such as our domestic violence programs and Commonworks. We have
been able to do so because there is a
broad consensus in the state around
the direction in which we are moving. We are among a handful of states
in the forefront of the use of technology to improve casework with families. Beneath it all, we have built a
solid infrastructure. Although it
doesn't capture headlines, in solid infrastructure has meant a return to the
basics in case practices: doing a solid
investigation and assessment of family needs, seeing the children regularly
and managing caseloads so that social workers are not overburdened and
can truly support the families with
whom they work.
T
he DSS story is not a fairy tale or
nursery rhyme, but a real life
story, where every chapter details new
advances in dealing with troubled children and families, an overburdened
staff and some of society's greatest
ills. · DSS provides services to more
than 20,000 families with over 43,000
children on any day. We estimate that
about 60 percent of these families have
domestic violence issues, 60 percent
have substance abuse problems and
more than half of all the mothers we
work with had their first child as a
teenager. The combination of these
three societal problems is a powerful
indicator of the families that will one
day come into contact with a DSS
social worker.
A
s a society we must take the long
view. We must help break these
cycles and raise children who do not
abuse and neglect their own children
when they become parents. Most of
the problems we encounter are intergenerational, because most of us raise
our children the way we were raised.
The programs and initiatives we have
undertaken over the past several years
must be mindful of our responsibility
in shaping many of the adults of tomorrow; we must work to break
those debilitating cycles of child abuse
and neglect, domestic violence, substance abuse and teen pregnancy. I
urge you to help continue our work
through passage of the Supplemental
Budget request pending in the legislature and by supporting the funding
levels contained in the Governor's
House One budget.
STAFF SUPPORT
Caseload
SS's work begins with trained,
professional staff. My Job as
Commissioner is to make sure they
have manageAble workloads, the tools
to do the jobs (like phones and computers), and receive the guidance they
need by establishing expectations and
then measuring how . well we do
against those expectations. It is also
critical that all state agencies work cooperatively to ensure that services
such as mental health services, medical treatment, substance abuse treatment and day care are available to our
families.

M
odern Cambodia has its roots
deep in the mists of time. As
early as 4200BC, there were people
with the ability to make pots living
in a cave in north-western Cambodia. Human bones found at
Samrong Sen--settled since
lS00BC--indicate that prehistoric
Cambodians there resembled the
Cambodians of today ...
By Jane Turner
An old Cambodian legend has it
that the country ' s origins may be
traced to the marriage of a foreigner
and a dragon process- or nagiwhose father was the ruler of a waterlogged land.
One of several version of the tale
holds that a brahman called
Kaundinya, bearing a magical bow,
was sighted one day off the Cambodian shoreline. The dragon-princess
rowed out to meet the brahman but
he shot an arrow in her direction
which struck her boat. The act so
frightened the princess that, out of
fear, she agreed to marry the foreigner.
Kaundinya made a gift of clothing
to her, and the dragon-king, for his
part, "enlarged the possessions of his
son-in-law by drinking up the water
that covered the country. He later built
them a capital and changed the name
of the country to 'Kambuja' ." Their
marriage represented, among other
things, a union of the sun and moon
and the birth of the land of Cambodia.
While magical bows and dragon
kings shed little light on actual history,
the fable is an analogue for what historians do know about ancient Cambodia-and much of the rests on the
lives not of dragon kings but of the
Khmer people's ancient rulers. Much
of what is known about ancient Cambodia related to the Khmer kings because the sources of information are
inscriptions related to projects com-
missioned by them or by high placed
officials.
Cambodia's is a complex, ancient
history-a subj ect often shrouded in
mystery and as misinterpreted and
misunderstood as the nation's contemporary politics. While many of the
secrets of its ancient past have yet to
be reveal3d, legacies such as the magnificent Angkor Wat beg questions and
further research for generations to
come.
Perhaps the foremost question is,
"where the original people of Cambodia come from?" No one knows for
sure. There is much debate among
academics as to whether the earliest
arrivals were from India, China or
South East Asia. There is even debate that pre-historic peoples migrated
to the region.
Research has also failed to uncover which languages the original
Cambodians used before the advent
of an Indian-style alphabet around
AD300. But, as far back as 2000
years ago, the people of Cambodia
spoke languages linked to the Cambodian language used today- Khmer.
Languages that are part of the MonKhmer family remain across mainland
South-East Asia, on some of the islands and in certain parts oflndia, and
Chinese-influenced present-day Vietnamese is a distant relative of this family.
What is known, and has been confirmed by carbon testing, is that there
were people with the ability to make
pots, who lived in a cave at Laang
Spean in north-western Cambodia, as
early as 4200BC . It is presumed that
the first Cambodians arrived long before then. Human bones found at
Samrong Sen- settled since
l 500BC- indicate that pre-historic
Cambodians there resembled the Cambodians of today, when allowance is
made for Chinese and Vietnamese influences on the race.
It is thought the prehistoric
peoples of Cambodia were mainly fish
eaterslike their
descendants who lived
in struct u r e s
above the
ground
w hi Ch
they ac' c es s e d
using ladd e r s .
Early Chinese account s
describe
them as being "naked"; apparently
fashion and exterior adornment did not
figure prominently in those times.
Later, around 1000BC, they lived in
fortified villages, laid out in circular
fashion, sharing them with domesticated pigs and water buffalo. Rice
and root crops were grown.
"Indianisation" is an important feature, lasting more than 1000 years in
early Cambodian history, although it
is not known how the process was
triggered or operated at different
times. However, in the first 500 years
AD, Cambodia gleaned from India a
system of writing, Sanskrit, a panContinue to page 14

theon, meters for poetry, a social hierarchy system that differed from
caste, and fresh perspectives on everything from politics to architecture
and aesthetics. As academic David P.
chandler describes it in A History of
Cambodia: "Without India, Angkor
would never have been built, yet
Angkor was never an Indian city, any
more than medieval Paris was a Roman one."
The first few centuries AD in Cambodi a are known almost entirely from
the accounts of Chinese historiansthat is from the first century to the
middle of the sixth century. The late
eminent historian Geoge Coedes described the Cambodia of this time as
the center of a Hinduised kingdom
which controlled a large part of the
peninsula and which the Chinese called
"Funan". This word was a transcription of the Khmer phnom, meaning
mountain, according to Coedes. "The
title of these kings was significant,
'kings of the mountain', and it was
after this title that the Chinese named
the country."
More recently, historians such as
Chandler and Paul Wheatley have suggested there is stronger evidence that
the site of "Funan" was in fact a cult
site rather than a major unified kingdom. While it is possible that
chiefdoms in Cambodia occasionally
banded together and called themselves
a kingdom so as to send tributary
goods to China, Chandler says: It is
possible that Funan was thought to
be a major kingdom because the Chinese wanted it to be one and later because French scholars were eager to
find a predecessor for the highly centralized kingdom of Angkor, which developed in the ninth century."
One of the real achievements of
the so-called Funan era is said to have
been systematic irrigation. Buddhism
from India also flourished during this
time, and many of the Chinese sources
describe commodities of trade, local
custom and centralization. In the seventh and eight centuries AD, coastal
trading
states like
Fun an
dwindled
or changed
into settlements further inland,
w hi Ch
Chandler
says were
known in
the Cambodian
case by the
collective
t e r m
"Chenla".
The wealth
of these
kingdoms
came from
wet-rice
agriculture
and manpower mobilization,
and
not
subsistence agriculture or
trade.
Cambodia's great Angkorean age
is usually dated between AD802 and
1431, although these are not hard and
fast "beginning and end" pointers. The
word Angkor comes from the Sanskrit word nagara meaning town and
the state known today as Angkor,
which arose in north-west Cambodia
in the ninth century, had been the
homes of Khmer speakers for several
hundred years.
In the eighth century, Cambodia
was divided in two, suggests George
Coedes. Java had probably invaded
and annexed part of the territory. In
the dying years of the century, a prince
with distant links to a past Cambodian regime returned from Java and
proclaimed the independence of Cambodia from Java. He also forged the
cult of the god-king which was to be
the hallmark of Khmer civilization.
This great king, known as Jayavarman
II (802-850), installed himself over
time in four capitals north of the
Grand Lake Tonie Sap. After 48 years
of a rocky reign, during which time
he unified and pacified Cambodia,
Jayavarman II died near Rolous in 850.
He had paved the way for a line of
kings in the Angkor region for the next
600 years.
His son Jayavarman III (850-877)
and his nephew Indravarman (877889) remained at Rolous. Later,
Yasovarman, Indravarman' s son
moved the capital to the north-west'
calling it Y asodharapura and having th~
vast Baray Oriental basin dug in the
vicinity. King Jayavarman IV abandoned this site in 921 and returned to
Angkor. He built a new capital at Koh
Ker, distinguished by towering, decorative monuments. But in 944, Coedes
recounts,
his
successor

all accounts, they were the glue holding DSS together, yet caseloads were
high, morale was low and professional
development was not at the caliber it
should have been for an agency like
DSS. Thanks to the Governor and
the legislature, since FY'93 there has
been an increase of nearly 300 social
workers and about a dozen lawyers.
DSS spending in the social worker
account has increased from $54.2m
in FY 90 to a projected $84.4m in FY
98. I am pleased to report that for the
first time in the history of DSS, the
statewide average social caseload has
been below 18: 1 for the past six
months. This is a trend we hope to
continue. Our next goal is to see that
no individual worker has a caseload
higher than the standard. We think
we can achieve this within the cur-
rent staffing levels. This budget marks
the first time that I have not requested

Worker Safety ·
and-in-hand with caseload reduc
tion is the need to provide staff
with the safest work environment possible. We were all shocked and saddened to learn of the murder of Linda
Sylva, an investigator in our Cape office in September. Although her killer
has not been apprehended, and the
motive cannot be linked to DSS at this
time, her death has unleashed pent up
anxiety among staff about their safety
and prompted a renewed focus on
worker safety issues . DSS staff
works in the shadow of violence everyday. They go places some police

Governor Weld filed a $4.8 supplemental budget request in January for
various safety items for DSS. Such
items include bullet resistant glass in
reception areas, beepers , cell ular
phones worker safety training, telephones and other items. We hope you
will look favorab ly on this request as
soon as possible. Let's not wait until
another tragedy occurs. Many of
these items are one-time expenditure.
However, House One also included the

Rajendravarman consolidated Angkor
as the site of the royal court and it
remained the home of Khmer kings
from then on.
After the reign of Jayavarman V
(968-1001 ), the builder of Banteay Srei
and Takeo, the Cambodian kingdom
passed to a dynasty that was, almost
exclusively, of foreign blood. The
work of Coedes reveals these to be
Suryavarman I (1002-1050), a "conquering king from the valley of
Menam", UdayadityavarmanII (10501066), the builder of the Baphuon,;
and Harshavarman III. In the year
1080, Jayavarman VI, unrelated to
previous kings of the same name, installed himself with the aid of Brahman Divakara as a king of a new dynasty---one which was to survive until the 14 th century.
One of the undisputed great kings
of Cambodia was Suryavarman II,
ruler from 113-1150, who was responsible for the building of Angkor Wat
and whose image appears there on the
bas-reliefs. "His reign lasted 40 years
and was full of daring conquests,
which led for a time to annexation of
part of Champa. There followed a
period of fresh troubles during which
the Chams revenged themselves by
invading and destroying Angkor. They
were finally driven away by
Jayavarman VII, the last great king of
Cambodia, who was crowned in
1181, and who not only reconstructed
the capital but added an astonishing
number of buildings," Coedes writes
in his book Angkor.
Crowned in 1181, Jayavarman VII
devoted himself to the teaching of
Mahayana Buddhism- the form still
practiced in a great part of northern
Asia. But after his death, subsequent
Cambodian kings were threatened by
the Thais, who had established themselves in the Menam valley. This was
the beginning of the end of an era for
Cambodia. The Khmers' decline was
not rapid, however, and it was not until
the 15 th century that the court left
Angkor for Phnom Penh. The present
capital is near what some believe to
have been the ancient capital ofFunan,
and ofpre-Angkorean Cambodia.

�Khmer Traditional Music
Class at CMAA
F
or the last five months, the
Cambodian Mutual Assis
tance Association ( CMAA)
has had the fortune to begin focus-
ing intensively once again on our
youth issues, problems and successes
within our community. We are very
greatful for the constant support of
the Office of Refugees & Immigrants (ORI), especially in the youth
aspect. With the leadership of Mr.
ARN CHORN-POND as a youth
partner and coordinator for the
CMAA, the Youth Corps / Peer
Leadership Program has now began
to be very active again, and we are
very thankful !
T
he Youth
Corps/
Peer Leadership Program involves 15 to 20
Cambodian youths
who are currently in
their commitment, skills and willingness to volunteer to help their community. Peer Leaders are involved
in organizing, planning and educating their younger peers and
the community as a whole
about health issues, youth
issues, and other activities
including : Peer Counseling
and Environmental Project,
Pregnancy Prevention Educ a ti on and Conferences
Workshop Planning. Recently we has just began the
Cambodian Traditional Music Class for the 'at risk'
youths. The Peer Leaders are also
helping in organizing events like
fundraising parties for youth projects
and helping to plan the Summer
School for the CMAA in the hope to
keep the Cambodian youths busy,
having fun and become productive
citizens to their community. If you
like to be involved, please contact
Mr. ARN CHORN-POND at the
CMAA. Tel # is

cause our phones are so antiquated
that we lose a large number of calls
each day, but it is also a service issue
as teachers, therapists, doctors and
foster parents find it nearly impossible
to reach their social workers. Often
it is thought that DSS staff is unresponsive, when in fact there is no
good system for even receiving calls
or taking messages. The equipment
we have in most DSS offices is not
even made anymore. We have been
relegated to snapping up phones no
longer used by other state agencies
that have upgraded their systems in
order to augment our supply of
phones. We need to invest in something that sounds mundane, but is the
lifeblood of our work. Please support a new telephone system for DSS.
Professionalization of Staff
he work DSS social workers do
is one of the most difficult jobs in
the Commonwealth. All of the most
horrific societal issues from domestic violence and substance abuse to
chronic neglect and child abuse converge at DSS. It is essential that staff
have the most up-to-date training to
deal with these problems. In the past
year we have totally revamped the preservice training program for new social workers, implementing a competency based training program. This
pre-service program will form the
basis for licensing all DSS social
workers in the future as required by
the Legislature.

�NEW HOSPITAL PROVIDES FREE CARE
IN PHNOM PENH
Sihanouk Hospital Center for HOPE opened on December 10, 1996 in Phnom
Penh to provide free medical care for the people regardless of race, class, or financial
situation.
The hospital is already seeing 300 outpatients a day and is soon to begin 24 hour
emergency services.
We need your support and financial assistance to begin inpatient and surgical care
by mid-1997. Those in Cambodian who have suffered so much and still so desperately
lack the medical care they need will benefit directly from your donation.
An international staff of doctors, nurses and technicians have been assembled by
HOPE worldwide. The plan of hiring and training 25 Cambodian physicians and 200
other hospital staff has begun.
Through a number of corporate and private donors the construction of the hospital
has been completed and outpatients are being served. HOPE worldwide will provide the
administrative experience to run this landmark training facility and needs $1.5 million
annually to fund on-going hospital expenses to allow equal access to health care for all
Cambodians.
HOPE worldwide is a 50l(c)(3) non-profit and non-governmental organization in
special consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.
Tax deductible donations should be made to HOPE worldwide - Cambodia
Hospital, at 148 E. Lancaster Avenue, Wayne, PA 19087 USA phone 610/254-8800.
If you can be of any assistance to the Sihanouk Hospital Center of HOPE or would like
further information please complete the form below and sent to the address below.

cation program for social workers
who wish to obtain their MSW; and
the field placement program for all
students doing internships at DSS.
T
his is a very exciting that will en
hance the training we will be able
to do, increase the number of social
workers with advanced degrees and
allow us to receive federal reimbursement for the project. Although this
program is federally reimbursable, we
need the commitment from the Legislature to move forward. In addition
to the work we are doing with Salem
State, I have convened a task force to
work with the schools of social work
throughout the state to strengthen the
relationship between DSS and the
schools, thereby improving the job
readiness of our clinical staff. It is
expected that this work can also help
us undertake additional research to
better understand how we can assist
families. This task force, chaired by
Loretta Kowal, will provide me with
great insight into how we can enhance
collaboration with the public and private institutions that prepare staff for
this line of work.
FamilyNet
amilyNet, our major technology
initiative will completely revolutionize the way we do our work and
allow workers to spend more time
with families as opposed to pads, pencils and desks. DSS has not upgraded
from its monster mainframe system
that was developed in the early 80's.
Thanks to Rep. Angelo Scaccia and
Speaker Finneran, we are well on our
way to implementing a new computer
system that capitalizes on 75 percent
funding from the federal government
for a limited period of time.
F
P
art of the federal Statewide Auto
mated Child Welfare Information
System, FamilyNet will replace case
records stored in green three ring.
binders with an online, interactive system. It will streamline casework, dra-
matically reduce paperwork and speed
efficiency of document transmittal
between offices. The system will help
match waiting children with prospective foster and adoptive parents as
well. Part of the design also includes
interfaces with other state agencies,
which will result in better service to
our families. For example, we will be
able to link up with Medicaid's computer system to find out if a child is
already enrolled in an HMO and who
is his primary physician. This project,
in development since 1994, is set to
become operational in August. It is
one of the most exciting technological advances in state government today. This project has been in large
part funded through a federal match
program. the Governor's House One
includes $3 .21 million to operationalize
FamilyNet. This funding is critical to
our ability to keep the system going
once the federal match expires. The
federal dollars support development
but not ongoing costs of running the
system.

he Department of Social Services '
provides services to families and
children living in Massachusetts. The
mission at DSS is to support and
strengthen families, an to keep families
together whenever possible. The Department offers a fu ll range of services
which include counseling, day care, and
parent aides . DSS is also the agency
mandated to respond to reports of child
abuse and neglect. When families can
not provide the necessary care and protection for their own children, the Department intervenes to ensure children 's
safety.

"
hen children need to be placed
outside of their families home, this
is when foster care is utilized. DSS first
attempts to place children with family
members, when none are available or appropriate, we than place children infoster homes. DSS does try to place children in their own ethnic background, but
this is not always possible because of
the shortage of homes we have available . DSS also tries to keep sibling
groups together, and we do try to avoid
making children change school districts.
All of these factors are considered when
trying to find a foster home . None of
these factors are possible sometimes because of the shortage of foster homes.
W
e are appealing to the Greater
Lowell community in trying to
open new foster homes. The more foster homes we can have available, the
better chance we will have as an agency
to place children in appropriate foster
home setting. If you want more information on how to become a foster parent
please contact:
Susan Tucke or Michael Ben
Ho @ 452-8970. The Lowell
DSS office is located at 33 E.
Marrimack St. This office services Lowell and the seven surrounding communities.

�age of foster homes we have. And
children are places in a good foster
home, which in fact didn't allow us
to meet any of the above factors.
he Department of Social Ser
vices provides services to families and children. The mission at DSS
is to support and strengthen families,
keeping families together whenever
possible. DSS provides a full range
of family support services, including
counseling, day care, and parent
aides. When families can not provide the necessary care and protection for their own children, DSS intervenes to ensure children's safety.

intervenes in order to protect the
child. If a child needs to leave their
families home, DSS will first attempt

is a daily occurrence in our office. If you were to walk through
our office lobby on any given day you
might see the older children sitting
there. Then you might wonder why
they have all sorts of bags and luggage surrounding them. These are
the teenagers waiting to be placed.
These teenagers might sit all day
wondering where they will sleep that
night. They might have just had a
tough time in court, may be the court
ordered them into a foster home,
they have no idea where they will
end up. An even tougher situation is
that we might only be able to get them
a foster home for one night on an
emergency basis. This means they

�Cambodian Women
Speak: an interview
with Sara Im and
Chantha Bin.
Cath pierSath and Joachim
Nickerson
C ara Im,
Ul rather
,_ res e rv ed
and soft
spoken but
articulate
woman,
came out of
the ThaiCambodian
border Khao-I-Dang Refugee
Camp. She arrived in the United
States September 1981. She initially lived in Connecticut and
moved to Lowell after a few years
there. She came to the U.S. by herself, and later brought her mother
and three brothers to this country.
She has a college degree in Mathematics and Business Management.
Now, she is working with the Cambodian American League ofLowell
(CALL) as its program coordinator. The C.A.L.L. is an organization that focuses on economic development in the Southeast Asian
community in Lowell. They provide
small business training, help people
understand how to acquire loans to
achieve their dream of buying a
home and become literate in the
business world.
Sara is one Cambodian women
who has achieved success. When
asked to define "success" she spoke
of having a balance in various areas
oflife. This includes·a family, a stable
job for financial security and a moral
and spiritual responsibility towards
the community in which you live. To
achieve success, she also adds, one
has to be very self-detem1ined and
have a desire to learn and grow.
One must want to make a difference not only in one's own life, but
in the lives of other people and be
able to see oneself as a contributing
memberofsociety. Importantly, one
must do what one loves in order to
achieve a certain self-sufficiency and
satisfaction.
In society, some social, economic and political issues are unique
only to women. They have to balance family and work and also their
roles in society. A lot of the issues
are difficult, and Sara has identified
several relating to her own life. Being a woman and an immigrant in
this country has expanded her horizons and perspective, but not without struggles. She had to deal with
cultural and language barriers, which
many Cambodian women are still
struggling with today. Many Cambodian women in America are not
as integrated into the mainstream
American culture as Sara has. A lot
ofthe Cambodian women in Lowell
are experiencing post traumatic
stress from the war and the Khmer
Rouge years. They have not recuperated like Sara and thus it is
harder for them to provide their children with any positive wisdom to
guide them. Therefore, it is more
difficult for them to identify and
achieve their own personal goals.
Although Sara is fluent in English
and Khmer, she still feels that it is
more challenging to realize her goals
than it would for a native English
speaker.
Sara has always been a very
good role model for young women.
Her conm1itrnent to the community
and her long tem1 involvement demonstrate her ability to face challenges. Every year she assists
CALL in organizing a beauty pageant which focuses on helping young
women build self-esteem and establish roots and cultural identity. It
helps young women identify and
realize personal goals in addition to
strengthening the family.
Sara is also participating in the
Lowell Career Beginning Planning
Team to provide youth with mentors who could assist them in clarifying their future career and goals.
When asked what advice she would
give to young women, she said they
should identify a role model or mentor who they like, and follow his or
her example in order to achieve their
own success. Success includes the
motivation to learn, grow and experience new challenges.
Sara is always looking for learning opportunities. Recently, she
completed an Economic Development Leadership Training provided
by CIRCLE (Center for Immigrant,
Refugee Community Leadership
Empowerment).
When asked, with her knowledge and skill, if she wants to go
back to Can1bodia to help, she said
that she doesn't have enough
strength to go there and work.
However, she will visit family. Her
mission is to help people here in the
United States since there is a great
need especially among the Cambodian people. "Cambodians abroad
must be strong and unified if they
want to help rebuild Cambodia from
its war torn history," she said.
While a lot of Cambodian men
occupy themselves with the politics
of Cambodia, Sara keeps herself

info1rned without getting involved in
the political quagmire. She is an
Ame1
ican citizen, and she is well infom1ed about pol itical issues both
in America and in Cambodia. She
votes in every election.
Sara reflected on the role older
Cambodian women play. She
thinks of her mother who had little
education, but who helped her become strong and detem1ined as an
individual. Her mother has been a
positive role model by being a good
example. Sara appreciates her
mother's wisdom and simplicity in
her ways of resolving life's day to
day problems. Her mother draws
thedailywisdom of life fromherown
experience. In many ways, Sara
appreciates the older people because of their life experiences.
"Older people - a lot of them are
wise," she said.
Sara
talked
about
intergenerational relationships. She
feels that teenagers who grow up in
America have a harder time dealing
with cross-cultural issues. They
have to figure out where they belong and where they are in American society. " It is very hard for them
to balance two different cultures."
The yow1ger generation is the future
of the Cambodian American community. The obstacles they are facing now don't necessarily weaken
them, but probably will strengthen
them since they have gone through
the struggles and appreciate what
they have been through. " I have to
keep reminding myself all the time
about where I came from and how
1survived the Khmer Rouge."
As adults, we have to be positive role models and provide them
with guidance and support to face
the challenges they deal with in li fe
and prepare·them for the future.
One does not have to have a college degree to be a posi ti ve role
model. "My mother never had a
college education, but she teaches
me ways to save money, life management skills and provides me with
practical solutions to solve confhcts."
The Cambodian community in
Lowell has suffered a great deal
from a bad reputation due to gang
violence and intergenerational conflicts which evolves from a lack of
basic skills to identify and resolve
issues. "This is why we need to
work extra, extra hard to recuperate from this gang image."
Sara, in her integrity, looks at life
in a practical sense just as her
mother taught her. This includes
basic skills to deal with day to day
living and problem solving. As a
positive role model, this is what she
would like to give to other young
women.
Chantha Bin and Her
Journey
t the
age
of nine,
Chantha
Bin was
separated
from her
family by
theKhmer
Rou ge
and put
into
a
chi ldren's
camp. The war created many orphans due to land mines , starvation'
relocation and mass killing. When
A
the Vietnamese occupied Cambodia in 1979 she fl ed with other
people and was befri ended by an
old lady who she called "grandmother". They both became very
i11 and were in comas and the old
woman's fanlily dug two graves. At
this point she had a drean1 of a man
in white who said there is room for
only one. They had to make the
choice as to which one stayed. The
old woman had trouble making a
decision and the man suggested that
she go because she was old and had
lived her life whereas Chantha was
young and had a lot of years ahead
of her. She awoke, the old woman
had been buried and the fan1ily was
ready to put Chantha in the grave
as well.
Chantha came to the United
States in 1982 as an unaccompanied minor and lived in Amherst
MA with American foster parents.
Cambodian and other unaccomparued refugee minors were sponsored
by Lutheran Child and Fan1ily Services who recruited foster homes.
She had two years of education in a
refugee camp, Sakeo I and II, before coming to Am erica. Her foster father was a professor at the
University of Massachusetts,
Amherst; her foster mother was a
secretary. When asked why she
had succeeded when others hadn't,
she said that she had support from
other nunors who were mostly male
but who supported and encouraged
her and did not see her as a sex
obj ect. She lived in a very disciplined environment with her foster
parents which was similar to how
Can1bodian parents raise their children. She finished high school and
went to college. While in college

she began to experience post-traumatic stress disorder syndrome and
lost a great deal ofweight; she was
only 79 pounds. Her foster mother
took her to various doctors who
were unable to diagnose the problem. She failed college and was
expelled because her grade point
average fell.
At this point Chantha got a job
helping special needs children, and
it turned her life around. She began
to work with a child who she calls
Benjamin who had cerebral palsy,
and he didn't like to be touched or
fed. This boy was unable to feed
himselfand do other basic skills such
as going to the bathroom. He was
unable to take care of himself and
through working with Benjamin and
others, she began to look at her own
life. She realized that she had abilities which these children didn't and
she.began to ask herself why she
was so sad. She began to see her
abilities in a positive way. She became proactive, and one day her
relationship with this boy changed
her life. She decided to hug him
and tell him that she was there for
him. Initially she communicated with
him by singing. It took time, but he
did come around and began to feed
himselfand allowed her to become
emotionally close to him.
Chantha was transformed by the
experience of Benjamin and was
able to go back to college and
graduate with a degree in early childhood development. She had to get
beyond her own suffering to reach
somebody else and then both
people grow.
Two years ago she went back
to Cambodia where she met her
biological parents after almost

Culture and Cambodian Youth
Chath pierSath
he hip hop culture, which is
often viewed as black culture,
has found its way to the
hearts of Cambodian youth. In raps,
these Cambodian youth, gangsta
wannabes are finding a new sense
of self in black street life - as portrayed in rap music. Rap is the sermon of the street and youth against
conventionality and cultural restriction.
U
Beyond the boundaries and restrictions of their own culture, Cambodian youth who grow up in
America are moving fluidly between
other cultures, borrowing from whoever they can relate to. Often times,
what they borrow is seldom viewed
as something good. What they do
and express in their lifestyle, a lot of
the time, raise eye brows and questions about who they are and what
they are all about. Parents, in particular, are scared and skeptical about
the whole thing, when they hear their
c hildren listen to rap music and see
them wearing baggy clothes. Some
boys even pierced their cars, which
their fathe rs would never do since
gender roles are ti g htl y defined
within their cultural context. Here,
in America, anything goes. Everybody is free to do whatever he or
she wishes. Indi vidual freedom is
loudly being expressed and valued.
Cambodian parents who are less
integrated into the American cultural
mainstream arc lost. Some can' t understand why their children have chosen to listen to this obnoxious. loud
and in-your face form o f music and
wear such unattrac tiv e baggy
clothes, hang out on the street and
dance as though they are pointing fingers at each other, trying to pick a
fight. What they are doing is actually their way of rebelling against
their parents and any notion of cultural establishment. The in-your face
lyrics that they gyrate to give them
an identity, a way of relating to the
world and their peers. These in-your
face lyrics often describe and sometimes glorify violence, misogyny, fast
living, drinking and drugging. Some
lyrics are just senseless, repetition of
screams and " I do you good baby,"
most of which you don' t understand.
Parents are not so much to blame
for all of this. MTV and other medians of cultural infiltration and media
are constantly telling these youth how
to behave, act and dress. Wearing a
baseball cap sideways is cool and it
signifies a certain sign of group identi ty. Baggy jeans and cloddy athletic shoes are trendy. The music
video stars are wearing them. The
girls soaked their lips mud red. They
project their figures by wearing bell
bottom pants and tight shirts brought
back from the 60s. They dance slow
dances with boys before they even
married. Young girls as young as
twelve are learning the arts of flirting.
Some parents are overwhelmed,
fearful and afraid of what their children are turning into. They think their
children are cultural monsters who
are experiencing some cultural difficulties, trying to figure out where they
belong, what they believe and why
they are put on this earth, and for
what purpose. Maybe they' re just
expressing the spirit of being young
in this free for all nation, America.
One night, at a non-smoking and
non-alcohol fundraising party that the
CMAA peer leaders put on at Roger
School, I saw several young boys as
young as twelve smoking Marlboro
cigarettes. The::-e were a lot of them
there. They paid five dollars to get
in. Those who smoked weren't allowed to take their cigarettes and
lighters in . At the beginning, a few
danced, and even toward the end,
only half of those who were there
danced. The rest sat and watched.
That was their night out of the house.
Those who danced pumped their
arn1s front to back. Their legs stayed
in rhythm, propelling their short wiry
frame forward almost airborne. This
boy and his gang danced as if they
were swimming through time. Easy.
Smooth. Cool. Some of them wore
a bandanna over the ir heads. A
young man had a nose ring and one
of his pant legs rolled up w hich
docsn ' t make sense to me. T hey
looked nothing like the innocent,
c harming, Angkorian faced Khmer
children I know, and if! was in their
parents ' shoes, I would probably be
very shocked to discover what I had
seen. At the same time, how everyone can not j udge by external appearances because there can be
gentle spirits beneath the facade. I
understand them because I also grew
up in this country and realize the issue of trying to balance two cultures
is harder for these young people.

�American Tobacco Companies Are Cashing In On
Chath pierSat/,
Cambodia's Poor
n Cambodia, there are two
landmines for every child and
adult. The case of ITTV/ AIDS
is on the rise. The 70% forest covered land has been reduced to 40%
in just three years. Corruption is a
way oflife among government officials. With an increase in bars and
nightclubs comes an increase in HIV/
AIDS cases, alcoholism and domestic violence. To top this, there's the
problem of smoking and American
Tobacco Companies cashing in on
Cambodia's poor.
Newport, Camel and Marlboro
cigarettes, which are most favored
by young people in the United States,
are also very popular among Cambodian youth in Cambodia because
they come from America. Marlboro
is widely advertised. Groups of
Marlboro girls can be seen all over
the city streets dressed in Marlboro
colors, red and white, giving men free
cigarettes.
Most ofthese girls are high school
age students. There are not many
jobs for young girls in Cambodia.
Beside prostitution, they sell beers
and cigarettes and work long hours
in restaurants for a very low wage.
"Here,tryone," Iwasonceurged
by a girl. "It's Marlboro smooth,
U
freshest taste, from America."
There are hundreds of foreign
cigarettes in Cambodia. One cannot
list them all. There's one brand,
"Angkor," which one would think is
an indigenous product, but on the label, it says that the tobacco is from
the United States of America.
Each company has its own sales
pitch. However, everyone of them
uses young girls to sell their product.
They dress in the colors on the cigarette pack. The beer companies
make them wear uniforms that represent the country where the beers
come from. Some are dressed like
they were in a beauty pageant, wearing evening gowns. They wear
sashes such as "Miss Tiger Beer"
or "Miss Marlboro."
Cigarette brands like Lucky
Strike, Marlboro, Newport, 555 and
the French version of Alan Delon
take over the airwaves and television ads. They pay beautiful actors
to endorse it. "It's smooth and
fresh," says one actor as he takes in
the smoke and blows it back out of
his nostrils as though he's Humphrey
Bogart (who by the way died of cancer).
In the United States, while
Americans are trying to kick their

a
CMAA peer leaders' fundraising
party one Saturday night, out of the
40 or 50 young men who smoked, all
smoked Marlboro, a cigarette with a
very high content of carcinogen and
chemicals to hook you up.
"According to a recent international report, smoking kills 3 million
people every year, and the annual toll
could reach IO million by 2020. So
far, most of tobacco's victims have
been men in developing countries, but
now, the report says, more women
in the West and men in developing
countries have begun to smoke.
However, while Westerners struggle
to kick the habit, tobacco companies
are casting about for - and finding
- new groups of people ready and
willing to light up" (from the World
Press Review, November, 1994,
"Smoking Wars").
In Cambodia alone, there's no
way of telling how many people
would die of lung or heart disease
and cancer caused by smoking.
Most men don't live that long. The
average life expectancy is between
45 and 50 years, and according to a
report by the World Health Magazine in 1995, chronic diseases like
lung cancer and heart disease are
generally uncommon because relatively few people survive to those
ages when such diseases become
manifest. In Cambodia, health data
and figures showing the patterns of
tobacco use are poor and unreliable.
Yet smoking is particularly risky in
Cambodia where populations are
anemic because it reduces their
blood's oxygen - carrying ability.
Very poor people often use tobacco

�West, are turning toward new markets in Cambodia and other Southeast Asian countries. In Laos, during the water festival's boat race, the
winner takes Marlboro home:
Marlboro money, Marlboro cap and
T-shirt, _even Marlboro trophy.
Marlboro billboards in Cambodia are
very visible in every social and traditional event. The handsome, good
old American cowboy on the billboard is seen urging people to smoke.
What people don't know is that the
man in the picture with a cigarette in
his mouth died oflung cancer. With
controls over nicotine and tar content, health warnings, and advertising a lot less stringent in Cambodia,
Marlboro is free to sell and enlarge
its billboards.
For a dollar (2500 riels), any Cambodian can purchase a pack of

as an appetite suppressant - a
cheap and accessible means of
warding off hunger pangs. The men
who drive cyclo and motortaxis, and
street children especially, use cigarette as well as alcohol to suppress
their appetite.
A country like Cambodia does not
have the financial ability to educate
people about the danger of smoking.
While health education messages
against smoking are widely disseminated in developed countries, they are
nowhere to be found in Cambodia.
Television, radio and newspaper outreach are impossible since they have
all been taken over by tobacco companies who have money to pay for
airtime.
The international tobacco companies, fearful ofdeclining profits in the
Marlboro, Camel or 555 and a variety of other brands of international
and local tobacco addictives. There
are hundreds of them, those tobacco
companies who have money are the
most prominent. Like Marlboro, it
can afford to pay young female crusaders to go around in their colors to
advocate its smooth, American cigarette taste.
In Cambodia close to 90% of
men smoke, and it's a socially accepted behavior while cigarette companies exploit this practice to their
own material benefit. By destroying
the health and well being of Cambodian males, tobacco companies continue to become wealthy. This is happening all over the world with cigarette companies capitalizing on vulnerable populations.

conference hall to hold large conferences or conventions as well as
to do training workshops. Some
had asked for a kitchen and a banquet room to be built, which can
also be rented out to host wedding
parties or special social and cultural
as well as fundraising events. Others are looking to expand daycare,
classroom sizes, have a dance studio for the children to learn and practice their cultural and traditional
music, dances and theater. The
80,000 square feet Courier building is even big enough for a religious
retreat center where people can get
lessons on meditation, learn about
Buddhism, hold conferences on
peace and non-violence or any
other subject ofinterest. It can even
be a place to congregate and do religious ceremonies on New Year celebration or Pchurn Ben (Ancestors
Day}. One staff thought about a
movie theater that can also be used
for concert, beauty pageant and
other cultural and artistic performances. A youth coordinator wants
a gym for recreational and sports
activities for young people after
school, as well as, for old people to
do some recreational exercises that
will enable them to live longer and
healthier lives. An English as a Second Language teacher dreams of
having a language lab built into her
classroom. These classrooms are
also to be used on weekends to
teach Khmer language and give
adults, through the Cambodian
Voter League, weekend citizen
classes necessary for Cambodians
who want to become American citizens. Other staff thought about a
business center to house commercial services like dental and medical

dream is to build collaborations and
the kind of intercultural exchanges
that will be beneficial to all communities across racial and ethnic
lines. This Center can be a way for
Cambodians to learn about other
people and the political and social
system of their new home. It can
be a channel that attracts human
and financial resources to carry out
various community development
projects here in Lowell and in Cambodia. People outside the community can also use the Center as a
resource for their work. The exchange will be very beneficial to all
who are involved in our endeavor
to serve our community at large. To
find out how you can support this
project, please call Samkhann
Khoeun at CMAA 508-454-4286.

daycare? Yes, during this
past summer New England
Alive brought baby wild animals
which had been injured and natured
back to good health, to Komar
Daycare. This event took place on
June 20, 1996. Children and staff
were able to see these very animal
close up and touch them. While
some staff approached the snakes
with apprehension, others were
quite comfortable wrapping them
around their necks. The furry and
feathered specimens were more
comfortably approached by all.
Who could resist baby goats and
rabbits? A baby falcon and chicks
complete the cute category. Sun
and box turtles contributed to the
reptile representation.
It was exciting to have such an
interactive experience as Komar
Daycare teaches social skills and
academic readiness while building
self-esteem. When learning is
concrete and interesting, there is a

he October 20th CMAA Election, held from
10:00 to 12:00, was a success though the rain
was pouring and a sabotage attempt was
made. Mr. Sarnkhann Khoeun, Executive Director of
the CMAA, came to the office early that morning to
find both front and back doors were bolted and nailed
shut from the outside. Apparently, somebody did not
want the election to take place. Nevertheless, cars
filled the street and the parking lot in front of the
CMAA. More than three hundred Cambodians,
which included many elders, showed up to cast their
vote.
One man, who wished not to be named, said
that the reason why he got up this early was because
he didn' t want to see CMAA destroyed. Not long ago
Mr. Sarnkhann Khoeun was on the verge of being fired
by the former board, and he was put out of work for a
month. This was not due to any wrong doing, but
because of personality clashes he had with a few of
the board members. This is not uncommon, since
people have different self-interests, and sometimes
political affiliations and foggy notions of power can put
them at odds with each other. When people bring their
personal agendas to the table often times such situation
will occur.
As a result, the work that was very beneficial
to the community was slowed down. The disunity,
power struggle and the conflict of interest almost
forced the CMAA out of the nonprofit business. Many
would hope that this kind of thing would not happen
again, and with the newly elected board, community
members are hoping for better results.
This newly elected board, which consists of
three women and ten men (three are former board
members), vowed to work together under one common
vision to bring productivity, positive results, organizational growth, maturity, money and needed human
resources and services which will help members of the
Cambodian community. This newly elected board has
members of diverse educational backgrounds and
experiences. The CMAA is happy to welcome and
have them. They are listed as followed:

�Anti-Immigrant Mood
Moves Asians to
Organize
By STEVEN A. HOLMES
LOS ANGELES -- Marty Shih is
the kind of person who has earned
Asian-Americans the widespread
characterization as the model
minority. Born in Taiwan, he
arrived in the United States in 1978
with $500 to his name and began
selling flowers on downtown
streets here. Eighteen years later,
through grit, hard work and
ingenuity, he has built his company,
The Asian Business Connection,
into a telemarketing giant that in
1994 sold $40 million in products to
Asian-Americans. But Mr. Shih ' s
rag-to-riches story took an unusual
path last month when he established the Asian American Association to, among other things,
campaign against legislation that
would drastically reduce the levels
oflegal immigration, an issue that
has galvanized Asian-Americans
like no other in recent times. The
not-for-profit association 's executive director, Qingsong Zhang, a
Chinese immigrant said 'we became concerned about what was
going on in Washington, D .C . We
all believe that if these bills become
law, there will be a negative
impact on the Asian community:·
The establishment of the association is an example of the growing
political activity on the part of
Asian-Americans in response to
anti-immigrant sentiment. As an
issue, immigration strikes particular
chords among Asian-Americans,
and proposals to scale it back
produce particular anxieties.
Though people of Asian descent
are only 3.7 percent of the American population, Asians made up
36.6 percent of immigrants to the
United States citizens allowed to
enter the country as permanent
residents.

n exciting event took place
in the Young Parents
Program (YPP) when Luz
Cruz, a 19 year old student voted for
the first time. This year voter turnout
among Hispanics was the highest of
any other year and Luz was proud
that she participated as one of those
voices.
She is from Puerto Rico and as a
child she remembers her mother voting and atthat time she would ask her
mother if she could also vote. There
is a history ofperforming one's civic
duty in her family with her mother
setting a good example.
Luz says that it is easy to register
to vote. Prior to this year' s election
some people were in her neighborhood doing voter registration. All she
had to do was give them her name,
address and social security number.
Later a letter arrived in the mail
informing her where to go to vote.
As a young mother going to school
and on the transitional assistance
program she realizes how important
it is to get out there to vote. The
political theme this year has been
veryanti-immigrant, with welfare and
other cuts to social programs, voting
for her was a way to be heard.
Luz who has two daughters feels
that the U.S. gives safer refuge for
her and her children compared to
living in Puerto Rico. Here is this
country she appreciates the many
educational andjob opportunities. She
started the YPP hoping to finish her
GED in order to find a good job or
continue her education. Now she is
near completion and waiting to hear
about this one job. If she doesn't get
the job she will continue on to college.
YPP has about twenty students

�Report by Joachim Nickerson
Program Manager
T
hree years ago the Massachusetts Cultural
Council approved a grant to the CMAA to
teach children with and without disabilities
Cambodian classical and folk dance. Bunrith Sath, a
caseworker for the Monorom program was instrumental in designing the project and Joachim Nickerson
wrote the grant proposal. Rany Him was recruited as
dance instructor.
We named the group, The Friendship Dance
Troupe. It has been a successful project which has
continued with funding from the Lowell Cultural
Council.
The dance troupe has performed publicly at various
events and in local churches as well as for CMAA
staff. It is anticipated that they will perform in march
1997, at the national conference of the National which
Association for Asian and Pacific American Education
will be taking place in Boston. This will be an excellent
opportunity for Asian American/Pacific American
educators to see first hand how children with disabilities can realize their potential.
It is truly satisfying and rewarding to observe these
children develop and refine dance movements. It
builds self-esteem and pride in the Khmer culture for
both the students with and without disabilities. Another
important factor is that it fosters interest in learning and
helps maintain a motivation in school and on-going
knowledge. Already it has been observed that some of
the children who were having difficulty maintaining
boundaries in school are greatly improved, their
attention span has increased as well. They learn selfdiscipline in dance instruction which carries over to
other areas of their lives as they realize that they have
accomplished new skills. Both teachers and caseworkers see improved behavior and a more focused
involvement in various subject areas.
Bunrith reports great change in these children and
one has only to observe the faces of these young
people and their more developed interactive skills to
know that self-esteem can be built through the arts.
While artistic creativity is often overlooked in favor of
math and science these children show that creativity is
as important in developing an integrated person.
Arts are important in changing the attitude of
children, and most children who participate in extra
curricular activities are more likely to do well in school.
More after school artistic programs like this should be
developed and the initial funding from the Mass
Cultural Council was a significant contribution. The
children themselves certainly can testify to the importance and benefit of this program.

aged, slightly bald headed man who
answers the phone. I called him
"Lok Crew", which means
"Teacher" in Khmer. His name is
Mr. Savy Suth, who was a former
high school teacher of math and
natural science before the Khmer
Rouge occupation of Cambodia in
1975. During the Khmer Rouge,
thousands of educated people, like
him, were murdered. For Lok
Crew, however, knowledge saved
him. The Khmer Rouge needed
him to gather herbs and roots used
as medicine to care for the sick.
They needed him to look after the
children and to help them make
banners and propaganda slogans to
propagate Maoist agrarian collectivization. Most older people in his
village didn 'tthinkhe would live.
They suspected that sooner or
later, the Khmer Rouge would kill
him too. Today,heislivingin
Lawrence, working at the CMAA,
answering phone. When you call
the CMAA, you will hear his soft,
patient Khmer-English voice,
"Hello, this is CMAA. May I help
you?" This is a welcoming voice,
which is not only good for answering phone, but also to bring your
problems to as well.
A year ago, he started
working for the CMAA as a
volunteer. Now, he is part time
staff doing Administrative Assistance. He also acts as a counselor
and a case worker. Cambodians,
especially single mothers, come to
him for assistance and moral
guidance. He listens to them and
shares with them their pain and
struggle. He sympathizes with
them and tries to help them as best
as he can. Most of the time,
people who come to him just want
somebody to listen to them. Some
of the women, whose husbands left
them for other women, came to
him in tears. They tell him about
the problems they have in trying to
raise two or four children by
themselves. They don ' t know
enough English to do things on their
own. They can't read and write
their own language. Their children
don't understand them because
their children don't speak enough
Khmer. They get very afraid and
overwhelmed by everything around
them. The social, economic and
political system here is very
complex. When the welfare
department asks them to fill out
papers, they can't do it themselves.
Sometimes the welfare people
scream at them and even call them
Left: Savy Suth
names. They feel degraded, but
there ' s little they can do. They
come to the CMAA, to Lok Crew,
hoping for a sense of consolation.
They tell him that their boys might
be in a gang. They don't like the
way their boys dress. Some of
them dye their hair, pierce their
ears, wear loose pants and listen to
rap, gangster music. They don't
know what to do. They don't
understand the youth culture, and
they feel so alienated from the lives
of their children.
"I think that I'm going crazy,"
one woman told him. "I want my
children to get an education so they
won't be in the dark like me, but
they don't seem very interested in
school. What's going on?"
The question has no simple
answer. As a former teacher, Lok
Crew is asking the same question.
There' s a big difference between
the Cambodian children here and

Dear Community,
00
y name is Arn Chom
Pond and I am a
recently hired youth
coordinator at the CMAA Youth
Corps: Peer Leadership Program.
This program is funded by MORI
(Massachusetts Office for Refugees and Immigrants).
I am very pleased to have the
opportunity to work with young
people. As we all may know, there
are many issues and problems
facing our young people. As
parents, most of you fear that your
children may be caught in gang
involvement and violence. Some of
you think that your children are
safe at school and that they are
learning the necessary knowledge
to prepare their lives for the future.
However, I am sorry to tell some
of you that your children may be
hanging out on the street with
peers who may push or pressure
them to commit crimes or even
acts of violence against their fellow
students.
The problems are vast and
complex. Nobody is to blame.
However, we need to work
together to love and encourage our
children more. We need to let
them know how important education is to them by showing and
demonstrating good examples and
human values. We need to work
together to come up with noninformal methods of education that
will build self-esteem, sensitivity
and strong character in our children.
I need your help and support.
As a coordinator of the youth
program at CMAA, I am now
offering our young people two or
three after school programs.

those in Cambodia, but it wouldn 't
be fair to compare them either.
Here, the children have their own
struggles and peer pressures to
deal with. They want to fit in, and
a lot of them have a hard time
balancing between two different
cultures. Most of these children
just want their parents to trust them
and give them room to breathe.
They want praise and encouragement and some kind of validation
that they are valued. They want
their parents to listen to what they
have to say, to trust and believe in
them.
"Children, especially when they
are young, need a lot of encouragement and love, " said Lok Crew.
Most Cambodian parents are not
short of love. However, the
process they use to communicate
that love can sometimes be misunderstood by their children. Some
parents lecture their children as a
way of showing love. When they
do that, they come across as being
too controlling and forceful. Most
Cambodian children who grow up
in this country can't live up to the
traditional values and beliefs of
their parents. Any restriction
forced upon them will cause them
to rebel and run away. This is
especially hard on single mothers,
who often, don't know much about
the kind oflife their children lead
outside their home. They feel that
they are loosing any sense of
control over the destiny of their
children. Their children know the
system better. They speak English. Thus, mothers often have to
depend on their children for their
own survival.
Lok Crew, who came to the
United States in 1992, feels that he
has it easier than most Cambodian
parents. His wife is an educated
housewife, who by choice, chooses
to stay home and care for their two
daughters. The oldest daughter is
ten years old, and she is already
excelling academically beyond
statewide expectation. She was
one of the 45 spelling bee champions in the state of Massachusetts,
and she' s already studying a
he says, which is different from
most Cambodians who often view
age as a barrier to learning.
Lok Crew is trying to change
this general view by encouraging
parents who he comes in contact
with to participate in the CMAA's
adult literacy
program. The
program, which is
run by Mr. Pahim
Kay, teaches
illiterate Cambodian
adults how to read
and write Khmer
so that they can
become better
examples as
parents.

ecently, the incidence of
AIDS cases in Cambodia is
on the rise. As more HIV
testing is being done, statistics
become scarier by the day. Could
AIDS be the second genocide?
The Cambodian people have gone
through enough already. They
have gone through hell in the
twenty year history of war and
massive violence. Cambodia does
not need AIDS on top of it. The
reality is, however, AIDS is
already in the blood stream of
some people. I can testify to it
because a brother of mine died
from it seven months ago. I
witnessed the suffering and the
fear in his eyes. It was a long,
agonizing death, and I certainly
don't want to see any more
Cambodians go through it. However, due to the lack of education
and the belief that AIDS is still a
foreign disease make all Cambodians vulnerable.
Conservative estimates suggest
that by the end of the decade, the
AIDS virus will infect more than
one million Asians each year, more
than in the rest of the world
combined, according to Philip
Shenon in a Special Report to the
New York Times.
In Cambodia, some have feared
that AIDS will kill more people
than the Khmer Rouge time. With
an increase in bars, nightclubs and
brothels in major cities, AIDS is
likely to increase, and would
probably become a weapon of
another genocide if increased
awareness does not take place, in
particular in provincial areas.
Reaskmey Kongea, reporter for
the Cambodia Times, wrote in the

September 30 - October 6, 1996
that the Incidence of HIV and
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is on the rise in
Kratie Province, with an estimated
38.5 percent of the people in that
area afflicted by the virus. He
went on to say that, according to
the deputy director of the National
AIDS Prevention Committee, Dr.
Kiev Sokha, of 401 people who
were tested for the AIDS causing
HIV virus 38.5 percent tested
positive.
Of the 38.5 percent, 28.5
percent were commercial sex
workers, 3. 7 percent were from
the police force and four percent
were pregnant women.
Kiev Sokha said that the statistics were released by the Provincial National AIDS Program during
its eight-month operation in Kratie
which began at the beginning of
1996.
Kratie has a population of
245 ,072, of which 101 are prostitutes. The province has 30 brothels and two night clubs.
Kiev Sokha said aid workers
have been trying to inculcate
awareness among the provincial
peopie, especially those in the
remote areas on the AIDS problem.
He explained that the reason for
the increase in the incidence of
HIV was due largely to the
ignorance on the subject, especially
how it is spread.
However, Dr. Hor Bunleng, the
director of the National AIDS
Committee in the Ministry of
Health told the Cambodian Times
that the reported number of HIV
patients in Kratie was not official.
There ' s no way of telling since
there ' s no method of testing or
consistent studies done. The
Ministry of Health in Cambodia is
only at its primitive stage in dealing
with this deadly disease. When
one is infected with HIV, mostly
through heterosexual contact or
blood, there is no blatant evidence
that person is carrying the virus,
and it can sometimes take five to
ten years to develop symptoms and
full blown AIDS.
The virus in Asia is a subtype E
which is more dangerous and easily
spread than the subtype B in the
U.S. Laboratory tests show that
unlike
military men who go and seek
traditional remedies with the hope
of curing it like gonorrhea or
syphilis, which are treatable with
herbal medicine.
AIDS cases among the Cambodian population in the United States
is fairly minute, although the Center
For Disease Control, (CDC),
reports 3,457 adult Asian Pacific
Islander Americans with AIDS, but
it doesn't mean that there ' s no
need for awareness and education.

better chance for children to
remain interested in school. The
New England Alive experience is
very much in line with the concept
ofexploring, pretending and
experimenting as a means to
educational discovery.
The Komar Day Care Center
serves children and their families
who need assistance and education
to develop safe and productive lifestyles. Our center is staffed with
one director, one teacher, one
Cambodian bilingual assistance
teacher, and one part time counselor. We care for as many as
twenty pre-schoolers by teaching
them social skills and academic
readiness while building their selfesteem. Most of the time they are
doing children's work- playing.
That is how they learn. There are
areas around the room for exploring, pretending, and experimenting.
Materials include color, paint,
-
fflff
,
blocks, puzzles, books, play dough,
dolls, and various toys. The
children color, paint, cut, and paste.
They also learn songs, poem~, and
games while developing their
physical skills. Sometimes, we go
to the park for wider and more
open space where they can run,
skip,jump, and throw balls.
Our other activities include a
field trip to the New England Alive
where small wild animals who have
been injured are cared for and a
picnic in the park. This past
summer their staff bought some
animals to the Komar Day Care
Center.
Parents are always welcome to
visit the Komar Day Care Center.
Part of our program is also directed
at helping with parental skills. Our
child care counselor calls parents
frequently to make sure they
understand everything that is
happening at the daycare. We also
send home information about
caring for our children, including
their basic needs - dressing for
changes in the weather, dental
care, personal hygiene, healthy
diets, and immunizations.
In last April we celebrated the
New Year with a Cambodian feast
and in November we have a
traditional Thanksgiving feast. This
year we also saw a special performance of Cambodian Dances.
Recognizing cross-cultural needs
and showing respect for language
and values of all ethnic groups are
always practiced.
There are several openings for
children (ages 3-5 years) oflow
income families and of families on
AFDC whose parents are attending classes such as ESL (English
as a Second Language), GED
(General Education Development
Tests), and job training. Please call
CMAA for more information

and all are young mothers. The
class has a high expectation of
these young mothers. The teacher,
Judith D. Nelson, works well with
the students and expects a lot from
them. Luz appreciates Judith for
pushing her to work hard and
believing in her ability. Luz also
says that the YPP focuses on
individual attention as opposed to a
regular high school, which makes it
more possible to get the GED.
In the past year several students got their GED. One is
currently enrolled in Middlesex
Community College, three will start
in January and one is in a specialized training program. We are
proud of these students and
congratulate Luz and the other
young women who have experienced success.

set up. A total of seven computers
are now functional for our young
people' s use. Software has been
installed. They can do their
homework on Microsoft 3.0 and
6.0 . We hope to set up E-mail and
Internet system to allow young
people here to communicate with
those in Cambodia.
I need volunteers. Those of you
who can teach basic computer
literacy are welcomed.
Secondly, I will be offering a
class in Khmer traditional music.
Your children can sign up and learn
to play a traditional Khmer instrument such as the flute and the two
string troy as well as the khim. I
believe in the importance of music
in connecting young people with
their roots and their Khmer soul. If
anyone of you can offer to teach a
musical instrument, please let me
know and volunteer.
Thirdly, our youth program, in
collaboration with the Khmer
Cultural Institute of Lowell, is
organizing a theater group of
Cambodian youth to write, produce,
act and stage. Through this they
will be able to share each other's
life experiences and self-reflection.
I am working on scheduling all
of these three programs as after
school, non-informal activities and
educational programs. Any
university students, parents,
brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts
are welcomed to volunteer. I
cannot do it alone.
Call me at 454-4286 or come by
to CMAA at 125 Perry Street,
Lowell, MA01852.
Arn Chorn-Pond,
Youth Coordinator, Singer and
Instrumentalist

•
Owner-occupied buildings with
no more than four units; and
•
Certain single-family housing it
is sold or rented without the
use of discriminatory advertising or a real estate broker,
agent or salesperson.
What Modifications To Existing
Premises Must Be Permitted?
•
A landlord or provider of
housing must permit a person
with disabilities to make
reasonable modification, at the
person's expense, to the
existing housing or common
use areas if the proposed
modifications are necessary for
the person's full use of the
housing/premises.
•
In rental property, where it is
reasonable to do so, a landlord
may give conditional permission to make a modification if
the renter agrees to restore
the interior of the premises to
the condition that existed
before the modification.
•
A housing provider is not
required to offer housing of a
fundamentally different
nature.

�My Christmas
Chath pierSath
fl celebrate Christmas even though
L,II am not a Christian. I celebrate
it because Jesus Christ, like other
manifestations ofGod, taught love
and compassion. He taught us to

�is Coming to the Merrimack River August 23, 1997
U
magine a beautiful summer day
of festivities and fun. Imagine a
colorful, joyful Southeast Asian
Water Festival coming to the
Merrimack River. You can hear
traditional and modern Southeast
Asian music, dance, listen to
storytelling, get your fortune read,
eat tasty ethnic food, watch boat
racing and
learn about
environmental and health
issues from
the different
booths we set
up.
This is a
replication of
a Water Festival
that
takes place
every year m
Southeast
Asia.
In
Cambodia,
the Festival
celebrates the
direction reversal of the
Mekong River and the beginning of
the harvest season. In the city of
Phnom Penh, people from all over
the country come to see the boat
races. Men and women wear colorful costumes. Food stalls line the
river bank. Music from live bands
can be heard. There' s fireworks and
colorful, neon flotillas to light the river
at night. The river bank in front ofthe
royal palace is packed with people.
For different non-governmental organizations working in Cambodia, it's
their chance to pass out information
on HNI AIDS or landmines during
the day. At night, people enjoy live
comedy shows, traditional theater,
music and dance. They also celebrate a religious ceremony called
oum ombok in honor of the moon
Goddess. People line up to receive a
special sacrament of coconut juice, a
spoonful of meshed banana with
pounded rice from the monks. This is
to renew one's hope and fortune .
The Water Festival in Cambodia
was banned under the Khmer Rouge.
It has only recently been revised.
Today, the tradition is very much
alive. Happy people are seen again
every mid-November along the river
in front of the palace enjoying the
boat races.
Wewanttoreplicatethistradition
here along the Merrimack's
Pawtucket Blvd. So far, a Southeast
Asian Water Festival Group has been
established, and theplanningprocess
has started.
The Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association and the Lao American community are collaborating with
the city ofLowell, the City' s Department of Public Health, the New England FolkLife Center, the University of Massachusetts - Lowell ' s
Center for Family, Work and Community, and other agencies on this
festival.
On November 5, 1996, our first
meeting with community members
took place. Attendees at the meeting
included a monk, two lay nuns and
various community leaders and university students.
The purpose of the
meeting was to get
community involvement and reflect further on how
the Water Festival
is celebrated in
Southeast Asia.
Everybodywasexcited as they reminisced about what
they remembered
of the festival in
their homeland.
This festival is for everybody
toenjoy,notjustfor
Southeast Asians.
People of all ages
will be able to enjoy food, music, storytelling and learn
more about the historical and cultural
connection to the Merrimack River
and the Mekong in Southeast Asia.
There will be a replica of a boat built
exactly like the ones in Asia along
with many other festivities to enjoy.
We need your involvement and
support. Community members are
asked to volunteer and give ideas and
participate in the planning
of this festival. If you would like to
get involved, please call me, Chath
pierSath, at CMAAat 508-454-4286.

�Preface
The stories collected in this book retell the experiences of refugees as
they leave their homelands and settle in the United States. While
some of the problems they encounter during the resettlement
process are severe, the purpose of this collection is not to criticize
particular agencies and institutions, which provide many beneficial
services to the community, but to bring greater awareness to difficult
situations.
Although not many refugees from Burma are resettling in Lowell
anymore, all other refugees who are currently coming to the U.S. are
facing similar challenges. Considering this situation, this book is
written with three goals in mind. Our first goal is to point out gaps
in the refugee resettlement system so that responsible stake
holders, especially policy makers, will have a chance to look into
the current system and make changes to serve new refugees better
in the future. The long-term support for refugees, which is the postresettlement program, will need to be in place for refugees to
become self- sufficient. Secondly, we will provide some of the
refugees’ background information as well as their needs so that
service providers will have a better understanding of the refugees’
challenges and can try to find ways to serve refugees better. Lastly,
this book not only intends to record the refugees’ stories before
they fade away from their memories, but also to help future
generations learn about their histories, identities, and how their
ancestors struggled and sacrificed for their future generations to
have better lives.

Acknowledgement
I personally would like to thank all the community members who
generously contributed their time, stories and pictures for the book.
Adult refugees wrote their own stories in Burmese, which I translated
into English, while the refugee youth wrote their stories in English.
I am also very grateful to Professor Susan Tripathy from the Sociology
Department at UMass Lowell for helping with everything from
editing to applying for the grant to publish the book. Huge thanks
also to Nyan Lynn, a Burmese master journalist student at the
Emerson College for helping with all the formatting and layout for
the book.
My appreciation also goes to the Indochinese Refugee Fund for
giving us the grant for this book publication. This fund was
established by the former Indochinese Refugee Foundation (led by
UMass Lowell Political Science Professor Emeritus Hai Pho and
Center for Diversity and Pluralism Director Emeritus Tuyet-Lan
Pho), and is currently administered by the UMass Lowell Center for
Asian American Studies, co-directed by English Professor Sue J. Kim
and Psychology Professor Ivy Ho.

STORIES FROM SAYDANAR
Introduction
Between 2007 and 2016, about 300 refugees from Burma
resettled in Lowell, Massachusetts. The majority are ethnic Karen
and Karenni from the Eastern parts of Burma. They were traditionally
farmers, living very rural lives in the most underdeveloped parts of
the country.
These ethnic parts of Burma are resource rich, which has
resulted in armed conflict for up to 60 years (since the British handed
over independence) between the Military Burmese Government and
ethnic rebel groups. As a result there are over 150,000 refugees living
in nine border camps across Thailand, and thousands more who are
undocumented and working as illegal migrant workers.
Many refugees have lived in these refugee camps for over 25
years, including many who were born there, with no freedom of
movement, and no right to work in the camp. The United States has
resettled up to 150,000 refugees within the last eight years. Although
grateful to have security and a future for their children, the refugee
populations from Burma face many challenges to fit into the new
system and culture.
4
�After eight months to one year’s support by resettlement
agencies in the U.S., refugees are expected to have reached a point of
economic self-sufficiency. Many are illiterate, having never attended
school or attended only primary grades; many have skills only in
farming or traditional customs such as weaving; very few speak
English; and the majority have never lived even in a city in Burma,
let alone a large city like Lowell in the U.S. Achieving self-sufficiency
in this time span is a challenge.
SayDaNar recognizes the need for continued support to the
community with specific cultural and language bridging, to help all
generations acquire necessary coping strategies for life in the U.S.
and to reduce the psychological stress and frustrations of cultural
adaptation. The community from Burma has a lot to offer a cultural
and artistic city such as Lowell, and with the right support,
encouragement and empowerment will be able to richly contribute
to the present cultural, social and economic environment of the city.
SayDaNar supports self-learning, education and growth – seeing the
community not as subjects of charity, but as individuals who via
effective access to information are able to support themselves and
their families and choose the best course of action for their lives in
the United States, and to contribute to their new city of Lowell.

�Personal Stories of Adult Refugees from
Burma currently living in Lowell
Zaw Aung
I lived in Taung Gyi City, Shan State in Myanmar. My father
ran a goldsmith business to feed our family. I am the third son out of
eight siblings in my family. My father worked alone and was able to
feed all our 10 family members. Even though we were not rich, we
were able to live comfortably and attend schools. However, when
the currency money was de-monetized by the military government
in 1985, our family became disordered and my father also died.
As for me, after my father died, I quit school and started
working. I sometimes worked as a goldsmith and sometimes worked
as a mechanic as I was struggling with the life until the military took
a coup in 1988. I became one of the armed group members.
Besides the military government, there is nothing that I do
not like about Burma. I love and like everything. When I was living
inside Burma, even though I have never faced any physical abuses,
6
�I would have to say it affected our mental health. Because our family
became chaos after the currency money was de-monetized and the
coup. I really hate the military government and left Burma since
1988 and have never gone back since then.
How should I say for a refugee? We were in a jungle in ThaiBurma border where the armed groups lived. The military accused
the villagers of supporting the armed groups and destroyed their
villages, and those villagers came to live with us. In 1996, it
officially became a refugee camp.
Since then until I came to the U.S. in 2012, the years that I
lived in the refugee camp were exactly 16 years. In the beginning of
becoming as a refugee, living places and food were getting better.
After 2006, when the UNHCR brought the refugees who worked in
cities to the camps, we faced many difficulties in the camp. The
camp that I lived in is as big as a small town so I would have to say
it is quite a big one.
The problems were reduced ration food, reduced materials
to maintain houses and not being allowed to go out of the camp. Due
to not having enough food for the family, we went outside of the
camp illegally to work near the Thai villages under very cheap
7
�wages to support the families. In the beginning, I would say with the
permission of the Thai government’s personnel, the camp authority,
we were allowed to work about one week or 10 days.
However, the transportation fee could eat up all of our wages
that we earned for a week or 10 days, so we went out and worked
illegally. Because I went out illegally, if I were arrested, the ration
food would be cut. The daily wage there was, if calculated in dollars,
about 5 or 6 dollars maximum.
Both health and education were pretty good in the camp.
Even though the clinic in the camp could not afford to have a full
time doctor, there were health care providers who were able to
perform quite a lot and lived in the camp as well as two or three cars
to transport patients to a hospital in the city. We didn’t have to pay
to use them.
We had to pay a little for education; for example, the
traditional custom fee, such as the entrance fee, teacher fee, etc.
With regard to the refugee camp, there was nothing to like about it.
Nothing was ok and there was no freedom due to having to live
under the Thai military.
We always had to look at their face whatever we did. The
most difficult thing in the camp was the future for the children
because the education from the camp wasn’t recognized anywhere.
Because the education was not guaranteed, it was so difficult for
families when they didn’t have a chance to resettle and go to a third
country. The children’s future was getting worse when many families
didn’t have the opportunity to resettle in the third country.
The decision to come to the U.S was for the future of my
children. We thought even if my children didn’t finish their education,
8
�at least they would be able to go to college and learn from a world
standard education. We thought that would be the best we could give
them as a parent. Therefore, we tried our best to resettle.
It took 8 years for me to resettle in the U.S. When we were
notified to arrive in the U.S. on September 11, 2012, our family was
so happy. We gave away all our belongings from our house and
killed animals that we had at home to celebrate and have a farewell
party. Some were happy and some were crying.
The disappointment began when we got to Quincy,
Massachusetts. We were really depressed because on the night that
we arrived, the organization that sponsored our family left a chicken
and a fried rice box in the refrigerator for our family of six and left
us for one or two days. The worst thing was their office was in
Boston, but we lived in Quincy. It was not very easy in the beginning
due to the language barrier as well as the transportation difficulty.
The office was very far from where we lived so we had to
take the subway and buses. Whenever we went to the office, we had
to spend the whole day. They only gave us $10 or $20 when we went
there. We are a family of six but the rice cooker was so tiny and it
wasn’t enough for us. My wife’s niece from Lynn brought a rice
cooker for us so we gave her the small one.
Our case was transferred to the Lowell office but the Lowell
office didn’t help us very much either. We were told that we had
signed the lease for six months. We weren’t informed until the lease
was signed. We were planning to go to Oregon because my friends
asked me to move over there. However, we were told that we would
not receive any welcome money if we moved. So we requested to
move to Lynn where my wife’s niece lives but they moved us to
9
�Lowell. We didn’t have any bed.
We didn’t have a blanket or a mattress. Before we moved,
we were told that everything was set up in Lowell and not to bring
anything. However, when we arrived in Lowell, the apartment had
nothing--no blanket and no mattress. We slept like that for almost
two weeks. Finally, we got mattresses from a family who just got
here and moved to Minnesota. We picked up his family’s mattresses.
I saw the different treatment among different refugee communities.
When some Iraqi refugees came, everything was set up almost
perfectly. However, when refugees from Burma came, we don’t
even have food that we eat even though the case manager was an
Asian. It began to get better after we moved to Lowell. We have
people from the same country here as well as SayDaNar organization.
After getting food stamps and Medicaid, as we became
settled in the U.S, I started looking for a job. I started working on
April 4, 2013, at the laundry company in Haverhill. I forgot
everything to start a new life. As of today, it has been over three
years. Children are able to learn their education. If we don’t
understand things, SayDaNar organization helps to solve the
problems so even though we don’t speak, read and write the
language, we are not disappointed.
Since we can be rest assured for our children, we only need
to move forward in our lives peacefully. Therefore, we are very
grateful to all the organizations and the U.S government for arranging
us to resettle in the U.S. There is nothing that I don’t like in the U.S.
Since every opportunity has been given, I think we only need to take
the action to do it. I like everything because I know that I can live
anywhere if I know how to live.

�Le Say
I lived in a village with my parents until I was 11. I’m not
sure if that village was in Karen State or not. After I left, I never
went back to that village. When I lived with them, they sent me to
school. We only have elementary school in our village. We worked
in a farmland for our living.
About one month after our father died, there was a battle
near our village. Some weapons fell in our village so we had to run.
Our village was located near a small stream. Everybody ran, and so
did I. I couldn’t see anyone. I hid in a hole on the sand near the
stream where I used to play with my friends. After the battles, when
everything became quiet, I came out.
My family was so worried about me because they couldn’t
find me so they thought I was killed. When they found me, they
were so happy and beat me up with a stick. After my father died, no
place made me happy. I didn’t have any place to go either. One
month after that, when my elder sister came back to Karen State, I
followed her. I was allowed to stay to the end of middle school.
When I was taking grade 6 exam, I took the exam in a jungle
11
�under a tree because we ran away from our village due to the fighting.
I got malaria and was very sick when I took the exam. My teacher
asked me to go home but I refused to go because I didn’t have
enough time coming to school. Sometimes, we have 2 days or 3
days of school in a week. Sometimes, if the situation was not good,
we had to hide in a jungle.
The medication was so bitter and made me dizzy. Sometimes,
I was thinking back, and I thought we almost died. We didn’t have a
clinic, no medications. We heavily relied on home remedies for any
sickness. One time, I was very sick and fainted but nobody was near
me. One of my friends, when she had fever, her body was so hot so
we placed some banana leaves on her chest as well as on her back to
release the heat.
When I lived in the Karen State, we had to walk one whole
day to go to where food was stored. We went as a group. We left
when the sun rose, around 6 am, and walked through jungles,
climbed mountains up and down until we reached where the food
was stored. By the time that we got there, it was already dark. Then
the next morning, we carried rice and walked back to our village.
I worked as a schoolteacher in a village for one year. I only
had 2 students in my class. Families were not able to send their
children due to difficulties. Families who lived a little far from the
school couldn’t come to the school because they didn’t have an
umbrella in the rainy season. They didn’t have a raincoat or shoes.
We had to clean an old fish paste sack to use as a raincoat.
After Manalplaw fell, it was around 1994 and 1995, we
didn’t have a permanent place to stay. We moved here and there and
hid here and there. I wasn’t personally tortured but I have seen those
12
�things. I had to run when the enemies came, move when there were
battles, and run from the battles and bullets. We ran from the village
to the jungles without having food and places to sleep. Nothing was
good since we had to live in a jungle.
The sound of shootings was behind us. We were not sure
where were the shootings and bombings, we just ran. When we were
hiding in the jungle, we were a group of people, families, relatives
and friends. For food, we tried to carry some rice that we had. We
cooked the rice with a small pot and made soup with some vegetables
that we could find in the jungle. We tried to inquire where it would
be safe for us and traveled there.
Before we were able to build a hut for us, we placed leaves
on the ground and slept on them. Things were getting worse and
worse. It became the worst in 1997. I like the natural and the
traditional culture, the religions that we ethnic groups believe in.
However we faced unfair treatment from civil war. They
tortured us, killed us. They burnt our houses. They destroyed the
paddy fields. They came during harvesting time and put fire on the
paddy fields and burnt all the rice stocks. Sometimes, we even had
to cook corn.
They gave us so many kinds of troubles. Due to the civil war
and the conflict, our living was in trouble. For example, I know a
girl who now lives in Minnesota, when she was about over 1 year
old, her parents went out with a group of about ten for grocery
shopping at another village to feed their families.
On their way back home, they met with Burmese soldiers
and everyone, all women and men, were arrested. Her father’s neck
was cut and he was killed. They were detained somewhere near the
13
�border. Finally, they were able to find ways to escape and her mother
came back to her daughter. However, since the mother got back, she
was sick all the time until she died. The daughter was left with her
grandparents.
It took us about one month to get to the refugee camp.
During our journey, our food ran out so we had to ask for food
from villages on the way. Sometimes, we even had to boil corn and
ate this. We were left behind because we were trying to take care of
some people who were more vulnerable than us.
Some people who knew where the refugee camp was had
gone first. Nobody was able to help each other. We didn’t know
where the refugee camp was and were wondering and looking for
the refugee camp for three days along the river on the Thai Burma
border. One day, someone found us and took us to the refugee
camp. When we crossed the river, my sister and her daughter, who
was only one month old, were almost drowned.
My sister suffered a lot from the harsh journey. After
delivering her baby she wasn’t able to stay warm and got wet in rain.
Since we got to the refugee camp, I never had a chance to return. I
wasn’t able to return either. Sometimes, I was thinking about it and
I didn’t understand. We had to run and run and I didn’t know why
we had to run. Did we run because other people ran?
We slept without mosquito nets so many of us were bitten by
mosquitos and got malaria. My elder son was always sick. He also
got malaria, which he was treated for only when he got to the camp.
Both of my sons have different issues. With my elder son, I carried
him all the time and breastfed him whenever he was hungry.
However, I had to leave my younger son when he was young.
14
�Before we came to the U.S., my youngest son was sick and
hospitalized. We were given the date to travel to the U.S. but the
flight was postponed because of his condition. We had to wait 6
more months. My younger son was malnourished because I wasn’t
able to stay home to breastfeed him when he was young.
We lived in the camp for 15 years. In the camp was a food
warehouse, health care clinic, school, camp committee, security,
youth organization and women’s organization. The camp that I
lived in had 15 sections. Each section had about 150-200 people. I
think the total population was over 15,000. We got enough food.
The foods that we got were rice, cooking oil, bean, chili, fish paste,
canned fish and salt. Those foods were distributed by NGOs such
as MHD and ZOA.
Due to the need in the school, I had an opportunity to work
as a teacher. I worked for 10 years. During the first 3 years, I got 300
bhats per month, which is probably 9-10 U.S. dollars. After that, I
got 500 bhats per month until 2008. In 2009-2010, based on the
teaching subject and the years, I got 760 bhats. There are two
elementary schools, one middle school, four high schools, KYLMA
and NKJC. The main subjects that are taught in the schools are
English, math, Karen language, Myanmar language, history,
geography, and science. The rest is arts and crafts. Recently, the
Thai language is also taught in the schools.
For healthcare, there is a laboratory, hospital, clinic, and
maternity clinic. Those are all free. The difficulties that we faced in
the camp was the affect on our health due to mosquitos and sand-fly
bites, and because of not enough clothes, blankets, mosquito nets,
and other materials. We had no food for nutrition. There is no
15
�opportunity to go out to earn money. Therefore, we got into trouble.
Due to many difficulties, we decided to come to the U.S. for
our children’s future when the U.S. called for resettlement.
International Organization for Migration (IOM) helped us to come
to the U.S. and gave a medical check up. For elderly people, disabled
people and people with chronic diseases, a nurse accompanied them
from the camp to the U.S. Because of the language barrier, a person
was assigned in the airport to help refugees. Finally, we arrived in
the U.S.
In the beginning, we met with our case manager. We felt sad
because everything was new: language, houses, place and location.
We couldn’t think of how to build our lives. Even though, I knew
that everyone had more or less their own difficulties, I felt as if I
didn’t have the ability. However, when I met with other people, they
told me about their experience when they got here. I was glad to see
friends, people who helped us.
The biggest difficulty is the language because we can’t read
and write. However, I got a job because of friends and people who
are here. I was happy because I was able to overcome 50% of the
difficulties. In America, everyone has the same rights. The ones who
live here are kind and have good will. You have opportunity to work
as much as you would like to. I like those things. For that, I greatly
appreciate it.
16
�Key Meh
When I was in Burma, we worked in a farmland for living.
We had family and relatives there so they came to help when we had
work. We also had a school but it was only at the elementary level.
Because we were illiterate and not educated, we had to work on a
farm. The best thing I like about it was we were able to live in our
own house, our own space in our town in our own country. Due to
various conditions of the country, the ruling of the Burmese
government is not good.
It will be endless to talk about how the Burmese government
and the Burmese soldiers bullied us. We felt as if whether we lived
or died, nothing would make a difference, so we wandered in jungles
wherever they took us, and finally ended up getting to the refugee
camp, which we didn’t even know existed. We lived in the camp for
10 years. Life in the camp was just like that. We built a hut for our
family with wood and bamboo that was distributed by the
organization in the camp. Rice, oil, beans and salt were also given
but we had to be frugal in order to get through the whole month. If I
have to talk about it, there will be a lot.
17
�The most difficult thing was not having security for our lives.
We worried about it too much. The camp is a big one but I don’t
know the measurement. I never have asked the number of families
or people in the camp. I heard other people say it but I forgot. Food
was distributed by an organization; I would say a world organization.
Sometimes, it was enough for the whole month but sometimes it
wasn’t. The people who have education can work in the camp, like
a schoolteacher or a health worker. I used to work as a schoolteacher.
When I started working, the salary was 500 bahts, and then it was
increased by the years of working. When it is 10 years, the salary
will be up to 800 bahts. 500 bahts is $16.66 and 800 bahts is $26.66.
For health, we had a clinic. If we had a regular illness, we
went to the clinic. If too serious, the clinic sent us to a hospital in a
city. However, it didn’t work out well. There were so many people
who died, but who shouldn’t have died. There was no doctor in the
hospital. We didn’t have to pay money. Compared to my village, I
liked the camp because it was clean, had health care for children and
a little education.
There were schools and the system was memorizing.
Children went to school. The Thai authorities were very scary. What
I didn’t like is we were not allowed to go out of the camp. I felt as if
we were detained in a detention center. The thing that made us so
stressed out, was that illiterate people could not do any work so they
did not have enough to support their families. People became what
they should not have become.
Therefore, I decided to come to the U.S. When I came to the
U.S, I came with an interpreter on the way. But there was no
interpreter when I got in the U.S. So I showed the IOM bags that I
18
�had with me, then a security officer accompanied us. After that the
ones who would help us came to pick us up with their cars.
I didn’t know what happened in the beginning in the U.S. I
didn’t know the direction, east or west. Sometimes, I felt as if I was
dreaming. I didn’t know anybody. I didn’t speak English. I didn’t
know what to do. Getting around was also difficult. I didn’t know
whom to contact. I had never used the stove in the apartment where
I lived. I was so worried if I used it wrong. Later on, when I got to
know the people who came before me, I asked them to help me. I
started my new life gradually.
When we met with the caseworker, we were told to call when
we need help. We didn’t have a phone yet that time. After we had a
phone, we called them when we needed. When I called, the phone
was never picked up. I was told not to call during working time.
When I called after work, I was told that it was their personal time
and didn’t pick up the phone. I didn’t know what time to call. It was
worse when we got sick. We didn’t know where to go. I didn’t know
the hospital or the clinic.
When I got to know the places, I didn’t speak the language
and didn’t have a car. When we met with the caseworker, we talked
to him about it. Our caseworker asked us why we came to an English
country if we didn’t know anything, and if we only came to give
trouble to other people. The caseworker also said that in this country,
they only care about children but not elderly people, and to learn by
ourselves for everything. If we needed to go to an office or a hospital,
we needed to be able to go by ourselves. The longest they,
caseworkers, took care of us was from the beginning to a month.
After one month, they had nothing to do with us.
19
�The caseworker never showed us where and how to apply if
we didn’t get health insurance and food stamps. We were so stressed
when we didn’t get those benefits. We didn’t have food stamps and
health insurance because we didn’t speak the language and we didn’t
know what to do. We only got health insurance for 8 months after
our arrival.
Food stamps were only given to kids who go to school.
Sometimes, some people from an organization, I didn’t know which
organization, came to visit our apartment. They opened the
refrigerator. We didn’t know what they were talking and asking
about. We guessed that they might be asking the name of our
caseworker so we told them the caseworker and the agency name.
They looked here and there and then went back. Because our
caseworker told us not to open the door to anyone if we didn’t know
them, and if we opened the door and something happened, they
won’t take any responsibility, so not only us, but all the Burmese
were so scared.
When my family was in Texas, we never felt safe. We saw a
lot of killings and robberies. One Karenni youth was killed outside
of his apartment. We lived at the same apartment. His relatives were
coming to visit his family from another state, and couldn’t find the
place so they called him to wait outside. Somebody shot him when
he was waiting for his relative outside of the apartment.
When the police came, they said that he wasn’t a citizen so
there was nothing that they could do about it. Another Burmese
Muslim from our apartment was also shot in his knee when he was
sitting and chit chatting with his friends at his balcony. A car drove
by and shot at them. When one Chin student came back from school,
some people hit him with a rod on his head. He was admitted to a
20
�hospital for a week.
One of my Karenni neighbor’s car was hit by a Bhutanese
car, and they both argued and were about to fight. When 911 was
called at around 1pm, the police came over around 3pm. When
police officers came over, they didn’t even come close. The police
officer also told them not to come closer. They stood from the other
side of the street and shouted to inquire what happened.
Many Karenni students dropped out of school because they
were struggling in the school because of the language barrier. They
didn’t want to go to school so they pretended that they went to school
in the morning, and came back in the afternoon along with the other
students. We didn’t know where they were wandering the whole
day. I never stopped worrying until my sons came back home. Even
though I was afraid, and knew that it wasn’t safe to go out at
nighttime, I was determined that even if I had to die, I was going to
look for them until I found them.
With regard to America, it is very good for opportunities.
However, I am very worried for my children because if they can’t
take all the opportunities, it could lead to the worst life. Another
thing is if you don’t speak English, you lose so many opportunities.
Now, we would say it was getting better after arriving in Lowell,
Massachusetts.
However, I still lose many opportunities and benefits because
I do not speak English. I really want to learn to speak English. The
school has a speaking class but it doesn’t fit with my work schedule.
It always is one thing or the other missed. What worries me the most
is whenever I think about the funeral expenses and the cemetery to
bury me in when I die.
21
�Peter Nyint
I was born in Loikaw Town. Back then, the Burma Socialist
Programme Party ruled the country. I was the eldest son in my
family. The year I was born was 1960. I grew up in Pruso Town after
my parents moved from Loikaw to Pruso. I studied from grade 1 to
grade 4 in Pruso Town. After I passed grade 4, I moved to Taung Gyi
City to continue my study. The school is called Seminary. I studied
from grade 5 to grade 10 at that school. I dropped out of school after
I failed grade 10. After I quit the school, I started working as a
missionary. I tried to apply to a civil servant position but I didn’t
pass the interview. What I like the most about the system was the
affordable commodity prices. For example, a sack of rice was only
22 kyats.
My family has 7 sons. During the Burma Socialist Programme
Party, porters were taken from my family because of having too
many boys. Even though I was never taken, one of my brothers was
always taken as a porter. That is the thing that I dislike the most in
Burma. Therefore, I moved to Karenni Revolutionary Area in 1985.
I served as a schoolteacher in the area. That time, the refugee camp
22
�was not established yet in Karenni Revolutionary.
Only later on, Karenni refugee camp was established. In the
Karenni refugee camp, the fixed monthly salary for the Elementary
school teachers was 300 bhats, the middle school teachers 400 bhats
and the high school teachers for 500 bhats. After the Karenni refugee
camp was officially recognized, salaries for teachers were given
according to their years of working by an NGO called JRS. I served
as a school teacher for 27 years in the camp.
Due to the frequent Burmese military attacks to the Karenni
Revolutionary area, the Karenni people couldn’t stay there anymore
so they crossed Thai land and formed a Karenni refugee camp in
Thailand. I lived in the refugee camp for 24 years. The most difficult
thing in the camp was not being allowed to go outside freely.
Karenni camp 1 and Karenni camp 2 were demarcated. I
guess the population was over 20,000. Food and living spaces were
given for families in the camp so it was enough for daily needs.
However, there was no extra. We were allowed to work in the camp.
I worked at the education department as a teacher and earned 950
bhats. I do not know about the exchange rate to U.S. dollar.
There is a clinic in the camp and there are health care
workers. We didn’t have to pay when we went to the clinic to get
treatment. There are schools in the camp from elementary to high
school. Every school-aged child is allowed to study. The education
system in the camp is very similar to the system in Burma. However,
the Karenni language was the extra subject.
When we were living in the camp, we had to be afraid of the
Thai authorities. Thai soldiers, who guarded the camp, beat me
when I came back in the night after visiting other places. I decided
23
�to come to the U.S. because we were not allowed to go out freely. I
lived happily in the beginning of arriving in the U.S., because I
didn’t have to be afraid of the Thai military, police and the Burmese
military.
My family of six came to the U.S. on the 1st of April, 2009.
That time, the caseworker placed us in an apartment. We didn’t
know any other Burmese family. In the beginning, the caseworker
fed us chicken and bread. We ate like that for 2 weeks. After that, the
caseworker gave us $80 so we went to a shop and bought the food
that we were familiar with, rice and curry.
However, it wasn’t enough so we requested the caseworker
again. The caseworker said that we had to buy food with the $80.
Even though we said it wasn’t enough, the caseworker refused to
give us more. After a while, he gave us $80 one time, and $120 one
time. We had to buy food for our family. Our family received a food
stamp card only after 2 months. Things were getting better because
we were able to buy food with the food stamp card.
Then, one of my daughters got hit by a car and admitted to a
hospital. I had to go to the hospital in Boston to look after my
daughter for 8 months. I was very worried and sad. During that time,
I wasn’t able to eat home food. I ate whatever food that the hospital
fed me. Later on, a Baptist pastor heard the news and came to see
me. He gave me $500. Only that time, I was able to go to a shop and
ate the food that I like so it was getting better.
However, transportation was not good. I was able to go back
to see my family only once a month because it was the time that I
didn’t know how to get around. I could even say Rev. Maung Maung
Htwe is my benefactor because while I was taking care of my
24
�daughter in the hospital, he helped me with money and food. Even
though my daughter came back from the hospital, she fell off from
the bed and broke one of her legs. We had to admit her in the hospital
again.
I am the head of household but because my daughter was in
the hospital, I wasn’t able to work. I went to a local agency for about
one year to learn English. Therefore, the food stamps benefit was
continued for us. After that, I started working. Since the year that I
started working, the food stamps benefit was reduced because it was
said that my salary was getting higher after working. Sometimes, the
food stamps benefit was cut for one or two months. We had to send
the documents to request it and had to apply again. After that, the
food stamps benefit was allowed.
However, it was not like before. My eldest daughter wasn’t
in my household list so I had to contact the food stamps office to fix
it. The food stamps office added my eldest daughter but they took
out my youngest son so I had to contact the caseworker again. The
benefit was getting less and less because we had been living here
almost 7 years. Now, the food stamps benefit was only $19 for a
month. If it is not enough, we have to spend our money to buy food.
My daughter became 19 years old so she is not eligible to receive the
food stamps benefit. I like the health benefits in the U.S.
25
�Philisato Kawhla
My name is Pilisato Kawhla and I was born on April 12,
1991 to a poor family in Myanmar. I did not have a chance to live
longer with my parents because when I was just seven years old,
they sent me to a boarding house for my education. I moved to
Thailand because of the instability of political situations in Myanmar.
There were a lot of violations, torturing, human rights abuses and
forced labor in Myanmar. Most people got out of the country for
jobs, security, and education.
So, I arrived in Thailand in April 2006 as a refugee. Then I
went to school until I graduated from Karenni Post Ten in 2011.
After that I was teaching at a Karenni high school as a volunteer for
two years. Then I married Teresal JoeJar as my forever partner on
July 12, 2012, and my daughter was born on December 19, 2012.
After my daughter was born, I tried to find my specific future for my
family. As everyone knows, there is nothing more important than
family. I am the man who has to build the future for my family. I
could not imagine my family’s future living in a refugee camp
forever, because there were no opportunities, security or freedom.
26
�Nobody wants to leave their family, but I had to because I had to try
for my family to escape from the refugee camp, and I did not have
any other way except by immigration. My wife could not go with
me because she did not have the UNHCR document registration
card. We wanted to live together forever, but we painfully had to be
apart because of the future of our family.
I arrived in the US on January 15, 2014. After I had been
here for a year, I heard in January 2015 that my daughter was
suffering from retinoblastoma cancer. Even though I heard this bad
news about my daughter, I could not do anything, and tears fell
down from my eyes. My wife and I encouraged each other to be
strong and we hoped our daughter would recover again.
Unfortunately, I did not have any chance to hug, touch, take care and
see my daughter until the day she passed away on July 4, 2015, due
to retinoblastoma cancer. Nothing is more painful than losing a
daughter. When I had lost a daughter, I did not want to lose my wife
anymore. My strongest wish is to reunite and be with my wife
forever.
Now my wife is lonely living in the refugee camp without
her daughter and husband in a scary shelter and environment. She
has to live with bad neighbors. Sometimes people undervalue and
underestimate her instead of encouraging her. She faces a lot of
disturbances by living there because most of the people there are too
rude.
Sometimes they call her as a widow, and they tell her to
marry another one, and sometimes they tell her that your husband
will not come back anymore or he will get married to another
women. In this current situation, she still can try to overcome all
27
�these disturbances, but I’m not sure that she can overcome more
disturbances in the future. Even though I hear from my wife that she
is faced with difficult situations, I cannot do anything for her.
How much pain we have for loving each other without being
together and losing a daughter. We cannot stop crying whenever we
are talking on the phone. She has a lot of depressions and pressures
by living alone with all the difficulties she is facing. Now, the doctor
said she is suffering from the symptoms of heart attack and needs to
take medicine everyday. In the beginning, I thought it was best for
my family if I came here, but everything is getting worse and worse.
I do not want to lose my wife again and I cannot let what happened
to my daughter happen to my wife.
Youth and Young Adult Stories
Ma Gret:
“The most terrifying experience I ever had.”
Have you ever experienced being a refugee in your life?
Would you want to know and learn how it feels to be a refugee? I’m
going to tell you about a refugee’s life and the feeling of being a
refugee. It is how my family and I experienced our lives since I was
born.
First of all, my parents were originally from Burma. They
moved to Thailand in 1990, because they were forced to move out
by the Burmese military without knowing where to go. They lost
28
�their homes and land, therefore they had to settle in a refugee camp
on the Thai-Burma border. It is hard to live in a horrible place facing
difficult situations.
Therefore, to be called a refugee is the opposite of an insult;
it is a badge of strength, courage and victory. They fought for better
lives. I was born as a refugee and had lived there for fourteen and
half years. Life was very tough because there was no freedom and
we couldn’t do whatever we wanted. We also did not have enough
29
�food and were told to just stay in the camp. If anyone left we would
be arrested by a Thai soldier.
In our lives as refugees, we have struggled with lots of
things, such as jobs, economics, and education. We were not allowed
to go wherever we wanted besides the camp. Can you image how
hard this would be? If you were in my place what would you have
done and how would you feel?
Secondly, my father was a teacher and my mother was a
homemaker. We did not have much income because my father was
the only one who worked in my family. Fortunately, my siblings and
I got an opportunity to study while living in the camp, however we
did not learn much English because our English teachers were not
originally English-speaking people, so their English was not fluent.
A million people have lived in the camps, and they have
faced situations similar to what my family did. Most of the refugees
have lived there for several years. Many preferred to live in a better
place, so most of them decided to make a new settlement to places
such as U.S., Australia, New Zealand, Finland and Canada.
However some of them are still remaining in the refugee
camp even though there is no way for them to go outside. They are
intending to go back to Burma to rebuild the homes and lands that
they have lost. For example, my uncle’s family and my aunt’s family
want to keep their own places.
Thirdly, as times have gone by, the UNHCR (UN Refugee
Agency) has offered protection and assistance to ten millions of
refugees to move to a different country for a better life. Therefore,
my family and I were told to apply for settlement to the U.S.
Surprisingly, we thought about it and made an agreement. So, my
30
�family and I finally arrived in the United States on April 2, 2009.
I feel like my life is getting much better here than it was as a
refugee in the camp, because I get more opportunities for an
education to make my future better. Nevertheless, I was faced with
a language barrier because I did not know how to speak English at
all when I first got here. Sadly, I felt discouraged and isolated when
I started going to an American School. It was pretty hard for me to
learn a second language, I even cried in the class because one of my
classmates made fun of me saying: “You’re stupid and you don’t
know how to talk.”
So, I was shocked and I didn’t know how to respond to him.
But I was also optimistic because I believed that I would eventually
make it one day. Although I have faced many obstacles, I’ve never
wanted to give up on things easily. In addition, I feel like I’ve been
improving my English learning skills each day while going to
school. Nonetheless, I honestly still feel scared and shy towards
other people or students while communicating with them.
In conclusion, being a refuge or an immigrant from another
country is not an easy thing to face; I would say that it is important
to learn the language before entering a new country. That would be
the best way to start. And refugees and newcomers to the new place
shouldn’t be neglected by others and should not regret going to a
new country with many opportunities.

�Dah Hsi
Everyone has different experiences in their life. Some are
good, some hard, some easy and some so tough that it is hard for you
to forget. There is a place where there is no electricity or other
electronic services, and not enough food to make a living. Also poor
education and on top of that, there is no freedom. That was a place
where a little girl Dah was born and grew up.
First of all, my name is Dah Hsi but most people call me
Dah, which is a short and easy name. I was born in a Thai refugee
camp. I always wanted to travel place-to-place and see the beautiful
side of another world. I am afraid to get stuck in just one place
without any freedom at all, a place where you cannot even go outside
to look for food or a job for a better life. Despite this, we had no
choice and we could not even do anything about it because we were
just a refugee people that lived under the control of the Thai
government and the United Nations. All of the food, clothes, and
education are from the helping hands of the UN organization.
My original country is Burma, which is also known as
Myanmar. Myanmar is where my parents were born and grew up.
32
�Due to civil war they had to flee from their country. They made their
living and new life in a Thai refugee camp and I was born there.
Even though I was born in Thailand, I’m not a Thai citizen, nor a
Burmese citizen.
It’s hard for us to live as non-citizens for both countries and
there is no way we can go out to other places. Both of my parents are
Karen. Karen is one of the ethnic groups in Burma. Most people
here do not really know what the Karen people are when I tell them
I’m Karen. I know it’s hard for them to understand because Burma
is just a small country, but we have so many different ethnic groups
and they all speak different languages plus different dialects.
However, the main language in Burma is Burmese.
I grew up and graduated from high school in the refugee
camp before I came to the United States. While I was attending high
school in the Thai refugee camp, I had to learn 4 different languages:
Burmese, Thai, English and Karen. It’s hard for us to speak one
language to another language but we try the best we can. I stayed in
the Thai refugee camp for 15 years and I went through so many
experiences.
I don’t regret the past where I came from because I learned
from my mistakes and I’m happy to share my experience with those
who don’t know and don’t have the same experience as me. I’m not
ashamed of myself for being a young refugee girl because I have
learned a lot from that. I came to the United States in 2010 when I
was just a 16 year old girl. Then I went to Lowell High School and
graduated from there in 2014. I’m thankful to God for all the
blessings I have received until this moment of my life. I’m proud
and happy to be who I am.
33
�Der Say
In 1991 I was born in a Thai refugee camp. I am from Burma.
My home family originally is from Burma. My parents were born in
Burma. My parents moved to Thailand at Kay Bo refugee camp. My
parents and I were living in Kay Bo camp and after five years our
village was burned by the Burmese army soldiers. We ran; we could
smell the fire and the smoke burning as we escaped with heavy
breath.
My parents and I had to run away to hide in the forest to save
our lives. It was dark. We had to stay still and we had to stay high up
on the hill. We were scared because the Burmese and Thai soldiers
were shooting at each other. This was very scary for us, but we
eventually got to a Thai refugee camp after many days.
We thought we were safe in the refugee camp but we were
not. My parents and I experienced terrible suffering imposed by a
brutal Thai military. They made it hard for my parents and we had
very little to eat. My parents and I had so many problems living that
we looked for a better place. We felt so sad and frightened because
we didn’t know that we could go when we were ready. My parents
34
�and I tried to find another refugee camp where we would be safe.
My parents and I moved to Mae La refugee camp. When we
moved to Mae La camp, I was five years old. Before this, I use to
live in the Kay Bo refugee camp where I started preschool, and then,
I suddenly had to stop. On Mae La, I had to restart preschool when
I was five years old. I had to learn three different alphabets. I had to
study Karen, Burmese, and the English alphabet language. I studied
hard to learn all three languages.
After preschool, I was going to elementary school. I had to
start first grade. I had studied seven subjects. I studied Karen,
English, science, math, Burmese, history, and geography. I studied
hard because I wanted to learn all seven subjects. Then I completed
elementary school. After elementary school, I went to middle school.
I had to start fifth grade in middle school. I was scared, I did not
want to fail.
I studied nine subjects in middle school. I studied Karen,
English, math, science, Burmese, history, geography, Thai, and the
Bible. English was my hardest subject, but I never gave up. I
continued to study hard. When we lived in the refugee camp, we had
to work hard and study hard in life. When we lived in the refugee
camp, we couldn’t go anywhere. We had to stay in the camp all day.
We were so bored and we didn’t have fun. We also felt very bad
because we didn’t have freedom.
Then, when I entered the seventh grade in the refugee camp,
I heard that our camp leader had announced that the American
government invited us to come to the United States. My parents told
my siblings and I that we were going to the United States. My
siblings and I said we didn’t want to go to the United States. We
35
�were very hesitant because we didn’t know how to speak English.
My parents told us that they wanted us to get an education. My
siblings and I said we would go to the United States, even though we
still didn’t know how to speak English. My family and I agreed to
come to the Americas. All of us applied to come to America, and in
2007, we arrived in the United States.
On our first day in America, we felt so uncomfortable
because we didn’t understand what anyone was saying and when we
got off the airplane, everything was very confusing. We felt so
isolated because we didn’t know how to get anywhere. After a few
weeks, we felt much better. Then, the horrible feeling returned
because my brothers and sisters and I had to start high school very
soon. We were extremely nervous relying on our limited English.
On our first day at high school, we felt so scared because we didn’t
know everyone. To our surprise, many of the students and teachers
helped us find our classrooms. We felt miserable because we didn’t
know anything about where we lived, or what we were studying.
But, we all studied hard in high school.
I studied hard enough to attend a program where I can get
my education and also get my career. I am now studying to be a
certified nursing assistant at Shriver Job Corps. I am also working
on completing my studies to get my high school diploma. I think
you would agree that my journey is now complete.

�Dahlia Paw
To start with, my name is Dahlia Paw. I was born in a very
small village in Thailand, called Mae Ler Maw, but my parents are
originally from Burma. The village where I was born consisted of
about 15-20 families. Lives there were very simple with not much
investment for a better life. The villagers work in the field on a daily
basis and feed themselves off from the farm.
The roofs of the house are made of thatch leaves and the
walls are made from bamboo. I lived there until I was 4 years old,
then my mom decided to move into Mae La camp because they have
a school and it is free. In the village, there was no school and the
villager does not even know what is the meaning of being educated.
Mae La Camp is one of the largest refugee camps in Thailand,
with more than 40,000 refugees. It is mainly composed of ethnic
Karen people (84%), the third largest ethnic group in Myanmar.
They fled following attacks by government forces against the KNU
(Karen National Union). Life in the Thai refugee camp is as boring
as it was in the village.
The Thai police forbid the refugees from going outside the
37
�camp because they do not have a Thai passport and are not Thai
citizens. When Thai police see refugees go outside the camp they
would arrest them and put them in the jail. The weekly food rations
for refugees are distributed by UNHCR (United Nations High
Commissioner for Refugees) and include essential items such as
rice and oil.
Rations are only provided to registered residents who are
physically present at the time of distribution. Some people who had
Thai passports were allowed to go outside and make extra money,
and some people work inside the camp so they do not just depend on
the food given by UNHCR. As for my family, we did have a pretty
good life in the camp compared to other families who had just
enough food for each day.
In camp my mom worked for the Women Social Worker
(WSW) organization. The WSW helps single mothers who had been
displaced. They provide a house and food for the mother and her
children. As a WSW my mom made about 350 baht, which is about
12 US dollars.
School in camp was fun, even though it’s made of bamboo
and thatch because I got to be with my friends all the time. However,
I did not like the school system and how the teacher teaches. The
teacher made the students memorize what they teach and never
asked them to understand it. So most of the time students forgot
what they learned the next day.
I did not like to learn back in the camp because at the school
I went to, most of the teachers do not know how to lecture due to
lack of knowledge and education. In 2007 the United Nations started
sponsoring refugee people in Mae La camp. The following year my
38
�parents decided to come to the United States for a better education
and a better life.
At first my mom did not want to come because she was afraid
that life might be more difficult for her and my father since they do
not speak any English. However, for my brother and I to have a
better future, they were willing to face any challenges.
I moved to the United States in 2008. The first two years in
the United States were very tough due to the language barrier. I still
remember how boring it was the first day of my school in the U.S.
because I couldn’t communicate with my classmates and I did not
have any friends.
Everybody in the room only spoke English except for me
and my brother; we felt like strangers from a different planet.
Everything was different from what I had imagined, including how
people talk, act, and dress. I thought life would be easier and school
will be fun but it wasn’t. Besides this, my family encountered culture
shock, so we were afraid to go outside the house and thought police
might arrest us if they saw us going outside, since this had happened
to my family back in the Thai refugee camp.
After a year in the United States I made a new friend because
I could speak enough English to communicate with them. As time
passed on, I had overcome this struggle. However, as for my parents,
it is hard for them to learn a new language and find a good paying
job. So, in my house I play the role similar to head of household. I
am responsible for writing monthly bills, rent, and all the paper
work my family receives from the mail. I am doing all this because
my parents are trusting in me since they cannot speak the language.
At this moment I had come to realize how important education is
3
9
�and understand that it is the path to my better life.
High school was the best experience in my life because I
learned a lot about making new friends. During my high school
years, I discovered my interest in things I want to do in the future. I
got involved in after-school clubs and became part of a sports team.
Besides this, I volunteer at SayDaNar Development Center and at
the International Institute. Doing this helps me to improve my
confidence and language skills.
Last but not least, I am a sophomore student at MCC
(Middlesex Community College) and hoping to transfer to a fouryear college afterward. I want to become a nurse because I enjoy
nurturing sick people. In general I also love to help people as well.
At the moment I have to finish my prerequisite in order to get into a
nursing program at MCC. It is going to be a long and hard process
because of limited spaces available for nursing students, but I am
ready to fight for my dream and a better life.

�Bawi Ka Zham
“Everything I know about morality and the obligation of
men, I learned from football (soccer)”
– Albert Camus
In July of 2007, I made a list of goals I hoped to achieve for
my family and what I wanted for the lives of my five young cousins.
My ambition was unwavering, yet I prepared myself for the
possibility of many difficulties. One of these obstacles was severe
poverty.
My personal goals stood as a testament to the love and
obligation I felt towards my family. This deep commitment to
succeed for my family and myself was inspired by loss. I lost the
person whom I loved and needed the most in the world. I was twelve
years old when I lost my grandmother, living in Aasaw Village,
Myanmar. Aasaw is a small village located on a mountain ridge
without electricity, running water, and education.
Only thirty percent of children attend school. Of that thirty
percent, only five to ten percent graduate from high school I used all
45
�my strength and my need to survive by hiking 45 miles to the border
of India in order to hunt and sell what I caught to pay for school.
When I lost my grandmother, I decided to leave the country because
I could not bear to walk past the place where she was buried. Each
time I walked past was a cold reminder of my beloved grandmother’s
hope to stay alive until I grew up and could care for myself.
Even though my life was full of misery, I realized it was not
the end. My childhood may have met an abrupt ending, but instead
I began to plan for the future, for my cousins and for myself. My list
included: leaving Myanmar, going to Malaysia, finding a job and
most importantly, attending a university.
In 2008, it was time for me to leave Myanmar and go to
Malaysia. My mother was not there to take care of me, and my uncle
had five children to send to school. If I had stayed, I would have
been forced into child labor, or I would have become a soldier for
the Burmese Army. I had to leave. When I finally got to Malaysia, I
worked twelve hours a day, seven days a week. I did not have the
time, the money or the opportunity to attend school. I lived with
thirty people in one apartment so that I only had to pay fifty RM,
about fifteen U.S. dollars, each month.
Working on my own and living in a crowded apartment, I
thought of my cousins, my grandmother and of the countless times I
played soccer with my family. Thoughts of my family and my village
overwhelmed me, but also led me to stark realizations. I always
knew that I loved my family. I realized that we also needed each
other to succeed. It is impossible to score a goal for the team without
passing the ball to each other.
I sent back most of the money I made in Malaysia to my
42
�cousins so they were able to remain in school. In 2011, six students
graduated from high school in Aasaw. Five of them were my cousins!
I was very proud.
I am a firm believer that we must take turns passing the ball
and scoring the goals. They scored that goal for our community, and
I assisted them by passing the ball. I worked and I ran for the
opportunity to help my family and we won!
Many things have changed since I first played soccer with
my family, but this ideology continues to guide me today. With it in
mind, I aspire to complete the last wish on my list – attend a
university.
Knowing against all odds that I can accomplish anything I
set my mind to, I will not only attend a university, but graduate with
an engineering degree. Then, I will say thank you to my family, my
teachers, and my friends, who helped me achieve my goals.
43
�Mee Reh
My name is Mee Reh, I am 24 years old. I came from
Myanmar to Thailand as a refugee in 2010. I would like to explain
about my autobiography and educational history. English is my
second language and I am not good in reading and writing or
speaking. I attended school for 9 years in the refugee camp. I learned
how to write and read while I was living in the camp.
There are many people like me facing the same situation as
well, more than 50,000 people who live in the camp and couldn’t get
out because we weren’t allow to go out of the camp. And we never
had enough food, not enough health care and not enough education.
UNHCR provided a clinic and school for us but not enough. Back
home in Myanmar, I had not been in any situation that my parents
always complained about, because they had been ruled by a military
government.
I was only about 5 years old when my family decided to run
away from the military. After facing many difficult situations in our
life, we were looking for a better life and decided to come to the
United States. I have been attending school in the United States for
44
�4 years now. I have been learning how to write, read and speak in
English. To be honest, I couldn’t speak any English when I arrived
in the U.S. but I always pushed myself to be challenged. I speak 3
different languages (Karenni, Burmese and English).
One particularly good experience I had in my past education
is with the subject English. I love to learn English, because the
English language can change my life to live in the United States. I
really like America, because I have more freedom, healthcare and
education. I love to live in the United States.
I know by myself that I have to study hard and work hard to
be a good academic student. I always give plenty of time to learn
more and more and I am ready to challenge myself.
One particularly bad experience I had previously was that I
came to the United States very late. When I got to the United States,
I was already 17 years old and started to learn English when I was
17. That was really the worst experience I ever had studying in my
life in the United States. But I never gave up. I understand that to
start with the beginning is a good start, and it is good to have a
strong foundation.
In 2010, I started school in the United States at Lowell High
School and I loved Lowell High because I had a chance to study
with all students from across the world. It was very good to learn
with international students. I have been learning reading and writing
from high school through college.
I didn’t know that America had so many different cultures or
religions before I came to the United States. But now I truly know
and I love to present my culture. I won’t ever forget about my culture
and I won’t ever forget where my story began.
45
�Say Paw
I came to the United States when I was 14 years old. I was
born and raised in a refugee camp at Thailand. However, my parents
are originally from Burma. There was nothing much that I know
about Burma since I did not live there, but I did know how we
struggled to live in the camp.
My father started to tell me his story when I was around nine
years old. At that time, I was surprised and understood right away
why my parents had to live in Thailand as a refugee people. It is not
easy to live in the camp or in the United States. My family had to
overcome obstacles both in the camp and the United States, in
different situations.
I remember my father told me that the reason why he came
to the camp was not because he wanted to. They had to flee from the
Burmese military, which came and burned their houses and land and
then killed the people who did not have a chance to escape. My
father had to run all the time and hide inside the forest until he got
to the border of Thailand. He started his new journey as a refugee
person in Thailand.
46
�Living in a Thai refugee camp was not easy. There are many
camps that were in Thailand. I believe people faced different
experiences living in the camp, but for my family, it was not easy.
The house that my family lived in was built of bamboo and thatch.
The house was not a problem to us at all, but other things could be a
problem.
For instance, the Thai government in charge of us did give us
rice and other food to eat. The thing was, that we couldn’t eat the
same food everyday. My father needed to have a job, so he could
buy us delicious food. We did not get to eat good food as we wished.
At the rainy time, my family planted vegetables and sold them to
others. That is how my family made money.
The second reason was that we could not go out and get jobs
freely in Thailand. We were just living there as refugee people, not
as residents of Thailand. We did not have permission to go outside
freely. My family wanted to be able to eat delicious food and wear
nice clothes, but we did not have the money. When we really needed
money, my dad secretly went out and found a job to work.
After my family got free from living in the camp, we came
to the United States. But we still had to face problems. My family
and I had never lived in a city. My first year in Lowell was terrible
and the major problem that we faced was language. I am sure that
my parents had to face a lot of stuff while living in Lowell.
However, as a student, I had to go through all the process of
attending school and getting to meet new friends. During my first
day of school, I felt so nervous and worried. The teacher talked to
me and I did not understand what they said. I also felt afraid while
sitting in the classroom. And I wish that I could just go back to the
47
�camp instead of living in America.
Everything got much better after two years of living in
Lowell. As a student, I learned English faster than my parents so I
used my basic English to translate for them when they had an
appointment. Sometimes, I explained to my parents about their mail.
I felt less stress when I first arrived in Lowell. It is not easy for me
to go through all this especially when I did not know any English.
However, I worked hard and tried my best in school so that I could
help my parents.
As a child, I went to school everyday but I did not get to
learn the English language. I only got to learn my native language.
For me, it is tough to live in the camp because we did not get to see
the real world. We just lived there as a survivor and we worked hard
to make our life better. When we came to the United States, it was
hard to adjust and learn new things at first.
Over time, my family got used to living here. I am glad to be
in United State because I have freedom. There is more opportunity
for us to earn money than there was in the camp. Nowadays, I still
try to learn more English and I still struggle with English grammar,
vocabulary and sentences. But I think it is much better than in the
camp.

�Stories from SayDaNar Casework
James Aung
I came to the United States as a refugee in 2008, and was
originally resettled in Boston. I got a job, and moved to Lowell. I
saw that many refugees from Burma were struggling due to their
language barrier and lack of knowledge of the system. I started
volunteering to help them as much as I could. I went on home visits
to help them, and tried to get the families’ needs. I took them to their
appointments.
Whenever they called me, I tried my best to go and help
them. However, realizing that I couldn’t help their problems by
myself alone, I reached out to other Burmese community members
who have been here for many years. Our group tried to help and
support the refugees from Burma, and finally formed SayDaNar
Community Development Center. Here are some stories from my
experiences helping the community.

When one of the community leaders, Mrs. Wah (not her real
name) told me that her family was moving to St. Paul, Minnesota, I
was so sad. I didn’t want the family to move. She and her husband
are very active and always help other people. I asked why they
decided to move to St. Paul. I was very confused because they were
doing well.
Both husband and wife had full time jobs at the same
company and they had a car, which the husband drove to their work

everyday. Their work was more or less a 30 minutes drive from their
apartment. The family was also almost ready to buy a house and
even enrolled in Individual Development Account (IDA), through
which a family can get up to $8000: the family saving up to $4000
and the matched money from the program up to $4000, to buy a house.
The family doesn’t need to pay the money back since it is a
government program to assist refugees. Mrs. Wah told me that her
sister’s family was coming from Thailand to resettle in the U.S soon.
Her sister wanted her eldest daughter to go to a high school. Mrs.
Wah worried that her niece might not be able to enroll in the high
school here since she is almost 18 years old.
The high school here in this area doesn’t allow the registration
of any young adults who are 18 years and older. In St. Paul, however,
she said that high schools accept young adults up to 21 years. She
also said that her sister is a single mother with three children and
doesn’t speak English so she needs to support her sister because she
will be struggling in the system due to her language barrier and lack
of knowledge. I felt really bad because I wasn’t able to help very
much, and knew that the family had to restart their lives again from
the beginning.
61
�The family withdrew their IDA savings account and lost an
opportunity to buy a house and moved to St. Paul in July 2014. After
a few weeks, Mrs. Wah called me to let me know that her husband
got a job at an egg farm, which was more than a 2 hour drive from
their home, so he couldn’t come back home everyday.
He stayed near his work and shared an apartment with his
colleagues, and came back home once a week. She said that her
family wasn’t very happy in Minnesota and wanted to come back to
Massachusetts. Her sister’s family from Thailand came to the U.S.
in March, 2015. Her eldest niece was able to enroll in a high school
in St. Paul and started grade 9.
I was so happy when Mrs. Wah told me that her family as
well as her sister’s family would like to move back to Massachusetts.
However, she wanted to make sure that her niece would be able to
enroll in a high school because her niece turned 18 last April. I told
her that since her niece was in grade 9, she should be able to register
in the high school here.
However, I told her that I would double check with the public
schools. I reached out to a staff from the public schools to find out
about it and I was told that the student should be fine since the public
schools should accept any student up to 21 years old. I let Mrs. Wah
know about it so she decided to come back. She asked me to buy air
tickets for her families as well as to rent an apartment for her family
and her sister family.
I bought flight tickets for the end of June, 2015 and rented a
four bedroom apartment for her family. We also set up furniture at
the apartment before they came. We went to pick them up at Boston
Logan Airport on the day that they came.
Mrs. Wah took her niece to register at the high school in the
62
�middle of July, 2015. However, her niece was refused registration
because she wouldn’t be able to graduate from high school when she
turns 22. Mrs. Wah asked me for help so I contacted the staff that I
reached out to before from the public schools administrative office
and explained the situation.
I was told that the student has the right to be in the school
until she is 21. The staff contacted the high school registration office
then she asked me to tell the family to go back to register. The family
went there the next day, and the student was able to register. She
took an assessment test and was told that she would start from grade
9.
However, in the beginning of August, 2015, the student went
to the high school registration office again since she didn’t hear
anything from the high school. She was told that the High School
Headmaster refused to let her enroll due to her age, since she
wouldn’t be able to graduate at 22. I contacted the staff and explained
about the problem.
The staff said that she would contact the assistant superintendent office regarding the issue. In September, I heard back from the
staff and they told me that the assistant superintendent said that the
student would not be able to go to high school due to her age.
It was suggested that I should file a complaint to the
Department of Education (DOE). I asked the mother and the student
to see if they agreed to file a complaint. With their permission, I filed
a complaint. A staff member from DOE got back to me the next day
and asked me some questions to clarify the story. Then he said he
would contact the public school.
The next day, I got a call from the public school attorney. He
said that he looked into the case and the student never requested for
63
�an appeal. I told him that the client didn’t know and just came to the
U.S. a few months ago. The attorney said that the superintendent
would take her complaint as an appeal for her case. He said the
superintendent has looked at the case and reconsidered that she
should be allowed to attend high school.
He told me to inform the student to come to the high school
to be enrolled tomorrow. The student and her mother went to the
high school the next day. Everything went well, and she was able to
start her school right away on the same day.
This has been an ongoing problem for refugee youth who
are over 18 and were denied enrollment in high school due to their
ages, not only refugees from Burma but also other refugees from
different populations. Some refugee families from Burma moved
out of state because their children were not allowed to enroll in high
school.
It doesn’t just happen in one city since I also saw some cases
in other areas as well. A refugee girl from Burma in another city also
faced the same problem when she tried to register to enroll in high
school. She was denied and not allowed to attend high school. She
was told to go to an ESL class and get her GED if she wanted to
continue her education. She asked me for help so I got involved, and
went through the same process. After my unsuccessful advocacy
with the Parent Information Center as well as the Superintendent
office in the city, I finally filed a complaint to the Department of
Education with the girl and her mother’s permission.
The girl was allowed to attend the high school after DOE got
involved. However, I received a letter from the Superintendent,
which states that the decision not to allow her to attend high school
was the right one, therefore, the girl should go to an ESL class to
64
�earn her GED. What surprised me was even though I received that
letter, which confirmed their previous decision, the school also
allowed her to attend high school.
After she was able to attend high school, I got a call from
someone who is helping the African community. She said her refugee
community also faces the same problem. It is a gray area, and public
schools administrative staff make decisions based on what they
think will be the best for their schools, not what is the best for the
students. Although a staff from DOE told me that it is a law that
public schools should allow students who are under 21 to enroll in
high school, neither I nor the DOE staff could find this detail.
Unemployment benefits
Even though everyone is enjoying the summer, refugees
from Burma are struggling to pay their rent. Every year, the sewing
company that many refugees from Burma work in closes for two
weeks. Workers are asked to apply for unemployment benefits.
Depending on the years each individual has worked at the factory,
clients will get paid either for one week or for two weeks.
The ones who have been with the company at least two years
and over usually get paid for two weeks so they don’t need to apply.
However, the company closed for three weeks this last August, so
everyone who worked for the company tried to apply unemployment
benefits as no one gets paid for the third week.
The workers are given information where they can ask for
help to apply for the benefits at a local career center. They can also
apply over the phone or online. Due to being computer illiterate and
having a language barrier, clients usually go in person to the center.
65
�The career center used to help clients to apply for the
unemployment benefits; however, the office doesn’t do this anymore
since a couple of years ago, due to budget cuts from the government.
The center will give a piece of paper to any one who walks in to
their office that explains how to apply for unemployment benefits
either online or over the phone. Clients will always come back to me
to apply for their benefits.
Many clients came to see me to apply for their benefits in
August. The new ones were easier. I just needed to go to the website
and create accounts and apply for benefits for them. The most
difficult cases were the ones who have applied in the past and have
accounts but forgot their passwords. It would not have been easy
even if you speak the language and have computer skills.
Calling the unemployment office is worse than a nightmare.
Whenever I call the phone number, the minimum waiting time is 45
minutes, but I usually have to wait over an hour. I keep waiting and
waiting until someone answers the phone, if I am lucky. Many times,
the line is disconnected before someone picks up the phone or while
I am talking to the staff member after waiting for almost an hour.
A client came to show me a letter that he received from his
company. When I had a look, it was an instruction about how to
apply for unemployment benefits either online or over the phone.
This client had applied for his benefits last year so I tried to help him
to log in to his account in our office computer. However, he forgot
the password of his account so he couldn’t log in.
He also didn’t remember the secret question so I had no
option but to call the call center. I am very reluctant to call the call
center because I knew that I would have to wait at least one hour. I
was right! I kept waiting for about an hour until the line got
66
�automatically disconnected.
I had to ask the client to come back the next week because
the call center closes at 4:30pm and it was already after 4pm so we
would not be able to make it. My office hours are usually in the late
afternoon on Wednesdays and early afternoon on Fridays so I can
only help them to apply on Friday afternoons.
The client came back the following week so I called the call
center again. This time, I was lucky to be able to talk to a staff
member after waiting for over an hour. I explained the problem so
the staff verified with the client over the phone and sent a link to
reset the password. Finally, I was able to help the client to log in to
his account and open a claim for his unemployment benefit. He was
notified that he would receive his benefit of over $300.
He came back after a few weeks because he didn’t receive
his benefit, which he was supposed to receive. I helped him to log
into his account and to see if he missed anything. Finally, I had to
call the call center phone number again because there was nothing
wrong with his claim. Again, I had to wait over one hour before a
staff member answered.
The staff member said that the check was sent to a wrong
address so I gave him the correct address. However, both the client
and I were confused because the client never moved to the address
that the staff member mentioned. I was also told to call a phone
number to request the check be sent to the correct address. I called
the number and talked to a staff member but he said that I was calling
the wrong department.
He told me to call the main number. I didn’t have enough
time to call the main number since it was around 4 pm already so I
asked the client to come back next week. The client has come to see
67
�me to make the phone call every Friday. However, we have not been
lucky enough to talk to a staff since nobody picked up the phone
even though we waited for over an hour each time. The telephone
line was always disconnected. The client was even saying that the
government does it purposely so that people will give up applying
for the benefits. It has been almost two months already but the client
has not been able to receive his check yet.
When I met with a staff member from the career center, he
told me that now there are only three places across Massachusetts
answering all the calls. As a result, people have a very long waiting
time. He suggested to me that it was better to do it online. I explained
to him most of my clients are computer illiterate on top of their
language barrier. I asked him if his office can help when the clients
come in for help. He said the clients could use the computers in his
office and his staff could help clients and explain how to apply
online.
However, he said that he didn’t have enough staff to go
through the whole process of applying for the unemployment
benefits. Every year, many of them struggle to receive their
unemployment benefits and most of them have given up applying
due to the difficulties.
Medical Bills
One of the Burmese refugees who doesn’t speak English
came to see me today. He brought a medical bill that was for a
doctor’s visit back in August, 2015. He said he didn’t understand
why he received the bill because he had medical insurance, and he
paid the co-payment during his visit. I called the phone number on
68
�the bill, and found out that it was from a specialist clinic.
I was told that the clinic needed to have a referral from the
patient’s primary care physician (PCP), which the patient didn’t
bring. I called his PCP office and requested them to send a referral
to the specialist office so that his visit could be billed to the medical
insurance. The staff member who does referrals told me that his
doctor didn’t know about the appointment, and plus it was out of the
time frame, which is 90 days, so the insurance won’t accept the
referral even if the doctor sends one.
I explained that this client was referred by his PCP to this
specialist in the past, and that is why he got a follow-up appointment.
The staff looked into the system and found out that his PCP did refer
him to the specialist back in 2014. The staff member explained to
me that the patient never came back to inform his PCP that he went
to see the specialist back in 2014.
Therefore, even when the patient got another follow- up
appointment from the same specialist in 2015, his PCP wasn’t aware
about the appointment. Now it is over the 90 days period, so the
insurance won’t pay for his visit; therefore, he will have to pay for it
from his own money. The staff member also told me that the patient
needs to come back to inform his PCP every time he sees other
doctors so that his PCP is aware of all the issues and can follow up
as needed. I feel really bad for the client because it is not his fault
that he went to see the specialist. He didn’t make the appointment
with the specialist’s office. And he didn’t know that he needed to
bring a referral or had to go back to inform his PCP about his visit.
Why did the specialist see him in the first place if he didn’t bring a
referral? Why wasn’t he informed that he has to bring a referral
when he got the appointment?
69
�Even though any health care providers receiving funds from
the government are required by law to provide an interpreter for
patients with limited English proficiency, private doctors, who do
not receive funds from the government, are not required to provide
interpreters for patients. When refugees’ primary care physicians
refer their refugee patients to see specialists for further evaluation
regarding their health problems, refugee patients struggle to get the
services from specialists due to the language barrier. However,
refugees are still new to this area, and don’t know where to go. In
addition, refugees are required to bring their own interpreter. When
refugees can’t find anyone to translate for them, they simply just
don’t show up for their appointments.
If providers are able to provide interpreters, not only will the
refugees have a better understanding about their health, but also the
providers will be able to treat their refugee patients more effectively,
because the refugee patients will be able to follow the providers’
instructions. As refugees are able to evaluate their health problems
with specialists, they are more likely to be able to prevent themselves
from getting sick. Therefore, the refugees will become healthier, as
a result, their health care consumption will go down and so will their
health care expenses in the long run.
Electric bills
Recently, many new electric companies were trying to get
new customers. Their representatives worked very aggressively to
get new customers for their companies. One time, I saw one of the
sale representatives was knocking on the front door of an apartment
very hard and didn’t stop until the door was opened. I have seen the
70
�same kind of situation many times among refugees from Burma.
Each time, I had to call the electric companies to cancel their
contracts, which they didn’t even know that they had signed up for
until they received welcome letters in the mail. When they brought
those letters to me for translation, they all were very upset after they
found out the truth.
A client, who has limited English, came to see me with a
letter that he received from an electric company. The letter was
welcoming him as a new customer. He was kind of confused by the
letter because, he said, he never applied for electric service from that
company. After a short conversation, I found out that a lady knocked
on his door, and tried to talk to him in English a few weeks ago.
He didn’t understand what the lady was talking about besides
the word “electric,” because he understood the word “electric” in
her talking. He gave his electric bill because the lady was asking to
show it to her. He just said sometimes “yes” and sometimes “no”
during the conversation, even though he didn’t fully understand
what the lady was talking about.
I explained to him that the new electric company was offering
him a lower rate, compared to his previous company’s regular rate.
However, the rate that he receives from his previous company is
lower than the new company is offering because he got a discount
rate due to his income and his family size. Finally, he understood
what the lady was talking about.
I called the electric company, explained the whole situation,
and cancelled the service because the client wanted me to do so. I
explained to him that in the future if he doesn’t understand anything,
do not say “yes” or sign anything, even if he understands and doesn’t
want it. The families could have forced the sale representatives to
71
�leave but they didn’t do it. On top of the language barrier, due to
coming from war torn zones and living under a military government,
many refugees from Burma are afraid to speak up for their rights.
They are always afraid to deal with anyone who has power.
Citizenship applications
Today I helped one of the clients for his citizenship
application. I still remember that he didn’t speak a single word of
English when he came to the United States in 2009. Now he is so
eager to take his citizenship. He always comes to the citizenship
class on Saturdays at the SayDaNar office. Sometimes, other people
may miss class but he never does.
He is so determined and works very hard to earn his
citizenship. Regardless of his English language barrier, he tries his
best to learn the 100 civic questions and all the information from
the citizenship application so that he would be able to pass the
interview and become a citizen of the United States. I am so glad to
have a chance to support his dream.
There are many people in the community from Burma in
Lowell. Many of them are due to apply for their citizenship.
However, not many of them are willing to study for the citizenship
test. Their excuse is that the test is so hard because they don’t speak
English. However, I don’t think it is true. They just give up learning
and don’t want to study because they think that they are too old to
learn. I can’t wait for the day that this gentleman passes the test
and becomes a citizen of the United States. He will be a very good
example for the rest of the community that it is never too late to
learn and if people work hard enough, they can achieve their dream!
72
�Travel Documents
Today, one of my clients came to see me and said that he was
going to New York to pick up his travel document for a trip to
Thailand. He has never been to New York, so he is going with one
of his Karenni friends so that he won’t get lost. He has been here in
Lowell for only over a year so he is not eligible to apply for a
passport since he is not a citizen of the United States. However, he
can apply for a Refugee Travel Document to travel outside of the
country. The reason that he is going to Thailand is to see and support
his wife, who has been depressed since her daughter died. His
daughter died a few months ago due to lack of medication in the
camp.
I helped him with his travel document application at the
United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) and
visa application at the Thai Embassy in New York. When he
submitted his application, he also put a prepaid envelope for return
postage, but the embassy said that they never received the prepaid
envelope. He purchased a plane ticket and his flight is on March 9,
2016. However, I had told him that he didn’t need to buy a ticket for
his visa application, because I called the Thai Embassy to find out
whether he would need a ticket for the visa application or not. I was
told that a ticket was not required, but he bought it anyway because
his friend said he needed it.
Sometimes, people trust more the information that they
receive from their friends. In this case, he wouldn’t even need to go
to New York to pick up his document if he hadn’t bought his flight
ticket. He could have found another way to get his document back.
Now, due to his flight schedule, he doesn’t dare take a chance to
73
�wait and decided to go to New York to get his document so that he
will be ready to travel by March 9th.
Proof of residency
One of my clients brought a letter from Mass Health, which
states that he and his wife need to submit their proof of residency in
order to be eligible for health insurance. The family has been here
for almost 5 years and their status has not changed. They have lived
where they were since they arrived in the U.S. They also had
submitted the same verification in the past for a few times but Mass
Health still was asking them to submit the same information again
and again.
The letter also described a list of acceptable letters for the
proof of residency, including utility bills, pay stubs from the last 60
days, mortgage or lease; but the wife has none of those. All the
utility bills as well as the lease are in her husband’s name. She used
to work but had to quit her job due to her medical condition, and
now her husband is the only person working in the household.
Therefore, she can’t provide her pay stubs either. I suggested
the husband ask his wife to go to the city hall to request a proof of
residency letter. The city issues the letter and charges $3 per person.
He can then submit this letter to Mass Health.
I have seen this kind of situation many times when clients
are asked to submit some verification to determine their eligibility
by government agencies. It is reasonable that the government
agencies will need to verify the information to determine the
eligibility. However, it is a big challenge for refugees, especially, the
newcomers, because refugees don’t have any of the acceptable
74
�verification forms that are listed. It will create extra stress for the
refugees on top of all the challenges that they are facing in the new
countries.
401 K
One client, who wanted to enroll in a 401 K retirement plan,
asked me to help. She said that her company told her to call a phone
number in order to enroll in the program. She doesn’t speak English
so I called the phone number that was given to her. I explained the
situation to the associate from the financial firm and requested a
Karen interpreter. The associate asked me to verify her information
and whether I could assist with the interpretation.
Even though I requested an interpreter, he didn’t call an
interpreter but went back and forth with me to verify my client’s
information. I told him that I don’t speak the client’s mother tongue,
so finally, he told us to hold while he was trying to get an interpreter.
When the interpreter came on the phone, he spoke the language that
we didn’t understand, so I intervened and asked the interpreter what
language he speaks.
The interpreter said that he speaks Korean so we told him as
well as the financial representative that we were looking for a Karen
interpreter, not a Korean interpreter. I had a feeling that this would
happen because the representative didn’t pay attention when I was
telling him the name of the language. From my experience, it
happens a lot because Karen and Korean are very similar, plus most
of the people are more familiar with Korean, but not Karen.
The representative told us to hold so we waited. We were on
hold for a while but didn’t hear anything, and finally we found out
that he hung up on us. We were so frustrated with the situation but
75
�we didn’t have enough time to call back again. I asked my client to
come back next week to call the financial firm again.
The following week, she came back so I called the same
phone number, and got a representative from the firm on the phone.
I explained to her that my client wanted to enroll in the program and
needed a Karen interpreter. She told us to wait and called a Karen
interpreter right away. She got a Karen interpreter and was able to
help the client. Finally, the client was able to enroll in the program.
Even though a company has the same rules and policies, it still
depends on employees who provide the services directly to the
clients. For example, from the experience with this financial firm,
even if it is required for employees to provide language support for
any client who has the language barrier, some employees don’t want
to provide it because it is not convenient for them. This makes it
much harder for the clients.
Specialist referral
Today, I helped one of my clients who has been referred to a
specialist. She came to show me a letter from her health clinic,
which states that she needs to call the specialist’s office to make an
appointment. The client doesn’t speak English and doesn’t know
where the specialist’s office is.
I called and made an appointment for her, and then translated
the paper and explained to her where she needs to go, and gave her
the address so that her husband can take her there. I also requested
an interpreter for her so that she will have no communication barrier
when she meets the specialist, and better understand what is going
on with her and what kind of follow up she will need to do
76
�afterwards.
In the past, the clinic staff called and made appointments for
patients, then informed the patients about their appointments.
However, they stopped doing it. I called the clinic staff member who
refers patients to specialists the first time, and I found out that clients
received letters to call the specialist’s office to make appointments.
I asked how could the clinic expect their patients to call to make an
appointment.
The staff said the specialists’ offices didn’t allow the clinic
staff to make appointments anymore because many patients that the
clinic booked didn’t show up, so the clinic lost money.
That is the gap that we have in the system. Patients will be
unlikely to call and go to see the specialists due to the language
barrier and not knowing where to go. Then what will happen? Their
primary care physicians may think that the patients have gone to see
the specialists.
The ones who suffer will be the patients. Their health
problems may become worse and some clients may end up going to
emergency rooms and staying in hospitals. As a result, not only may
they may lose their income, but also our health care spending will
increase. We could have prevented this kind of unnecessary cost, but
it is not happening.
Gastrointestinal (GI) Test
at the Lowell General Hospital (LGH)
Today, one of my clients came to show me his GI appointment
letter from a hospital. The letter explains in detail what the patient
77
�needs to do before the test. According to the letter, my client will
need to go and get three different over the counter medications.
Then he will need to mix them and drink it several times during the
night before the test.
He is also not allowed to eat or drink until his test is done the
next morning. It really surprises me that the provider thinks the
patient will understand the procedure. I also assume that his primary
care physician will request an interpreter for his appointment,
therefore, the provider at the hospital should know his English level.
In addition, it is not his first GI appointment because when I was
trying to explain about the complicated process, he told me that he
already went there for the GI test in the past.
However, the provider couldn’t do the test because he didn’t
drink the liquid, which needs to be mixed with medication. Without
using an interpreter to explain the procedure, how is the patient
going to understand clearly what he needs to do before the test?
Even if he understands what he needs to do, how he is going to get
all the three different over the counter medications from a pharmacy?
Even if he gets all the medication, how is he going to make sure that
medication is mixed properly and he drinks it accordingly? If he
fails any of these requirements, the provider will not be able to
perform the test again when he goes for his appointment. That will
have a negative outcome for the patient, the hospital and finally even
the government. The hospital will also lose its revenue. The patient
will not be treated and followed up on as needed in a timely manner,
which may have a negative impact on his health.
Therefore, the government may have to spend more for his
well being in the future. All these things could have been prevented
by simply making a nurse visit before the test, ordering all the
78
�medication to be ready in the office, and explaining to the patient
how to mix it and how often he needs to take it. Then the patient will
have a very clear understanding about the procedure and will be able
to follow the instructions. Then the test could be done without any
problem.
This is not my first experience. I had a very similar situation
with a different client in the past who called me and said that she got
a call from a phone number, however, she didn’t understand. She
asked me to call back that number to find out what it was all about.
When I called the phone number, I was told that she had a GI
appointment at the hospital and needed to pick up medication before
the appointment. She has been in the U.S. for a few months and
speaks no English. Besides, she had no idea where the hospital was.
I had to take her to the hospital and pick up the medication, and
explain to her how to take it. Finally, she was able to make it for her
appointment. About 90% of the refugees from Burma came from a
rural area. Everything here is so different from where they came
from. Preventive care is not something that the refugees ever
practiced in their lives until they came to the U.S. They never go to
see a doctor unless they are sick, therefore, having tests to find out
what is going on with their bodies is uncommon practice for them.
Moreover, due to the language barrier, clients are reluctant to
seek help even if they are sick. Refugees already have stress due to
all the challenges in the new country. On top of that, the language
barrier also causes stress for refugees because of not being able to
express and communicate with others effectively. Many preventable
health problems are not prevented in refugee populations due to a
gap in the system, which is caused by the communication barrier.
79
�Youth Volunteer
Recently, I got a Karenni youth volunteer to help me with
casework. He is studying at Middlesex Community College (MCC)
now. When he came to the U.S. six years ago, he was only 19 years
old. However, he wasn’t allowed to go to high school due to his age.
He was told to go to adult education, where he registered and studied
for almost four years.
I told him in the beginning that he should go to MCC,
because he finished grade ten in the refugee camp. I explained to
him that even if he was not allowed to study at the college level, he
could start at the ESL level, and then he could eventually move up
to the college level. However, he didn’t have enough confidence to
go to college so he remained in adult education.
Last year, I talked to him again about going to MCC. I told
him that he didn’t have to pay for his tuition fee since he would be
eligible for financial aid. This time he listened to me, so I showed
him how to fill out a financial aid application. I also told him to go
to MCC to take a placement test. He finally went there, and took a
placement test.
Then when the semester began, he started with an ESL class
and a math class. Since then, he has been at MCC. Now, he is getting
into college level courses and starting to choose his major. I am very
glad that he is going to be in college, and even going to a university
when he graduates from MCC. I was also able to recruit a Karen
youth who is studying at MCC. They both have been helping me to
assist families.

�We can all be together!
Today, we cleaned the SayDaNar office. We didn’t have a
chance to organize all the stuff in the new office since we moved in.
I asked some community members to help with the cleaning. Most
of the community members who come to volunteer at SayDaNar are
from different ethnic groups from Burma. Moreover, they all have
different religions. Some are Buddhists, some are Christians and
some are Muslim.
Most of them have never had a chance to meet people from
different ethnic groups for a long enough time to get to know them
until they came here. Even now, they may still be within their
groups most of the time, but they always come together when I ask
them to help with any of the SayDaNar events. It seems like
SayDaNar serves as a common place for all of them to come
together. They talk, make jokes and laugh while volunteering
together for SayDaNar. It is very nice to see them getting along
and working together.
We have eight main ethnic groups in Burma. A civil war has
been going on between the majority Burmese and other different
minority ethnic groups for over half of the last century. There are
also tensions among ethnic groups. Sometimes, even the ethnic arm
groups fight each other. We all suffer from the civil war regardless
81
�of which ethnic group we belong to.
People, for sure, have different personalities, and it will be
very difficult to bring everybody together. However, if we are given
a chance and enough time to get to know each other, I am sure we
can definitely find ways to live together. If we can get along with
each other here, why not in Burma?
It is very important to understand that the process is more
important than the outcome. Everyone prefers the best result.
However, in my opinion, without being able to bring everyone in the
group together, we are unlikely to get the best result even if we get
grade A. Besides, without respecting each other, we will not be able
to work together. How do we define the best result?
Is getting grade A without the bonding among the students in
the group better than getting grade B with the bonding among the
students working together to achieve the same goal or vice versa?
People have different personalities and expectations. We can’t
expect everyone to be the same.
We all need to find ways to compromise with each other to
be able to work together. It is also very important for us not to judge
other people without knowing what is going on in their lives. We
need to be aware that different people have different skill sets and
weaknesses. Things that can be easily accessible for someone may
not be easy for other people.
Refugees from Burma are struggling in Lowell. They have
difficulty becoming self-sufficient due to the language barrier and
not being able to navigate the system. Since there is no other
agency that provides long-term support for refugees from Burma to
become self-sufficient in Lowell, the services that they receive
from SayDaNar make their lives much easier. They will not feel
abandoned and hopeless but supported because there is a place that
they can always go for help.
82
�Many of them really appreciate it, and are willing to volunteer
to support SayDaNar whenever they can. It is a place where every
ethnic group from Burma in Lowell comes and works together, and
gets to know each other better. If everyone is given a chance to get
to know each other, I am sure most of us will have better
understanding about others; therefore, our society will be more
peaceful. There will also be less burden on the whole society as
individuals become self-sufficient.
Because of SayDaNar, other organizations in Lowell that
have been struggling to support new refugees, due to the new
languages as well as new culture, get to know more about the
refugees from Burma as well as these refugees’ needs. Therefore,
these organizations are able to find ways to serve the refugees from
Burma. As a result, both sides: the providers and the refugees, will
benefit, as well as the society as a whole.
SayDaNar is a community-based organization. We do not
have any budget to run SayDaNar. Our community members come
together to raise funds that we need for SayDaNar by selling
Burmese food at the Burmese Food Fair, Lowell Folk Festival and
Southeast Asian Water Festival. We especially rely on UMass Lowell
volunteer students to run our afterschool program, which is mutually
beneficial for both the refugees and the UMass Lowell students.
As a student at UMass Lowell, I am very grateful to have a
chance to combine my volunteer work with my education. I am
also happy to raise awareness about refugees from Burma in
Lowell. It has been a great pleasure to see the connection between
UMass Lowell and the communities in Lowell. As this connection
grows, both UMass Lowell and the communities can benefit from
each other. In the future, I would like to see UMass Lowell have
more collaborations with different communities in Lowell.

�Burmese Refugees
Face Challenges in
Their New Homeland
By Nyan Lynn
LOWELL - When she heard the news that
her family was chosen and granted
permission to go and settle in the U.S., Le
Say was overjoyed and excited, not
knowing what to expect in her future
homeland.
She saw the brutalities of the
military junta back in Karen State in the
eastern part of Myanmar (formerly
known as Burma). Worried about the
future, she left her village and fled to
Thailand in 1997.
84
�Photo - Nyan Lynn
In Thailand, she stayed at a refugee camp. After
staying there for 17 years, she moved to the U.S. with her
husband, children and two sisters.
Life in the U.S. is not as smooth as she expected.
“I was so depressed and downhearted as everything is
quite different from the place I came from,” said 37-yearold Le Say.
85
�Le Say said one of her biggest challenges in the U.S. is not
knowing English.
“As I don’t know this language, I’m still facing a lot of
problems,” she said in her apartment in Lowell, a 45-minute
commuter rail ride from Boston, Massachusetts.
Le Say is not alone. There are thousands of Burmese refugees
in the U.S. for whom English is a big challenge, said aid workers.
“They don’t speak the language. So, language barrier is very,
very challenging for them,” said James Aung, Executive Director of
Saydanar Community Development Center which is helping
Burmese refugees in Lowell.
“Even though they know or they can go to the place, but they
can’t communicate.”
In addition to language problems, refugees have difficulties
integrating into the U.S. culture and navigating its government
systems.
Due to the fighting between the government army and ethnic
armed groups, tens of thousands of ethnic people fled Myanmar and
stayed in refugee camps in Thailand and Malaysia for years. Some
stayed there for more than twenty years before coming to the U.S.
Many others continue to live in the refugee camps, waiting to
be able to settle in other countries while living on food handouts
delivered by humanitarian agencies.
The nature of Burmese refugees is also a barrier to integrating
in a new culture, said Meredith Walsh, Executive Director of
Worcester Refugee Assistance Project (WRAP).
“By and large, they are a shy, introverted community. So they
don’t necessarily go out to make friends with the Americans. When
Americans try to speak to them, they might feel shy,” said Walsh who
86
�has been helping Burmese refugees for years.
Another problem with some refugees is that they are
traumatized because they saw atrocities back in their country.
They still have nightmares.
“I still have fear of SPDC (the junta) in the dream,” said Key
Mhe, 54, who moved to the U.S.
She and her family fled to Thailand in 2000 together with
other villagers from her area in Kayah State, in eastern part of the
country.
While older people like Key Mhe often feel nostalgic
regarding the place they came from, younger people do not find it
hard to embrace the U.S. culture.
Nga Reh, 22, is one of them. He was born and bred in a
refugee camp in Thailand. He did not know how the outside world
looked like.
When he heard he and his family were granted permission to
settle in the U.S., he did not know what to expect exactly. He said he
expected his new home would be much different from the camp
where all of the houses are made of bamboo and thatched roof, but
he wasn’t prepared for much else.
“I was so surprised. There are many buildings here that I
hadn’t seen before,” said Nga Reh in an office of WRAP. “I’m very
fortunate to be in the developed country.”
After being in the U.S. for more than seven years, he is quite
familiar with American culture and he is going to college.
He even has a dream to keep his community safe and secured.
“I want to be a police (officer) one day,” he said with
confidence.

Children
should have
the healthiest
start to life.
Prenatal care
gives children
a head start to
a healthy life.
Prenatal care is
more than just
vitamins. It is regular medical care to help
reduce maternal and infant death and
other preventable problems. One way to
!\!!!!!!!!![!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~!!!!!l!!!!l!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!l!!!!!!!l!l!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~
n
measure a n:iety's overall health is by the
number of babies that die before their
first birthday, also known as, the infant
mortality rate. This number is found by
looking at how many infants die with
every 1,000 babies. Philadelphia's infants
are dying almost double the national
average, ranking us in the second tier in the
world, behind several third world nations.
In Pennsylvania, the state average is
that 7 babies will die for every 1,000 live
births. Philadelphia's infant mortality rate
is 11.4 (11.4 deaths per 1,000 live births)
with African Americans having the highest
of all racial groups at 15.9 (15.9 infant
deaths for every 1,000 live births). In the
areas that infant mortality rates have
improved, it is mostly due to advances in
technology NOT because mothers are
becoming significantly healthier. However,
there are things that women and men can
do to improve these alarming statistics.
Prenatal care is a philosophy that
should start before pregnancy, continue
during, and then extend well after the
baby is born. Before a pregnancy,
women should eat healthy (lots of fruits
and vegetables), NOT smoke, be physically
active, and take vitamins. A baby is growing
weeks before women ever know they are
pregnant so it is vital for women to take
prenatal vitamins, avoid alcohol, and eat
healthy before conception. Prenatal
vitamins have more folic acid in them,
which is an important vitamin needed for
very early nerve growth in the baby.
Folic acid is VERY important. During
pregnancy, continue vitamins, have
immediate and regular visits to the doctor,
limit any exposure to toxins (tobacco, alcohol,
drugs, cleaners, nail salon glue, etc ... ), tell
your doctor about ANY medications you are
taking including herbal medications,
decrease as much stress as possible, and
learn as much as you can about breast feeding.
After the baby, be aware of postpartum
depression, get regular checkups (for
mom and baby), and if possible try to breast
feed (it has many benefits like being free
and strengthens baby's immune system).
Men can help too! Men can help all of
the women they know (significant others,
nieces, daughters, sisters, etc ... ) by encouraging
birth control (avoid unwanted pregnancies),
encourage women to eat healthy, take
vitamins, and get early and regular prenatal
care by a health care provider.
Let's all do our part to make sure the
women in our lives are healthy and motivated
to have the healthiest baby possible:
before, during, and after pregnancy. We
can help our future leaders before they
are ever conceived by being prepared
and by planning ahead.

218- The B uddha then entered Samadhi,
Reaching the ni nth realm of Dhyana, from
the deep ninth dhyana he reced to the realm
of fo urth dhyana. When he had emerged
from thefourth

that he would

Many believe that Khmer Buddhism has
deviated from its traditional roles of moral
education and welfare refuge for poor children
who want to pursue education for their better
future and the future of the society.

Some successful people nowadays used
to live in temple at one time or another for
welfare support and education. Prominent
examples include Prime Minister Hun Sen,
Millionaire Mong Rithy, and scores of others
whom you can identify. In Kampuchea Krom,
Buddhist temple still strongly committed to its
traditional roles as sources of morality and
education. All Khmer Krom seek to learn
Khmer language and culture in the Buddhist
temple. Many of my Khmer Krom friends
have donated selflessly for such great cause.
However, according to some,

Buddhism in Cambodia seems paradoxically
get drown or dormant in materialism. Cambodians
have committed and donated selflessly to
Khmer Buddhist temples but only few temples,
if one's observation is correct, seek to enhance
societal morality and provide welfare refuge
for unfortunate rural and otherwise children
who want to pursue education in cities or
town. Many of these temples have used donated
money to expand temple complex or build
more buildings, and focus more on heavenly
.,
9Cli'bill3 Page.15
needs while many temples especially oversea's
have been apparently misuse the money and
disgrace Buddhism; worse of all, these temples
further divide oversea Khmer communities
that are already fractured by homeland politics.
To some, Khmer Buddhism turns quite
blind eyes on morally misguided. Drug abuse,
gangs violence, power abuse, etc have rampaged Khmer society in our earthly world
while Buddhism focuses apparently too much
on heavenly one. It is obvious that Karma or
Kam-Phal applies to both worlds, earthly and
heavenly. Many bad actions (Kam) are created
now and their societal consequences (Phal) are
now too. Why don't we therefore focus on the
NOW karma? We need to prevent bad actions
from happening in the first place thru education
morally or otherwise for all rich and poor.
There should be no one left behind in education
just because they have no place to stay to pursue
education. This is where Buddhist temples
should help contribute as they have traditionall y
done.
Buddhist temples should revisit their
traditional roles in Khmer society or risk losing
support from younger generation and being
marginalized by other religions who are
strongly committed to earthly causes such as
the needs of the poor and moral imperative.
Temples should create charitable funds or
foundations from million dollars of donated
money to support the poor and unfortunate
children some of whom would become future
leaders and millionaires; the practice would
also help engrain or cherish charitable spirits
and humanity in our future society. Just a
thought!

212-When the King and people of
Kusinagara learned from Ananda that the
Buddha was about to enter Nirvana, they all

wept sadly and
said: "it is too early
for the Buddha to
enter Nirvana. Too
soon is extinguished

Lamenting men,
women and children
flocked to Salavana,
where the Buddha was staying, hoping that
they might see the Buddha once more and
.

express thteir concen for him. People v1s1ted
the Buddha in groups is an orderly manner.
Everybody was unwilling to leave him however.

Subhadra ! The Buddha is very tired, you

But Subhadra was very anxious to see the
Buddha. He pleased again and again, and
Ananda rejected
him again and
again, holding to
the fact that the
Buddha was very
ill and should not
be bothered by anyone. But when the
Buddha heard them
both talking, he knew Subhadra's intentiooruxl

living being under and above the soil.
Our elders would pick up a handful of
and May "as a day to honor mothers
and motherhood." Mother's Day is
being observed on Sunday May 8th in
the US this year.
The modern mothers would find it
difficult to not think about how we
measure up to other parents whether
our own mother who carry a traditional
mother role as a house wife and fulltime care taker of all the children, their
friends and colleagues, or even parents
they see in the media. Unable to help
ourselves, we tend to put constant
pressure on ourselves to be "good
parents" when what we really need to
keep in mind is that it's the simple
connections that our children will
remember and cherish for a lifetime.
Mother's Day would be a perfect time
· to celebrate the little things, the special
moments we have with our children.
So this Sunday, take time to enjoy the
little things that make parenthood so
day become a universal day. It is most special. Wishing all mothers a very
commonly celebrated in March, April, happy Mother's Day!

October 23, 2013
At least 20,000 opposition supporters
made their way to Freedom Park in Phnom
Penh on Wednesday morning to begin the
first of a three-day demonstration designed
to urge signatories of the Paris Peace
Agreement to intetvene in the country's cwrent
political deadlock.
Unlike at the previous protests conducted by the CNRP, the security presence
around the capital was minimal and all
major roads in the city center were open to
traffic.
At about 3:30 p.m., tens of thousands
of CNRP supporters left Freedom Park and
marched to the U.N. Office of the High
Commissioner for Human Rights to hand in
a petition asking officials there to push the
government to conduct an independent
investigation into election irregularities.
After City Hall originally said it would
not allow the CNRP to march, the Ministry
of Interior on Tuesday said it would let
1,000 opposition supporters march through
the city.
On Thursday and Friday, more marches
will take place in order to hand the same
petition to a host of embassies belonging to
countries that signed the 1991 Peace
Agreement, which was signed 22 years ago
today.
At a press conference this morning,
CNRP leaders Sam Rainsy and Kem Sokha
outlined the purpose of the demonstration-an investigation into July's election, binding
electoral reform and government adherence
to the promises within the Paris Peace
Agreements, including guarantees of a liberal
and multi-party democracy.
Since July's contested election, the CPP
has pushed ahead with convening a one-party
National Assembly and forming a new government headed by Prime Minister Hun
Sen, despite an ongoing boycott of parliament
by the 55 elected CNRP lawmakers.
Addressing concerns by the government
that opposition marches and demonstrations
could get out of hand should crowds
become too large, Mr. Rainsy said that the
CNRP could guarantee that its supporters
would not be the cause of violence.
"We ensure that our organization has
taken every measure to ensure that there is
no violence," Mr. Rainsy said.
"If there is violence, it does not come
from us. It comes from elements who want
to provoke," he said, adding that the CNRP
would cooperate with government authorities
to ensure that outside elements do not disturb
the opposition demonstrations.

The Residences
Perkins Park...
@
two bedroom luxury apartments.
The project, developed by Mira Development and Charter Environ-mental, joins
their initial development the 183-unit Lofts at -Perkins Park in the former Hub Ho1sery
and Mc Quade buildings (opened in 2009), as well as a 370-space parking garage, in
bringing life back to that section of the neighborhood.
In addition to the Residences @ Perkins Park, the mill complex's iconic administration
building is currently being renovated and will be leased
to
UMass
Lowell's Office
of
Advan
cement.
"We thank
you for never
giving up on
this proJect,"
Golden said
to Bob ThlhmJe,
of Mira, and
Development Adam Baacke, the Historic Board, the Development Services Department,
and the Department of Public Works, as well as the Lowell National Historical Parle m making
the project a reality and making the process as easy and enjoyable as possible.
Lynch returned the compliment, saying Delhome, Walsh Jr., their team were a
pleasure to work with.
"Lowell is really a city on the move, you can see that here today," Lynch said,
adding his only regret about the project is that the administration building is being leased to
UMass Lowell.
"I was hoping it would be made available as a City Manager residence," quipped
Lynch, who is planning to move into the city's downtown.
his team, adding
that not even
he, the most
optimistic guy
in town could
have imagined
what the site
would become.
Mayor
•
Patrick Mmphy,
who recently returned from the Mayors Institute on
City design conference in Charleston, South Carolina
said "Any mayor who attended would find themselves
lucky to find a project like this in their downtown and
close to the waterfront."
While it was a day of celebration, there was an
aura of sadness as well, because one of the keys to the
redevelopment, Ed Walsh Jr. of Walsh Construction
was not there to see the project through. Walsh, 52, died
unexr,ectedly in January.
'Ed loved the ci~ and would have loved this
today," said Delhome. 'He was passionate about the
city on many levels."
Walsh's wife Mary and father Ed Walsh Sr. were
in attendance and participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony.
Delhome praised the city's government including
City Manager Bernie Lynch. Assistant City Manager
and Director of the Department of Planning and

Theresa Park, who also spoke of the
importance of immigrant-run businesses
at Lowell Heritage Partnership's recent
Lowell: The Entrepreneurial City event,
echoed those sentiments
in discussing this initiative
"The City of Lowell has a
great history of immigrant
entrepreneurs who have
helped to shape the city to
what it is now. Our city's
character is very much
defined by the different
cultures that have shaped
our business communiKhmerPostUSA was
one of the local businesses
highlighted. On October
.
21st, the City of Lowell Economic
Development Office facebook page posted
an image of the paper's July ribbon cutting
in Downtown Lowell and provided a
description of the organization.
Other local entrepreneurs and businesses highlighted so far include Ely Hsu
(Tepthida Khmer), Gnanesh Dholakia
(Bollywood Fashions), Rosemary Agbede
(Unique You Salon), and Marcia Strauss
(Lowell Naturalization and Citizenship
Services). Check back at www.facebook.com/CityOfLowellEconomicDevel

dress will drop down to her waist and she
will come to life and haunt the community. Those who believe the legend
leave tokens like coins or jewelry or even
baseballs to gain the favor of the figure
but no one has ever seen her move.
This statue marks the burial place
of Clara Bonney who died in Lowell
in 1894 of tuberculosis at the age of 39.
She was married to Judge Charles S.
Lilley and was the only child of Judge
Arthur Bonney and his wife Emma.
After she died her family hired the
famous artist Frank Elwell to create
this monument for Clara. Elwell
called the sculpture "New Life."
No one knows how this statue
became connected with the legend of
the witch. It seems unfair to Clara
Bonney who lived a good life that was cut
short by a deadly disease. But throughout
the year and especially on Halloween,
many people visit this monument and
wonder about its special powers.
Lowell Cemetery is located at 77
Knapp Avenue in Lowell, right next to
Shedd Park. It was founded in 1841 and
is still an active cemetery that is open to
anyone regardless of religion, race or
national origin. For more information, go to www.lowellcemetery.com.

Rainsy ...
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6
This is not the first time that
Mr.Rainsy has promised to return tothe
countryafter being sentenced overcharges
he claimed Mr. Hun Sen had a hand in.
Mr. Rainsy also decided to leave the
country fur more than a year in 2005 facing
charges that he had defamed Mr. Hun Sen
and then National Assembly and Funcinpec
President Prince Noradom Ranariddh.
Vol 07 Issue 133-July 13th- 26th. 2013
In November 2005, after month sin
self-imposed exile, Mr. Rainsy promised
to return to the country" in the near future."
In Decemberof that year, he was sentenced
inabsentia to 18 months in prison for
defamation. lhree months later, Mr.
Rainsy was pardonedby King Norodom
Sihamoniafter writing public letters of
apology to both Mr.Hun Senand Prince
Ranariddh.
Despite numerous calls frominterna-
tional donors for the governrnentto allow
Mr. Rainsy'sreturn to contest July's poll,
nosuch political bargain has beenstruck in
the lead-up to this year'sparliamentary
election.
In July 2012, Surya Subedi, the
U.N.'s special rapporteur for human rights
in Cambodia, included Mr. Rainsy's return
among alitany of reforms necessary to
ensure free and fair elections.Similar calls
have been made bythe U .S. State
.

Department and theEuropean Union.
In June, Mr. Rainsy was blocked
from entering Thailand,a decision that the
Thai Foreign Ministry said was made to
preventhim from "manipulat[ing] political
activities against the govemmentof
Cambodia." Mr.Rainsy claimed that the
denial ofhis entry was done at the
behestof the administration of Mr. Hun
Sen, a claim that the prime ministerpublicly
denied.

H8mruttr1umn '1
By Richa P. Howe Jr.
On June 25, 2013, Edward Markey,
a Democratic Congressman for the past
37 years, was elected to the United States
Senate by the voters of Massachusetts.
overcome the votes from the cities.
The big victory for Markey in
Lowell was partly due to the hard
work of many volunteers in the city
but his campaign received a big assist
on the Sunday before the election
when City Councilor Vesna Nuon and
former City Councilor Rithy Uong
Markey defeated Gabriel Gomez
statewide, 55% to 45%, in a special
election that saw only 27% of the state's
registered voters participate by voting
in the election.
Markey won the city of Lowell,
58% to 42% (5656 votes to 4150 votes)
and almost every big city in the state
including Boston, Worcester, Springfield,
Fall River, New Bedford, Brockton and
organized a rally for Ed Markey at
Pailin City which was attended by
many Cambodian people of Lowell.
This special election was necessary
when John Kerry resigned from the
U.S. Senate to become Secretary of
State. Because Ed Markey was only
elected to complete John Kerry's term
in the Senate, Markey must run again
for a full six-year term in the 2014
Lawrence. Gomez won a great many
state election.

and props. There were few spoken lines,
which made the audience pay extra attention
to the actors. Overall, it was a very captivating and emotional performance. It
paid tribute to some of the victims of the
Khmer Rouge and the emotional performance even made audience members
to tear up.
What I liked the best about the event
was that it brought people of different
backgrounds together. The audience was
filled with the young, the old, and people
of different ethnicities. This collection of
people was also represented within the
performers. The students in the UMass
Lowell World Music Ensemble learned
how to play traditional Asian instruments
and provided the live music for the dance
performances. To my untrained ear, the
students' accompaniment to the performances sounded flaw less. The event brings
people together and gives the opportunity
to learn about Asian cultures. It gives
attendees a background of history, but
also displays the evolvement since. The
incredible performances are worth attending, and tickets are only $10. If you get
the chance to go next year, I would recommend it.

The Durgin Hall auditorium was filled
on a Friday night as UMass Lowell hosted
its annual Asian American Cultures
Festival on April 18th. The event featured
performances by Angkor Dance Troupe,
Flying Orb Productions, and the UMass
Lowell World Music Ensemble. The
Angkor Dance Troupe had three performances.
The first being a classical dance called
the White Dove dance, which featured the
troupe's youngest female dances. The
second was the Good Crop dance, which
a folk dance. The fmal performance was a
scene fro m Reamker, which is the
troupe's original production of the
Cambodian version of the Ramayna story,
entitled Neang Seda and the Test of Fire.
Following an intermission, the Flying
Orb Productions presented a short film
and live performance of the Memory
Box, which is a tale about Chantrea, a
survivor of the Khmer Rouge.
Of all the performances, I found the
Memory Box the most interesting. I
enjoyed how the film gave a brief synopsis
of the tale before the live performance,
which took a modem approach in storytelling. The performers used dance and
movement to act out characters, scenes,

Letter from City Councilor Rita M. Mercier
to the Community

1m0trujt
First let me say that I never respond to blog sit~ let alone read
them~ but som~ne alluded me to the fact that .Jerry Nutter had
a particular interesting one wher~ he reported that a
Cambodian Gover:nment spokesman~ Pbay Siphan, made some
insulting, sexist, racist and undiplomatic remarks about me
and that people were forming a petition for an apology from
him for those remarks.

Let me thank Jerry for informing his followers about the event
that took place in city hall last Tuesday as well as thank the
people who commented in a positive way and signed that
petition. Please know you owe me nothing but again 1 am
grateful.

Names ·do not hurt me. However, what hurt me was the lie that
I have no capacity to live with divers.e people. I have lived with
a wonderful diverse person for many years, he was my father
an immigrant, born in Poland, in a . ranco American
F
neighborhood, going to an Irish Catholic school. At a very
young age diversity peeked my interesL I saw the pride in
people who came from different countries and how they ·missed
their homeland but not the oppression. It intrigued me as to
bow we could come from different lands and yet be the same,
have the same goals and just expect to be treated fairly.

What I saw last Tuesday at the meeting was "Democracy at its
very BEST". My heart swelled with pride as people spoke for
what they believed in. I even thought how I admi.red the
courage of those that spoke on the opposite view. This would
not be tolerated in Cambodia. I know that, because former
Mayo.r Rodney Elliott and I saw the jailing for over a year, of
ten women, whose only crime was that of fighting for thei.r land
and homes whic.h were taken unjustly from them.
I will agree with the government spokesman when he says that
I am prejudice. He is perfectly right. 1 am prejudice ..... to
those that inflkt harm on others, prejudice to those who are
corrupt and violate people's human rights. I am prejudice to
what 1 saw in Cambodia when their High School was turned
into a prison where a huge wooden box was a torture chamber
to men who would not reveal the location of the rest of their
families. With their hands tied behind their backs they were
submerged over and over again in the water to which many
drowned to save their family. I saw the bones and skulls of the
dead stacked high in a monument that overlooked the. killing
fields. So yes, I am damn prejudice when women were
tortun:d, as well, by clipping off their nipples with a shat-p
instrument to make them tell where their children are.. I cry
as I write this for this horrendous situation actually happened.
and l saw pictures of the torture~ So yes I am prejudice to
these atrocities, where people left the country of their birth,
that they .loved in search of freedom. They journeyed many
miles and eventually came here in Lowell. Having visited your
beautiful country of Cambodia I feel that I know you better.
I am not the smartest or the best city councilor but I am FAIR
and as long as the last breath is in m~ whether 1 am a
councilor or not I will still speak up for justice, just as I did
when the lady called me with a problem with a $10,000 dollar
water bill. She was the first to alert me and she was
Cambodian. Because of her, she changed the billing practice.
We now have new water meter boxes and people got fired
because things were not done properly. This is the American
way for which our veterans fought for and to whom l owe my
greatest respect to.
Please know that I respect all people who do things right and
respectful, if I can do it so can you and if the laws says I cannot
do it then neither will you. It is all about beinf't fair.
In closing let me say that I admire people who get involved in
their community. The city council chair that I am sitting in
each week is not min~ I just used it each week to deliver your
message. The building that we were all in belongs to everyone,
it is just as much yours as it is mine. So let it be known that I
am so proud of your accomplishments Tuesday. Together we
can make great things happen. Thanks, Rita M. Mercier

that he believed the injured man, Paul
Hayes, had 1'somehow tripped and
fell" and that his bodyguards would
have been arrested had he been
assaulted.
Paul Hayes lies on the ground on
April 9 in a parking lot in Long
Beach, Califorllia, where he claims he
was assaulted by a bodyguard for Hun
Manet, in a photograph posted to the
Cambodia-America
Alliance
Facebook page.
Mr. Hayes, a private investigator,
was attempting to serve a subpoena
for a U.S. federal lawsuit to Lt. Gen.
Manet on April 9 outside a restaurant
when, he claims, a bodyguard lifted
him and threw him to the ground
head-first, damaging his spine.
"I can confirm that the case is
being investigated and is assigned to a
Detective in our Violent Crimes
Detail," Brad Johnson, a spokesman
for the Long Beach police department, said in an email Saturday. "That
detective will be back to work on
Monday."
Mr. Johnson added that no arrests
had been made but that police were
present when Mr. Hayes was allegedly assaulted, due to a protest being
held against Lt. Gen. Manet's Khmer
New Year trip to the U.S.
"On 4/9/16 at 5:22p.m., officers
were on standby to assist with keeping the peace during a protest in the
1400 block of Atlantic Avenue when
they were contacted by a victim of a
battery," he said.
"The victim [Mr. Hayes] advised
them he was a private investigator and
was attempting to serve a subpoena to
Hun Manet, Deputy Chief of Staff of
the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces,"
he added.
"When he attempted to serve the
subject he was pushed to the ground
by unknown suspects and struck his
head," he said. "Investigation remains
ongoing."
Mr. Hayes, who spent much of
last week in intensive care and
remains in a neck brace, said on
Sunday that he was pleased that
police were investigating the case but
knew little more about it.
"When my wife brought me
home from the hospital on Thursday,
we stopped by the police department
and then I got a call from a detective
who was at the hospital looking for
me. That's all I've heard," Mr. Hayes
said.
Lt. Gen. Manet has not responded to multiple requests for comment
about Mr. Hayes or the lawsuit.
However, in an interview with
the editorial board of the Lowell Sun
newspaper in Massachusetts on
Saturday, Lt. Gen. Manet was asked
about the subpoena that was being
delivered by Mr. Hayes.
"The day I arrived, I didn't even
know until I saw it on social media
the next day from Cambodia, people
saying that you are being sued for this
and that," Lt. Gen. Manet said, before
denying that his bodyguards assaulted
Mr. Hayes. Continued to Page 27

IN BLOW FOR IMMUNITY, LAWMAKER ARRESTED
by AunPheap and Alex Willemyns
I April 12, 2016
Demolishing the constitutional protection forbidding the arrest of lawmakers
without National Assembly consent,
police apprehended opposition lawmaker
Urn Sam An early Monday morning in
Siem Reap City over his advocacy against
Vietnamese border intrusions.
One of the architects of a CNRP
campaign last year to embarrass the government for allowing Vietnamese civilians
and soldiers to arbitrarily claim sovereign
Cambodian territory, Mr. Sam An was
arrested hours after returning from exile
in the U.S. and Europe.

in the act of a crime-referred to by the
Latin phrase "in flagrante delicto"-he was
seized over Facebook posts written last
year, said Justice Ministry spokesman
Chin Malin.
"We arrested him for discrimination,
using fake maps and incitement causing
insecurity in society," Mr. Malin said by
telephone on Monday. "Police see that
these are crimes, so they arrested him for
questioning."
"They will send this case to court,
and the prosecutor will charge him
according to these crimes," Mr. Malin
said, adding that Mr. Sam An was being
detained at the Interior Ministry. "He will
be sent to court tomorrow."
On Monday afternoon, however, Mr.
Sam An was also transferred briefly from
the ministry to the municipal court for
questioning, and used the opportunity to
call out to reporters.
"This is an unjust case. I have been
accused of incitement and causing turmoil
in society," he said.
Mr. Malin, the spokesman, said Mr.
Sam An's provocative and public
Facebook posts from the U.S. last year,
which accused the CPP of complicity in
Vietnamese incursions into Cambodia
and were widely covered by the media,
rendered his case "in flagrante delicto."
"I give, as an example, that if Mr.
Urn Sam An killed someone and escaped
but then returned, the police could arrest
him because he committed an obvious
crime, and everyone knows he did it
before," Mr. Malin said.
"What he did in 2015 is considered
as flagrante delicto. Even if it happened in
the past, it's still considered flagrante
delicto from a legal and technical perspective."
It is not clear which of Mr. Sam An's
many Facebook posts violated the law,
but the lawmaker last year continued to
accuse the CPP of using fake border maps
long after August 21, when Prime
Minister Hun Sen warned that such
claims would lead to arrest.
The lawmaker also often posted
what he said were the correct French colonial maps of Cambodia's eastern border
with Vietnam, which the Constitution dictates
are the only ones that can be used for border
demarcation.
"I say the government's maps are
illegal because those maps differ from the
maps stipulated in Article 2 of the
Constitution," Mr. Sam An wrote in
September, calling Mr. Hun Sen's maps of
the Cambodian-Vietnamese border an
"inheritance left by the Yuon in the
1980s."
"Yuon" is a word for the Vietnamese
considered pejorative by many but often
used by the opposition, which has long
sought to take advantage of the fact that
Vietnam installed Mr. Hun Sen and his
government in power during its 1979 to
1989 military occupation of Cambodia.
Monday's arrest, which was carried
out months after Mr. Sam An's alleged
crime-and while he was withdrawing
money from an ATM, according to deputy
Siem Reap provincial police chief Huot
Sothy-now raises questions about the
future of the legal immunity granted to
lawmakers.
The privilege is provided to all elected
lawmakers by Article 80 of the Constitution,
which reads: "The accusation, arrest, or
detention of an assembly member shall be
made only with the permission of the
National Assembly ... except in case of
flagrante delicto."

morning.
Taking a liberal interpretation of the
"in flagrante delicto" exception to a lawmaker's constitutional immunity from
arrest and prosecution, which allows for
arrest when a lawmaker is caught redhanded, police arrested Mr. Sam An after
his return from an extended stay overseas.
"Police arrested Urn Sam An last
night in Siem Reap," General Sopheak
said, explaining that the arrest was similar
to that of opposition Senator Hong Sok
Hour, who was also arrested despite his
parliamentary immunity.
"The case of Urn Sam An not different
from the case of Hong Sok Hour, because
he criticized the government about selling
land to Vietnam and he also criticized the
government for using fake maps," he said.
It is not yet clear exactly what crime
Mr. Sam An stands accused of committing.
Mr. Sok Hour was arrested in August
last year on the order of Prime Minister
Hun Sen after he used a fake diplomatic
border treaty between Vietnam and
Cambodia during a lecture-posted in a
video to Facebook-at the height of the CNRPs
campaign against alleged Vietnamese
border encroachments.
He remains in jail, in spite of his parliamentary immunity, with the CPP-dominated Senate having met and decided it
did not have to strip his immunity because
the video counted as "in flagrante delicto."
Mr. Sam An himself was at the fore
of that border campaign, often accusing
the government of using Vietnamesedrawn border maps, even after Mr. Hun
Sen said he would arrest anybody who
leveled such accusations against the government.
Local media reported on Monday
morning that Mr. Sam An was now being
questioned by anti-terrorism police at the
Ministry of Interior in Phnom Penh but
Gen. Sopheak said that he could not confirm
the reports.
"I do not know where Urn Sam An
was detained. I wish to hide this information,"
Gen. Sopheak said.
CNRP spokesman Yim Sovann said
Mr. Sam An was still entitled to his
immunity, as the National Assembly had
not voted with a two-thirds majority to
strip him of it. Neither party holds such a
superrnajority in parliament.
"It's against the Constitution. Urn
Sam An is still a member of parliament,
he has immunity and he yet was arrested
last night in Siem Reap," Mr. Sovann
said, rejecting the idea !hat he was caught
"in flagrante delicto."
"This was a long time ago, and no
one was talking about that. Before the
arrival of Urn Sam An, there was no information about that. He arrived in
Cambodia, and then there was information,"
he added.
Yet Justice Ministry spokesman
Chin Malin said the arrest was legal given
the "in flagrante delicto" exception to a
lawmaker's immunity from prosecution.
"This case is legal because according
to the crimes of 'in flagrante delicto,' we
do not need to remove any immunity," he
said.
But Mr. Malin said he could not yet
specify exactly what crime Mr. Sam An
had been caught doing.
"I cannot give further comment," he
said. "We are currently filing some documents and I can explain later."

IN BLOW FOR IMMUNITY, LAWMAKER...
A two-thirds majority vote in the
Assembly is required to strip a lawmaker
of his or her immunity-a procedure that
the CPP has taken full advantage of in
past mandates to jail opposition lawmakers. Yet the CPP has not enjoyed such a
supermajority since 2013's election.
Kou!Panha, executive director of the
Committee for Free and Fair Elections,
said the broad interpretation of "in flagrante delicto" used to arrest Mr. Sam An
over six-month-old online posts rendered
the protections provided by Article 80
essentially meaningless.
"The Constitution has become nothing now, in terms of its legal protections
for members of parliament-nothing. The
government can now proceed with arresting members of parliament as it wants,"
Mr. Panha said.
"The National Assembly must
immediately take action and ask the government why they have violated the
Constitution. They can propose a motion
to ask the government to explain why
they did this," he said.
However, Leng Peng Long, the
spokesman for the National Assembly
and its longtime secretary-general, said he
approved of Mr. Sam An's arrest on the
grounds of the apparently flagrant nature
of his online posts.
"I have not yet received any reports
from the authorities, but I think that the
authorities probably have enough evidence to arrest Mr. Urn Sam An," Mr.
Peng Long said. "I think that the arrest did
not break the law, because Mr. Sam An
committed an obvious crime."
It's not the first time a parliamentarian has been arrested despite his immunity. On Mr. Hun Sen's orders in August,
opposition Senator Hong Sok Hour was
jailed for forgery and incitement over a
fake border treaty with Vietnam he used
in a lecture posted on Facebook.

.-
-dollar garment sector at $140 on
Thursday-up from $128-more than
what factory owners wanted but far
less than the raise demanded by some
unions.
The announcement of the decision
followed a morning vote of the Labor
Advisory Committee (LAC), which
proposed a figure of $135 that was
then bumped up by Prime Minister
Hun Sen.
"Today we decided on $135,"
Labor Minister Ith Sam Heng told
reporters. "This is an acceptable result,
although we have not satisfied all the
parties .. .. The prime minister added
$5, so it's $140."
Members of the LAC-made of up
14 government representatives and
seven each from the factories and
unions-cast one vote each on proposals
from the three sides: $133 from the
factories, $135 from the government,
and $160 from the unions.
All but four of the votes were cast
for $135. The unions' proposal garnered two votes and the factories suggestion attracted none. Two representatives abstained.
The new figure will take effect on
January 1, and was decided after
months of negotiations failed to
achieve a hoped-for consensus.
The factories eased off their initial position that they could not afford
any raise whatsoever next year, while
the most strident unions gradually
whittled down their starting demand
for $207. Before Thursday's vote,
they had failed to narrow the gap
between $133 and $160.

KhmerPost U A
KhmerPost USA is the only Cambodian newspaper that has the highest circulation
and is most read in the Catnbodian con11nunities in the East Coast of United States. The
newspaper prints 32 pages an issue - all in color, premium 35 pound stocks paper. It provides
important news and information to a n1arket that is often isolated from the larger cornmunity
due to a language barrier. This includes not only national and international news but practical local information concerning health, education, politics, businesses and community
involve1nent. Found in 2007 by a respectable Cambodian Journalist, Roger Satnkhon Pin,
the former President of Cambodian Journalist Association of Cambodia ( 1994-1997), the
Director of Radio Free Asia, Can1bodian Services in Washington D.C (1998-2003), and
the founder and broadcaster ofCambodian-A1nerican news through five Radio Stations
around the U.S (2004-2008).

Pardoned terrorist and political
hopeful SournSereyRatha returned
from years of self-imposed exile
Thursday, touching down at Phnom
Penh International Airport to a muted
welcome from a couple of hundred
supporters, some of whom knew little
about why they were there and came
because they had been given rice and
tique of the government.
"I have never recognized that I
was guilty and I have never recognized the court system in Cambodia,"
he said. "The courts do not have justice, and they cannot give justice to
the victims. So in the end the person
who sued me is the person who pardoned me."
Mr. SereyRatha has dropped his
most strident ideas-an Arab Spring-
cash.
Mr. Ratha's return capped a
bizarre reversal of fortune for the dissident, who was branded a terrorist by
the ruling CPP in 2013 on scant evidence and sentenced in absentia to
seven years in prison in January.

Penh International Airport on Thursday
after several years in self-imposed
exile. (SivChanna/The Cambodia Daily)
Out of the blue and without
explanation, Prime Minister Hun SenMr. SereyRatha's loudest critic- engineered his royal pardon in July. A few
days later, the Ministry of Interior
allowed the Khmer Power Party
(KPP) to register, with Mr.
SereyRatha at its helm.
Mr. SereyRatha arrived on a midmorning flight from Bangkok with a
small retinue of assistants and advisers and knelt just outside the airport's
arrivals gate to be splashed with holy
water and pelted with jasmine petals
by a group of monks.
After that, he launched into a cri-
style uprising and a U.S. military base
on Phu Quoc island, which Cambodia
does not even own-but he promised
Thursday that he would keep pushing
for reforms, starting with elections.
"If the election system does not
change to be just and free, the people
will always lose," he said. "We don't
want Cambodian people to lose; we
want the people to win, so they can
decide the nation's destiny."
Mr. SereyRatha has spent the past
nine years away from Cambodia,
mostly in the U.S., where he courted
support from the Cambodian diaspora
across the U.S ., Canada and Europe
with his populist agenda and his
steadfast criticism of Mr. Hun Sen's
long-ruling CPP.
The dissident has boasted of
being able to call on hundreds of thousands of supporters across Cambodia if
he wished. But there has been no sign
that this is the case, and his popularity
at home remains untested.
Still, hoping to project support,

Prime Minister Hun Sen addressed a
group of Cambodian expatriates in New
York on Thursday, calling for an end to
politically divisive rhetoric and assuring
them that he was speaking as a government
leader who represented all Cambodians,
not as a party politician.

his leadership.
"I am delivering this speech as a

Cambodia is walking on the right path for
development in all sectors," he said.

The prime minister also called for an

end to political slurs, asking Cambodians
to embrace their commonalities and focus
on the future.
"Please, stop smearing each other,
meaning that we should not care about the
past as we all have the same Khmer
blood," he said.
Mr. Hun Sen then launched into a
critique of the CNRP, saying that the
opposition party had abused the "culture
of dialogue" -his and CNRP President

Rhona Smith, the U.N.'s new
special rapporteur on human rights in
Cambodia, on Tuesday addressed the
U.N. Human Rights Council (HRC)
in Geneva for the first time, telling the
body that she planned to focus on
marginalized people in the country.
Ms. Smith's appearance at the
HRC comes less than a week after she
concluded a nine-day trip to Cambodia
-her first since being approved as
Surya Subedi's successor in Marchduring which she met with government officials, opposition politicians
and human rights defenders.
"In addition to monitoring and
building on the work on my predecessors,
I believe my contribution could be to
focus on the situation of specific marginalized groups," Ms. Smith said.

Ms. Smith said that land-titling
and other efforts to address land rights
issues were "beginning to see a
degree of success."
"However, much remains to be
addressed, particularly for the most
marginalized communities such as
indigenous people," she added.
Ms. Smith also drew attention to
concerns expressed by local and international NGOs that the freedoms of
assembly, association and expression
were being restricted as the country
neared commune elections in 2017
and a national election in 2018.
"This is a matter of concern given
that the ability of all persons to obtain
redress and contribute to finding solutions to land, labor and other disputes
so often depends on their ability to
peacefully exercise such freedoms ,"

on Saturday to call on developed
nations to fulfill their pledges to commit
at least 0.7 percent of their annual
income to foreign aid.
Speaking at a summit on the
U.N.'s development goals, Mr. Hun
Sen said it was important that wealthy
countries respect their obligations for
official development assistance
(ODA).
"Forging a consensus on the post2015 development agenda is a major
achievement by our global leaders.
However, ensuring the success of this
agenda remains as a big challenge for
all of us," Mr. Hun Sen told the
Assembly.
"For this reason, I believe we
should all jointly resolve to address
the key issues as follows: One, ensuring
the fulfillment of donor commitments
to achieve the target of 0.7 percent of
gross national product in ODA to
developing countries, and 0.15 to 0.2
percent of gross national income
[GNI] in ODA to the least developed
countries," the prime minister added.
Few countries have ever reached
either of the goals for aid, which were

'TERRORIST'-TURNED-POLITICIAN ...
by Chheang Ron, the KPP's chief for
Samraong district. He said he knew
nothing about the KPP, either, and had
not even heard of the party until three
months ago.
Mr. Ron said he had not yet
received rice or cash, but believed he
would.
"I hope the KPP will help me
soon," he said.
Party Plans
Mr. SereyRatha is wasting no
time kick-starting his party now that
he is back.
The KPP will hold its first party
congress today and a training seminar
for monks and students on how to
become politicians on Saturday. After
that, Mr. SereyRatha will embark on a
tour of the KPP's provincial offices.
But despite these official activities, Mr. SereyRatha has yet to commit to fielding candidates for the
upcoming commune and national
elections in 2017 and 2018, respectively. He has set a list of conditions
that the government must meet before
he enters the races, including an overhaul of the National Election
Committee to scrub its membership of
all political affiliations.
If the KPP does run, Lev Tol

the party lined up about 200 people in neon green KPP shirts waving
small Cambodian and American flags
to greet Mr. SereyRatha at the airport
Thursday.
But out of six green-clad supporters interviewed by reporters, none
knew anything about the KPP except
that it was headed by Mr. SereyRatha.
One woman said she had become a
party supporter because the KPP had
started showering her and her neighbors with gifts.
"I love the party because [Mr.
SereyRatha] is a good person. He
helps the people because he provides
rice every month," said Chok Lina,
who made the trip from Takeo
province with a vanload of neighbors.
She said her family started
receiving a monthly supply of 50 kg
of rice and 50,000 riel (about $12.50)
a month from the KPP three months
ago, about the same time Mr.
SereyRatha was pardoned. She knew
nothing about his policies and said the
gifts were the only reason she agreed
to come to Phnom Penh to greet him.
"It's the same for everyone," she
said.
She and her neighbors had been
rounded up for the trip to Phnom Penh

wants to be the party's candidate in
Siem Reap. He came out to the airport
Thursday in a party shirt and pin,
brandishing a megaphone.
"I support SournSereyRatha
because the KPP has three big points,"
he said. "He helps the people; he
wants to cancel the National Election
Committee; and SournSereyRatha
asks that all people have the right to
vote, even those who live abroad."
Mr. Tol said he also liked the
party president's plans to extend public school instruction from half a day
to all day, and wipe all Vietnamese
residents without Cambodian citizenship off the voter rolls.
Agreeing to run at all would be
another
turnaround
for
Mr.
SereyRatha, who has built much of
his rebuke of the CPP around the
claim that it has stayed in power over
the past 22 years thanks to a hopelessly corrupt electoral system.
The government's court case
against the dissident was based on his
thwarted efforts to have T-shirts distributed across the country just ahead
of the 2013 national election, printed
with a message urging people not to
vote. The case also involved his
attempt, amid the street protests that
followed the election, to hand out
1,000 yellow roses to police and soldiers posted across Phnom Penh along
with stickers that urged them to "turn
your guns against the despot," a reference to Mr. Hun Sen.
He was convicted in January of
incitement, plotting against the government and obstructing elections.
Rights groups dismissed the case
as baseless and politically motivated,
and since Mr. SereyRatha's pardon the
government has never explained its
change of heart about the alleged terrorist. Interior Ministry officials said
only that he had changed his ways and
would be welcomed back.
Political observers have suggested that the CPP wants Mr. SereyRatha
back in Cambodia so he can draw
some votes away from its real political opposition, the CNRP, in the coming elections. Both the CPP and the
KPP deny the claim.
Mr. Tol, however, put forth an
alternate theory.
"SournSereyRatha says the
truth," Mr. Tol said. "Maybe the U.S.
put pressure on the government [to
pardon him] because he is a real
democrat."
With his leader back, Mr. Tol was
confident that the party could push the
CPP out of power come 2018.
"In Siem Reap there are already a
lot of people who support the KPP.
About 200 people," he said.

UN ENVOY MAKES FIRST ...
the special rapporteur said.
In response to Ms . Smith's
speech, the permanent representative
of Cambodia to the U.N. office at
Geneva, Ney Samol, told the HRC
that the Cambodian government was
committed to strengthening the rule
of law and had made progress in
addressing land issues.

"There is no room for forced
evictions in Cambodian policy," Mr.
Samol said, adding that the
Cambodian government "temporarily
recognizes the people's right to illegal
land occupation until they find a legal
place of residence."
