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!

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.

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.

at the pagodas and play tra~ r-,~ j
ditional games such as

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.

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.

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
Children Assistance. The money
assisted street children in obtaining their basic needs such as food
and shelter. It also assisted in purchas ing sc hool su ppli es such as
books and book bags.
Last but not least, LCC members
would like to thank all the team s
for their participation, good sportsmanship, and volunteering efforts in the soccer tournament. We are looking
forward to seeing everyone at the Water Festival on August 19, 2000.
LCC members meet with UYCAF (United Young Cambodian Americans Foundation)

Light of Cambod ian Children (LCC) have just recently finished the electi on
process for 2000-200 I. Announcement of the new o fficer s will be made
public at an Awards Banquet, to be scheduled for August. Please look out for
information regarding this eve nt. Aside from that, many members worked
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

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

�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

~ e ~~ €>t~
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.

man y elderly Cambodian refugee s do not ha ve surviving children , or
may have been unable to locate and reunite with their survi ving children or relatives. In Lowell , Cambodian senior citizens are often isolated. They often do not speak English. They have limited access to
social services because of lan guage and cultural barriers.
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.

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
policy-making, leadership body, and community relations and connections.

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. 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.
At a time where violence touches every society and hurts our children, the Cambodian
Mutual Assistance Association of Greater Lowell Inc. and its proud sponsors bring to
Lowell a play about children of war-torn countries.

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

··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.

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
aid families and individuals with unexpected
life tragedies. If you would like to make a
donation into this fund, please make checks
payable to the CMAA and send to:
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
to manufacturing to professional.

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
the community. There are four classes of computer training and two classes of electronics
training. Both training are conducted on weekday and week-end. The MSSP staff had enrolled 35 clients in the computer
training and 23 more clients in the soldering training. They will finish their
training at the end of this July.

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
Third Rail Wireless Communications
- John Cardozo
Spike Technologies

"A New Millennium Dinner Gala"
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
Supermarket, Safeway Insurance, and Asia World Enterprise.
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.
