 Khmer Krom Buddhist Temple of Stoney Creek/Hamilton would like to invite all Khmer Buddhists followers and practitioners from all towns and cities in Ontario and elsewhere to a ceremony of Ben Pchum Ben-2009 at the temple. Ben Pchum Ben is also known as Ben Dolnta in Kampuchea Krom (southern Vietnam) and is celebrated by Khmer Krom every year.
The day is a time when many Khmers pay their respects to their deceased relatives. People cook meals for monks, bring offerings to the temple and throw rice near the temple early in the morning, believing that the ghosts of their ancestors will receive it. The festival is celebrated mostly among Khmer Buddhists. Although its a Buddhist holiday in Cambodia, it is not being recognized as a holiday for Khmer Krom in Kampuchea Krom (southern Vietnam) by the Hanoi regime.

In Cambodia, under Prime Minister Hun Sen ruling, Vietnam can do anything in the land of Cambodia as it wishes. Opening Vietnamese school is just one of the programs that is on Vietnam’s list.
In the past years, Cambodia has become one of the countries in the Asia Pacific to have many different ethnic groups to open their own schools. This way, the groups not only safeguard their mother tongue language, they can also safeguard their identity and culture alike. It is very important for different ethnic groups to live in the country, and to feel the sense of belonging.

Having a good education can help enhance one’s life in many aspects.
As we can see on the news released by Vietnamnewsagency.com on Aug 26, 2009, there are many people from different ethnic groups in Vietnam that do not have knowledge about the healthcare systems. These people often are trying to find treatments for their illnesses based on their own superstitions.
