In Their Own Words
| On the new building: | “I like the concrete building better than the old wooden building. It is comfortable for studying.
|
| On his aspirations: | I have never left the village since I was born. Not even to go to Phnom Penh. However, if I can get enough money, I would like to visit Japan. I would also like to be a teacher when I grow up.”

| Message to donor: | “I would like to thank Mr. Nakamura and wish him happiness and prosperity.” |
