In Illinois, a Day of Remembrance

The Cambodian Association of Illinois is preparing for its annual Day of Remembrance, a moment of reflection for the survivors and victims of the Khmer Rouge. Phavann Chhuan, head of the National Cambodian-American Association, told VOA Khmer via Skype that the day of commemoration helps remind Cambodians in America where they came from as a way to help them overcome today’s challenges.
