Regional Bahai Conference - Battambang -Cambodia

Regional Bahai Conference in Battambang, Cambodia I was delighted and happy to spend a few days in Battambang recently with my wife Debbie. I attended a Baha’i Regional Conference, where some 2,100 members of the Baha’i Religion from Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam gathered in this Cambodia's second-largest city for a historic conference that had citizens of all four nations sitting side by side to discuss service activities in their communities. It was very spiritual.  An Official Representative of the Government of Cambodia is seen                                                     delivering the opening remarks I was also amazed by the efficiency of the Cambodian friends, especially the the youths to organize such a large gathering in Cambodia.  This gathering was one of a series of 41 Baha'i conferences being held in major cities around the world. The events began on 1 November in Lusaka, Zambia, and will conclude on 1 March in Kiev, Ukraine.
