11 Oct 08 - Maman Pung an oO bought a book called 'the coroner's lunch' by Colin Cotterill = 100,000k. This is a light hearted fiction story using Lao people and Lao context in the story which is interesting and funny. And we also bought 3 concert tickets = 75,000k. All of these are to support COPE project to help disabled people (oO's good deeds on the occasion of papa's birthday + we'll get to go out to a concert one night).

Maman Pung and oO wish Papa Toum a very happy birthday, good health, wealth,
success and may all your wishes fulfilled (Siddhartha - oO's name).

12 Oct 08 - Donated $31 in the occasion of Papa's birthday (turning 30 yo) to support UNICEF's Water and Sanitation Programs.

The donation will help provide children around the world with health care, clean water, sound nutrition, education, protection from abuse and exploitation, and emergency assistance in times of crisis.
