In Their Own Words. . .
| On the new building: | “I love the new building because I have never seen a building like this.”
|
| On school subjects: | “I like mathematics best because I like numbers. When I grow up, I will be able to sell things and have my own small business.”
|
| If I could go anywhere…: | “I would go with my family to Angkor to view the temples, because it is the most famous thing in Cambodia.”

| Message for the Aeon Group: | In English: “Thank you!” [She and her brother are taking private English lessons.] |
