Dear Sir/Madam and my Dearest Compatriots

               

The Cambodian soldiers, people, and Buddhist monks in Preah Vihear need us right now! They are standing guard at the highest mountain safekeeping our spiritual and inherited treasure - Prasat Preah Vihear.  Under the hot days and cold nights, they do not have the necessary supplies to keep them strong. 

Without long and strenuous explanation, the Cambodian (Khmer) Community of New Zealand Incorporation in collaboration with other Cambodian communities including Sangha, are inviting you and the Khmer people within the Auckland and other regions to attend a Humanitarian Buddhist Ceremony, to raise funding to help make supplies available such as food, shelter, water, medicines and many other necessities. 

The programme for the Humanitarian Buddhist ceremony will be held at the following place:

Wat Khemara Phirataram
455 Porchester Road
Takanini
Auckland
New Zealand

On Saturday 9th August from 3pm to 7pm, and Sunday 10th August from 8am to 12pm.

We thank you for your generosity, and greatly appreciated your cooperation and participation. We look forward to seeing you at the temple. Thank you.

7/07/2008 Unesco listed Preas Vihear in the world heritage.

CCNZ & Congratulation to Preah Vihear temple has been designated as a Unesco world Heritage success full .N.4 (7.07.2008) N.1 Angkor (1992).
Thank to all the people who had been working for this.

Preah Vihear temple has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site after years of efforts by Cambodian officials to get the 11th-century Hindu monument listed, sparking jubilant celebrations across entitle of Cambodia.

The inscription, approved on July 7 by the 21-nation World Heritage Committee during a UNESCO meeting in Quebec, Canada,

World Heritage 7th/july/2008



Situated on the edge of a plateau that dominates the plain of Cambodia, the buildings that make up the sanctuary are dedicated to Shiva. The temple dates back to the first half of the 11th century AD. Nevertheless, its complex history can be traced to the 9th century, when the hermitage was founded. This site is particularly well-preserved, mainly due to its remote location near the border with Thailand.

The site is exceptional for three reasons: its natural situation on a promontory, with sheer cliffs overlooking a vast plain and mountain range; the quality of its architecture adapted to the natural environment and religious function of the temple; and, finally, the exceptional quality of the carved stone ornamentation of the temple.


World Heritage 1992


Angkor is one of the most important archaeological sites in South-East Asia. Stretching over some 400 km2, including forested area, Angkor Archaeological Park contains the magnificent remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire, from the 9th to the 15th century. They include the famous Temple of Angkor Wat and, at Angkor Thom, the Bayon Temple with its countless sculptural decorations. UNESCO has set up a wide-ranging programme to safeguard this symbolic site and its surroundings.
