4468(II)_Towards the Cambodia Federation of Don Bosco Past Pupils
August 16, 2017
Phnom Penh, Cambodia, 14 August 2017 -- Since 1991 about 25.000 young people received the Salesian education in seven Don Bosco schools in Cambodia and many more thousands in the FMA schools around the country.
During the short animation visit of our EAO regional, Fr. Klement, we organized a brief encounter in the evening of August 15, with the executive committee of our Alumni in Phnom Penh DB Alumni office.
Our Regional councilor shared about the importance to be connected to the World Confederation and prepared us for the incoming visit of the World Vicepresident Mr. Angel Gudina on August 27, 2017. Indeed there are many valuable animation and formation materials available for any local or national group of the Past Pupils.
Indeed our Phnom Penh DBTS has about 10.000 graduates and about 1000 of them are active and involve in the annual and regular activities, celebrations and services. There are three different leaders group coming together for their regular meeting. DBTS Phnom Penh is likely to become a model for other 6 Don Bosco schools in Cambodia, which started also with the animation of their Alumni: Sihanoukville, Kep, Battambang and Poipet.
From his own experience in Canada Fr. Gigi explained how a national Federation could be born and the Past Pupils are excited to see soon a Cambodia Federation of Don Bosco Alumni to be born.
