Dear Sir and Madam,
We have a small community of Indians who live in Siem Reap, about 50 people, many of those people have been in Cambodia since more than 6-7 years, speaking good Khmer, and some got Cambodian family. They living legally with the business visa, work as clothes and mosquito net seller, some are having small shop or restaurant. They have been integrating with the Cambodia life style and culture as well. They love Cambodia very much, as how they love Lord Buddha too.
On 28 August 2013 they will have special celebration of Sri Krishna Janmastami. It is the appearance day of Lord Krishna, 5000 years ago in the place call Mathura, India. As we know the Lord is taking so many pastimes, he appears in many different forms reincarnation at many different time and circumstance. That way, we than know so many names of Lord, like Krishna, Rama, Narayana, Wisnu, Buddha, Allah, etc, But actually the Lord are one, which by his eternal power he expand himself in different forms.
In that very auspicious day we want to make a parade festival, both for praying to Lord Krishna and expressing the thanks to Cambodian of whom they have been living since a long. The parade will be walk start from the Yasodapura Asrham at Boray Premprey to old Market, than after to Indian house behind Wat Bo Pagoda where the another program of ceremony will taking place. All about 50-60 people, include Indian, Cambodian, and some foreigners. We will having one car to put the deity of Lord Krishna, with some decoration beside it and the sound system to facilitate our chanting Hare Krishna Maha mantra head by the monk from the Asrham. We will bring the picture of Lord Buddha a long with us, and on the way distribute the brochures of the same explanation on this paper, and we will distribute free food; green bean sweet to homeless people on the street or anyone who wanted to tease the food offered to the Lord,
