Myanmar Trip - Day 5 (Part 2)

After our visit to New Generation Youth Parahita Centre, we went back to the schools we have been to the day before. The school and children from the villages put up this cultural performance as part of their appreciation to FFM for the support FFM has given to the communities and villages in the area.

The performance were incredible to say the least. Having visited the village yesterday, we know how materially deprived they were. Most children belongs to family where their parents are farmers. Yet the children put together this incredible program for us. By comparison, we Singaporean may be rich materially, culturally and in spirit we are much poorer than these children. The dancers and performers in these video clips are probably only between the age of 10 and 14.
