Kampong Cham: The Kampong Cham provincial administration, led by Mr. Un Chanda, Governor of Kampong Cham, on the morning of September 27, 2026, led government officials to bring religious objects and offerings to monks to join the Buddhist community on the first day of the alms ceremony at Wat Chankiri, also known as Wat Phnom Hanchey, in Hanchey commune, Kampong Siem district.
The sacred objects and offerings given to the monks at the above pagoda included 100 kilograms of rice, 5 cases of pure water, 5 cases of orange juice, 5 cases of fish sauce, 5 cases of soy sauce, 5 cases of noodles, 1 large case of milk, 5 kilograms of sugar, 5 kilograms of tea, and some financial contributions.
Please note that Pchum Ben Festival is one of the biggest festivals among all Buddhists. Every year, when the day of the Pchum Ben Festival arrives, all relatives, whether near or far, always travel to gather together, especially parents in their hometowns, to prepare food, rice, and rice cakes to offer to monks living in various monasteries. These are a long-standing tradition among Cambodians.
