The Asia Human Rights and Culture Foundation said on November 4 that the Cambodian Cultural Preservation Team won the gold award at the 12th National Multicultural Family Mother Tongue Dance Festival, held on October 31.

The Cambodian Cultural Preservation Team consists of 17 members, including marriage migrants and foreign workers.

Participants worked diligently at their respective jobs during the day and practiced performances together in the evenings and on weekends to share and preserve the traditional cultures of their home countries. The award is considered especially meaningful because members with different occupations and living conditions came together amid their busy lives to prepare for the performance.

The foundation plans to continue respecting migrants' cultural identities and supporting efforts to preserve traditional cultures, while expanding opportunities for cultural exchange that allow long-established residents and migrants to understand and respect one another.

The event was hosted by Yeonggwang County and organized by the Yeonggwang County Family Center.
