Thanks to our latest Friend of LengPleng – photographer and music aficionado Steve Porte.  “Every Thursday afternoon I consult the LengPleng gig guide to plan which gigs to attend over the week to come, I find it an invaluable resource and one that ought to be supported, nurtured and, where necessary, funded.  Thank you LengPleng for your contributions to the musical life in Cambodia.”

Also thanks to The Deck for renewing for another year.  Upward and onward together!
