These 12 missionaries are on their way to Manila for three weeks of training prior to their return to Cambodia.  The young woman at the right is Chhoeun Kunthy, a returned missionary who serves as their translator during the English-speaking training at Manila.  It is a testimony to the strength of youth that they are all alert and happy.  Most of them were so excited that they didn't get any sleep the night before.  They all speak the Khmer language and three also speak Vietnamese.  None of them (except Kunthy) had ever been on a plane and they were excited about that, too.
