10th Chairperson of the Forum

Mr Phout Mingsisouphanh, representing the Families of Ex-Police and 10th Chairperson of the Forum of Lao Australian Organisations in NSW, standing next to the Phatthasima at Wat Phra Yortkeo, holding in his hand is the bag of green paw-paws which he will donate to the Lao-Oz Foundation BBQ on Saturday 19/5/2012.  Lao-Oz Foundation has already received a lot of donation such as green paw-paws, chillies, bread, sticky rice, noodles, drinks, fruits and food for their BBQ.  This generosity clearly shows that Lao community in NSW is very much together as "One Community".

All Presidents of the now 16 Members of the Forum take turn in chairing the quarterly meeting of the Forum.  The Chairperson also has the mandate to make final decision on any matters raised at the meeting.
