A group of 12 paddlers left Brunei yesterday to participate in Cambodia's Bonn Om Touk Water Festival. Also accompanying them is their coach, who will also be taking part in the event held from Nov 23 to 25.
They will be joining paddlers from other Asean member countries in the traditional boat race competition. The annual festival marks the start of fishing season in Cambodia, as well as the reversing of currents in the Tonle Sap River.
Attracting many visitors from abroad, it will also feature other contests, fairs, fireworks and cultural shows.
