Downtown #VictoriaBC will be filled with music, colour and tradition on April 11 as the Victoria #BengaliCulturalSociety hosts its first outdoor celebration of #PohelaBoishakh - the #Bengali #NewYear. The #FreeEvent, set for #CentennialSquare at noon, marks a milestone for the local Bengali community, bringing one of its most recognized #cultural traditions into the public square. For the first time in Victoria, organizers will stage the #MongolShobhajatra -a “parade of well-being” recognized by #UNESCO. The procession will feature large, handcrafted masks and vibrant artistic structures, accompanied by drumming and music symbolizing #peace and #unity.
The parade is expected to begin around 1 p.m. The celebration will also include live Bengali music and dance performances, a food fair showcasing #SouthAsian cuisine, and vendor stalls offering traditional clothing and handmade goods. Organizers say the event is meant to highlight the #diversity of #cultures on #VancouverIsland while offering residents a chance to engage with Bengali traditions.

I'm laughing so hard at what my Mom just said to me, while asking her if she's still up for sharing her lived experiences from just after we fled Saigon, to two refugee camps, to being sponsored by a Canadian group of church folks to adjusting to life in Canada, in first few years.
Mom said: I remember that you pooped a lot....a lot more than your little brothers. Your Dad called you a toddler shit factory. We'd be rich, if we could have sold your Saigon baby Buddha poop.
What?!? 🤣😂😅 My parents actually discussed this, in depth, before fleeing Saigon.#AsianMastodon #SouthEastAsians #Vietnam #BoatPeople #AsianDiaspora #Displacement #WarSurvivorsForPeace

Ran into one of my Thai friends at Hanami Spring Blossom Market 🌸😊🌸

I'm so happy to have met #Vietnamese folks at work party today! Mom is very happy too because she didn't expect to be connected to new friends today - upon picking me up, after the work party. We gave Julie & her daughter a ride to Tillicum Mall - they live only a few blocks away from there. Julie & my Mom chattered away in Vietnamese, for the whole drive over 💗 Julie only came over from Vietnam, less than 2 months ago. My Mom is one of the first new friends she has met. I love it ❤️
I'm already planning crabbing & shrimping adventures with Phanh & Julie & her daughter 😃 They're all so excited & so are we!

ANALYSIS: #SouthKorea’s immigration dilemma puts #SoutheastAsians in the spotlight

Hi there, I am looking to follow personal #blogs written by #SouthEastAsians, other #Asians, #Africans. Basically not Western. Nothing wrong with the West just that I have a huge RSS feed full of US, UK blogs. I want to diversify my feed.
Apparently, Malaysians like to #blog about 3 things: Food, politics & money 😂
I prefer genuinely personal blogs that are slice of life stuff. If you know of any please recommend to me! 🙏 -
