Venerable Abbot Savoeung Por, a distinguished monk at Wat Ratanaram since 2021, has been a pivotal figure for the Kampuchea Krom Cultural Centre of NSW Incorporated and the Buddhist Monks Human Rights Council. Since his ordination in 1990 in Kampuchea Krom, now South Vietnam, Abbot Por has dedicated his life to advancing Buddhist teachings and human rights. Fleeing restrictions on Khmer Krom monks in 1999, he sought refuge in Cambodia and later arrived in Australia in 2010, sponsored by the Centre to Promote Cambodian Culture and Buddhism. Abbot Por, originally from Bac Lieu province, is bilingual in Vietnamese and Khmer, which has enhanced his ability to bridge cultures. His efforts include advocating for Cambodian and Khmer Krom communities, and launching the KKCC TV online talk show, which was a crucial information source during the COVID-19 pandemic. His work has elevated Khmer Krom visibility and fostered Australian multiculturalism, benefiting both local and indigenous communities.
