“We are mostly missionaries, teachers, NGO workers, students etc,” the statement read.
“NaCam is very secular in nature, but it functions like a fellowship. It has its own ministry of reaching out to fellow Naga friends in times of suffering and difficulty,” Wibonbou further said.
“Worshiping, interaction, fun, games and eating Naga dishes are some activities during the meet,” the NaCam statement added.
Every Naga coming to Cambodia is encouraged to enroll himself/herself to NaCam, because NaCam is a home far away from home, it added.
