Vann Nath in the hospital on 16 May 2010 (Photo: http://lecercledesamisdevannnath.blogspot.com/)Dear Friends,
While his health has improved steadily, Vann Nath has decided to fly to Bangkok with his family in order to replace the fistula which allows dialysis through his left forearm. This operation was necessary because the fistula was in bad condition. Removing it was easy and without risk for him. The old fistula has now been taken out. Vann Nath has checked out of the hospital with a temporary fistula. The doctors know him and took really good care of him. Vann Nath has now returned to Phnom Penh. He will have to go back to Bangkok for a medical follow up and for a brand new fistula to be put in a permanent fashion. The new fistula would then last several years and conditions would be met for this health to stabilize as well as possible. Meanwhile, Vann Nath has been eating and sleeping normally, getting stronger every day.
If you want to further support Vann Nath and help him with medical care and dialysis, please send your donation to Le Cercle des Amis de Vann Nath (Vann Nath’s Friends Association), which is chaired by Jean-Sien Kin. This French association has set up a PayPal payment on its website (http://lecercledesamisdevannnath.blogspot.com). You can also contact them by email (asso.cavn@gmail.com) and ask for bank account details. Mailing can be sent to the following address:

who is he ? never heard of his name before .
He's a painter that survived the Tuol Sleng prison(S-21). One of the few last survivors. Should read his autobiography. It's heart- drenching.

សហគមខ្មែរណាម្នាក់ ដូច្នេះតើគេអាចមាន
មុខរកជំនួយពីបងប្អូនខ្មែរបានទេ?
ខ្ញុំក៏ជាជនរង្គ្រោះនៅក្នុងចំណោមពលពតនោះដែរក៏ប៉ុន្តែខ្ញុំមិនមានការសងសិករវាងខ្មែរនឹងខ្មែរនោះទេសព្វថ្ងៃនេះពីព្រោះរឿងសងសិកគ្នាមិនចេះចប់ទេ។ទុកឲ្យតុលាការគេដោះស្រាយវិញទៅចុះ!
Can anyone create a PayPal donation in English. I wanted to donate some money to help him but could not read the French language on the form.
Thanks
