One of the most interesting people I met in Laos as part of Aqua Survey's Anti UXO Effort was Phong Savath (who, like a lot of 20 year olds, prefers to go by his internet tag, which is Peter Kim). This dance performance says without words why I, and everyone else that meets him, have an unmistakable amazement for the triumph of the human spirit.

I have to laugh when I watch this video. Having been lucky enough to meet Phong his dancing is not something you would expect from him. I normally expect him to be a comedian because he is so cheerful and funny when you meet him. Everyday he wakes up to obstacles that make his life that much harder. Makes me rethink my problems and how lucky I am in life. We await more news of his adventures and of course yours too! Thx!
