napat said. In addition to students, teachers from ASEAN countries are also taking part in the
camp activities. The 1st International Youth Camp by OBEC took place in 2010.

come together and behave like a multicultural community in which everyone could work to

Nguyen Viet Hoang, a 12th grader from Vietnam, said he believed the AEC would pro-

would usher in better standards of education and be more competitive economically. “There
will be more opportunity to work in international companies,” he added.
