Cham (both Muslim and non-Muslim) are an important component, focused
on the “Sociocultural Issues of Champa 175 Years after Its Disappearance

Chuck Reed (mayor, San Jose), Musa Porome (chairman, Organizing Committee),
Ahmad Yahya (Member of Parliament, Cambodia; founder, Radio
SapCham [Voice of the Cham]), and R. Obleo (a representative of the
Champa people of the Central Highlands, Vietnam, now living in America).
Session One, “Language and Culture,” moderated by Mohammad Zain
