Jackie Chan, Chinese and Hollywood superstar, recently departed from Cambodia after a three-day visit, leaving his Cambodian fans with satisfaction and unforgettable memories of his third visit to the Kingdom of Cambodia. The visit of Dr. Jackie Chan was sponsored by the International Peace Foundation as one of a series of conferences titled “Bridges: Dialogues Toward a Culture of Peace,” which are being held at and facilitated by The University of Cambodia (UC), a leading institute in Cambodia. Jackie Chan, known as Chhin Long among fans of Hong Kong film, also appeared in a live concert on November 10 at The Southeast Asia Television, where thousands of Cambodian fans enjoyed his performance with famous Khmer singers, including Preab Sowath, Meng Keo Pich Chenda and Him Sivorn.
