The influence of the arts of people with disabilities is reflected in the participation or opportunities of people with disabilities in society as a whole, so SAORI weaving is a good example of an integrated education of people with disabilities. They especially encourage the participation of equal communities.

Our hope and goal is to successfully implement the SAORI project to attract people with disabilities to acquire knowledge, skills, family income and increase the economy.

From Renail Shop in Japan through Mr. Yoshiyuki Hiwatashi, an employee of CMC in Battambang.

For many years, the reason is that the intellect is not able to grasp knowledge like a normal child. Language and communication in society.

He has the same mental disability as: down Syndrome, he only learned to weave SAORI for a short time because of the lack of support from his family.

Miss So Srey Nay A disabled girl who lives in an orphanage in Kampong Chhnang province has been studying SAORI weaving in her spare time for three years, even though she is studying.

Who never gave up on his dreams. He excelled in weaving his dream krama and helping his teammates.
