MRISA

MRISA - MEKONG RIVER INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS ASSOCIATION

Seven school belong to MRISA and compete against each other in sporting and cultural events. This weekend VIS is hosting schools from  Hanoi, Saigon, Phnom Phenh, Bangkok,  and Phuket for a basketball tournament. The opening ceremony this morning was brief, without lawn mowers or Ned Kelly dancers, but similar to the olympics, with teams marching in to the gymnasium with flag bearers and teams in uniform - all very international - well at least south east Asian - different from NEDSA. The cutest part was each elementary grade cheering for a different school.
