Khmer Monument

The Bataan Technology Park (BTP) was once home to around 400,000 refugees from 1981-1994. Previously known as the Philippine Refugee Processing Center, the 365-hectare property in Morong, Bataan accommodated Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Laotian refugees, who had received skills and language training, and education before heading to their permanent resettlement area. The refugees left behind traces of Indochinese culture, such as the Khmer Monument, which is reminiscent of Cambodia’s breathtaking Angkor Wat.
