Today the sweetest 'lil cafe in Newtown - Parliament on King (POK)
is sending a bunch of poetic valentines to coolest wee bar in Luang Prabang, Laos - the Icon Klub and host-poet Elizabeth Vongsaravanh and friends.

from Chennai, India, Sharanya Manivannan
from Yangon, Burma, Thet Swe Win, Aung Myo Khant and members of YEP
from the Irrawaddy Literary Festival in Mandalay, Jennifer McKenzie.

Taking part live at POK will be Chris Raja, Mujib, Abid, Ravi Prasad, Diana Plater, Ben Sutton, Kinga Bisits, Sonia Bible, Rachel Anne Abrahams, Shikha Sahay, Louie Joyce and many more.
