Representatives of the Buddhist community from Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam, and representatives of the three major languages of Buddhism in China gathered in front of the Tooth Buddha Pagoda to hold a prayer meeting for world peace and pray for peace, tranquility and people's happiness and well-being.
