A small study of the philosophy of Keloreama village is not merely a string of empty words, but it is a precious pearl that has a million worth of meaningful values of life. Effort to deepen the slogan of the village can be an entrance to uncover various values in local tradition and make it a solid pedestal for life in modern times.
