Twenty years of KMB Ancol’s journey and nine years of KMB Serpong are proof of the importance of member and alumni support in maintaining the sustainability of the community. Through the spirit of “United in Dhamma: Blooming Together, Thriving Forever” , KMB Dhammamitta hopes to continue to grow as a harmonious community, supporting each other, and cultivating shared virtue.
